Dear family,

So this week was a little slower.  One investigator has started work so he said we'll rarely be able to meet, another one doesn't answer his phones.  The Xhele family is still progressing towards baptism though, and lately they have some neighbors who have been sitting through the lessons.  It's pretty cool.  They should be getting baptized this Sunday.

We haven't had power lately because the power bills still haven't been paid for the past 9 months.  We don't get the power bills either so the office has to pay them.  Hopefully that gets taken care of soon.

We had a leadership training the other day with Elder Causse, one of the area presidency.  He had come to give President and Sister Neil their release interviews.  They leave Albania on June 29 and President and Sister Ford get here on the 28th.  It seems like lately President Neil is trying really hard to get things ready for the new mission president so the transition goes more smoothly.

I heard the other day that the elders in Kosovo just had a week where they found more than 10 new investigators and had tons of lessons.  It sounds like they're running into quite a bit of success there in Kosovo.

I can't think of too much else that happened this week.

Love,

Elder Wallentine
