Hey there Family,

I've had another fantastic week here in Albuquerque. I know more about my area which is cool. It is a pretty interesting place. It's called the south valley in Albuquerque so you can look it up on Google or something if you'd like. There are a ton of people here and the work is picking up like crazy. We are getting so many new investigators, and it's crazy it's like they are just falling in our lap. We should be setting some baptismal dates this week. That's always exciting. It looks like you guys had an awesome 4th of July, next 4th I'll be there with all of you. Pretty cool huh? Thanks for the money on the card. I had to spend some because there's this Mexican guy that the other elders know who sold us these really sweet soccer jerseys for really cheap. But I suppose that's not too important.

I am really starting to like this area. Like I said it is quite interesting. We've had people having dreams and stuff about how the church is true. It's been really cool to see. I love being a missionary. We talk to so many people who I never would have talked to before. Oh and I saw Heather and some of her family this week. They were down here from Farmington so they took us out to dinner. It was really nice to see them. They are still doing well and Heather is still strong in the church which was a relief for me. Oh and they gave me this really nice tie. It's a Versace and it's real. It was really nice of them but I kinda felt bad because I know that they spent a lot on it. (Oh btw if you happened to want to send me a little care package that would be pretty cool. I've also heard that there are really good old school polyester ties on Ebay. But if you do happen to send me some make sure they aren't the skinny kind.)

So I'm doing really well. Time here is just flying by. It sounds like all is well at home. I am so happy to know that you guys are doing well. Stay active. I've met so many good people who go less active for one reason or another and it breaks my heart. I know that I don't really have to worry though, You guys are awesome. I love you all so much. The Church is true. Let me know if I can do anything for you. Have an awesome day.

Your loving son/brother/friend,
Elder Hullinger
