Hi family!How is everything doing? It's pretty good here in Pittsburgh but I feel like I'm still adjusting to city mission life. It's a little rough! We have to pretty solid people we are working with right now but trying to get more people to teach. Our first one I may have talked about last time is Steve. He is soooo cool. We originally set him to be baptized on Feb. 6th, but then we found out that a ward temple trip is that same day. A lot of people are going and won't be able to see him get baptized. So when we talked to him about changing the date, he was thinking about moving his baptism date up so he can go on the temple trip too! Pretty cool huh? He's thinking and praying about it right now and we will meet with him again on Tuesday to see what he wants to do. Either way though, he'll probably go. It will just be if he goes in or goes to the visitors center that will be different. The other sisters that share the ward with us had a baptism this past weekend. His name is Brandon and he is so solidly awesome too! He is 20, going to the University of Pitt in Bio Physics or something like that. He wants to be an Oncologist when he grows up. I saw him walking down the hall at church yesterday in his white shirt and tie and he had a backpack on. He looked like such a missionary!!!! Even though he is new to the gospel, he seems like he's been a member his whole life. He's such a little stud, I want Kelsey to date him if I could get them to meet somehow, hahahaha. Sorry Kel, I'm trying to set you up with everyone!Nicole will take a little more time before she really starts progressing. We did set her with a baptism date for March 6, but she still needs to figure out of the gospel is true. But she said she definitely would get baptized once she recieves her answer. Yay! You can see she wants it so bad too. She just needs to act on it.Other then that, we have been doing a lot of finding! It can be pretty rough trying to find new people to teach, but this week all of us sisters in the city are doing a "finding blitz" and we are going to pray our guts out, try to get referrels, street contact like none other and get creative to try to find people. So please pray for us that we will all be able to find those people the Lord had prepared and who is ready for us!!! :) Thank you family! I love you all! I hope you have a great week, can't wait to get your emails next week too! Miss you!Love, Holly
