A fuller account of Elder Whitney´s vision is in the March 2008 Ensign, in the article by President Packer.

I don´t have my license on me, actually. I know it´s D50 something, but I´ll have to look and tell later.

So, it was an interesting week. Jesus fell through, but we found some new people who might progress towards baptism. One crazy thing that happened was that on Wednesday, I contacted a woman who wasn´t interested, but as I was talking with her, a guy who was walking by stopped and started talking to my companion. He asked for money to buy a plane ticket back to the Canary Islands (a lot of people ask us for money). We told him that we couldn´t help him, but gave him a pass along card and directions to the information office (he was looking for a motel). On Thursday, we had exchanges planned with some members, and to our surprise one of the members (he´s a crazier sort) had this same guy with him. He explained that he was coming home from work, when he felt the impression to stop at an Internet cafe and buy candy for his wife (he said that he never does that). Then he saw this guy inside, felt like he needed to talk to him, and long story shout (I´m short on time) he´s staying at the members house right now, came to church on Sunday, and he´s going back to the islands in a week or so. He´s a pretty dedicated Baptist, so we´re not sure how receptive he´ll be (he was a little contentious on Sunday in Gospel Principles class ¨Where´s that in the Bible!?¨ but we´ve got a visit set for Wednesday.

Glad to hear that Mitt won. We´ll have to see how things go, because I believe he won New Hampshire in 2008 as well. I´ll send a letter home with my DL# today, so you´ll have it by Friday probably.

Love,

Bradley.
