Hello Family and Friends,
Transfers was today and I got transferred to Seattle Burien area if dad know where that is. Me and my new companion Elder Read got whitewashed in (whitewashed means we both got transferred into the area at the same time) so this is going to be a fun transfer I can already tell, especially since neither of us know the area at all.
Oh and to tell you about last week Elder Gardiner and I taught a kid named Tony and we where able to put him on date for the 24 of July so that is going great. He has a few problems so basically we where working with him on that.
But mostly both of us were taking a lot of pictures with the members and yes I will get you those pictures soon, I hope.
Anyways that's all for this week.
Love y'all,
Elder O'Brien

Hi Family and Friends,
Mission is doing good still no baptisms in Fedy, but working on that. The only person we did have on date tho, fell off date so that is sad, but we are working with Tony to get him to baptism.
Last week we finally got 20 lesson (something that I have only been able to duplicate only one other time) even when I was with the zone leaders we only got 20 lessons one week out of the six weeks I was with them, so yeah it was great to reach it again.
Tracking is somewhat fun especially when I get to talk to interesting people from interesting backgrounds and religions, the funny thing is most of the people when we say who we are, instead of letting us say what we are there for, says not interested first off the bat, so that's kinda bad sometimes.
Anyways that's all for this week HOPE to hear from ya next week? Hint hint
Love,
Elder O'Brien

Hi Family and Friends,
The mission is great out here in Federal Way I have another great companion except for last week when we got into a huge argument over something really stupid but we are ok now.
Also we have a lot of great investigators that are progressing toward baptism, one of which is a guy named Tony he is 21 and is awesome we taught him at 12 today and we talked to him about the ten commandments and when we got to the adultery one he told us about his parties that he goes to and his fun he has with girls and we told him the importance of obeying the law of chastity, so he said that he is going to stop and try to get new friends to hang out with, because all the friends he has right now all drink and he has a really bad drinking problem.
So that is my weekly report, that's all for now.
Love ya all,
Elder O'Brien
