Letter from Mark 17 April 2006

dear Family,

This week has been good. we had stake conference here and elder Ronald a. Rasband from the 70 came and spoke. it was great. all of the full time missionaries got up and sang called to serve in the adult session. it was neat. I got to seek several people in the Lake Mills and say hi.

we get to go to one college or professional sporting event each season for each sport. next monday, the 24th we are going to a baseball game for the brewers vs. the braves. that should be fun. I am excited, there are a ton of missionaries in milwaukee and surrounding area's going to the game.

Elder hill and i are having a good time and getting along fine. he is getting excited to go home, but still has a desire to go out and work most of the time, sometimes he takes some modivation, but most of the time he has been good.

Thankyou for the package, The camera is awesome. i will send the camera home when i get the chance. I don't think i will have to send my winter gear home. president and sister hunt have space in the mission home that they put stuff that missionaries want them to hold for them. as long as it isn't too much stuff they are generally willing to do that, so i might put my coat and stuff in a box and give to them until it starts to get cold.

this past week elder hill and i did a lot of organizing the informaion that we had because we were having a hard time figuring out what had been done by the last missionaries. there is a lot of potential for this area, there are a couple of investigators that were dropped that elder hil has strong ties to that we have started to teach again. he wants to at least commit them to baptism before he goes home on may 19 (i think it is the 19) the members here have done a good job taking care of us. we have had a dinner appointment almost every night. i havent had to buy food since i got here. it has been great.

Thank you for your prayers and support. I Love you all.

Elder Lundberg
