Hey Yall,

                Its been a while since I have written one of these. We havent been able to email with all the holidays and the bunch of snow we have gotten. Haha I swear our library closes down for anything you could possibly think of.  But hopefully we will be able to get to email more regularly from now on.

                Things have been going good we are seeing some wonderful miracles here in the branch. On Sunday our church attendance was the highest it has been in a long time, haha granted it was still only about 30 people. But progress is progress we have to start somewhere right? We are really trying to work a lot with the
Investigators that we have right now, as well as a lot of the less-actives.  I want to be able to bring lots more people into the church but we need somewhere to bring them too.  So we are trying to enlist all of the members help to be able to get things going. So many people take the gospel and church and everything for granted and are not willing to do their part in growing and sharing the gospel.  But things are looking up and we pray that the Lord will continue to bless the branch so it will survive and grow.

                We are really excited for this Saturday, Our top investigator Philip is going to be getting baptized this weekend.  Elder Mears and I found him on our very first night here in Union, we taught him a short first lesson and left him with a copy of the Book of Mormon.  We came back about a week later and he had read the whole thing. It was Awesome, He has gone through a lot of health problems and some family problems recently his mom and friends are pretty against him joining the church but he has a testimony and knows it true. He even got a home teaching route last Sunday so that was really awesome. So we are excited for his baptism. Well I am about out of time so I better go. Love Yall.

Love,

Elder Adam Fitzgerald
