February 14, 2011 - Villa Dolores, Cordoba, Argentina

Dear Family,

How are you? I am well, (though feeling somewhat afflicted by loud
music at the internet café we're at—next week I'll bring my earplugs!)
and we've had a good week.

We had many investigators at church yesterday, 10 rather than 4 (week
previous). We also had several miraculous contacts. For example, we
went to find a former investigator, who, it turned out, didn't live at
the expected address, but instead found a lady, Valeria, who is
separated from her children, and was feeling quite bad, and angry at
God, until she started praying and reading the Book of Mormon a few
days ago! She's now feeling a lot better, and looking forward to
baptism. We also found a couple, Cynthia and Guillermo, who stopped us
in the street to ask that we give them a Bible and visit them. We gave
them a Book of Mormon too, and they're interested to read the Book of
Mormon cover to cover! We're praying that they find the answers they
need and are receptive to the Spirit.

I apologize that I don't have much writing inspiration today. I am
sending a letter in the mail too.

Thank you very much for your letters—they do brighten my day and
encourage me. I'm glad to hear that you're doing well.

Love,
