Ok CRAZY things are happening here! you might have heard of all the "i am a mormon" blitz campaigns going on around the world...   starting
oct 3 there will be one happening HERE! its going to be nuts. billboards, bus stops, TV commercials.  you name it, Mormon will be on it. Im a little nervous because people are either going to love us or hate us! its okay though, because we are only looking for people who are prepared.  

 so the wards are pretty much going nuts here trying to be prepared and salt lake is asking everyone in the area to make a profile on mormon.org as well. this happened in NYC and 47% of lds people got APPROACHED by nonmembers with questions about the lds faith and almost 100% of the youth got approached!  they are telling us that in NYC people were just showing up at church without even being asked if they wanted to come because they were so curious and they found the ward building on mormon.org as well. WOW

 our teaching pool is LOW and i mean low! pretty much all week it has been around 114 degrees and we have been outside biking in that ALL DAY LONG just trying to find people to teach. this lull always happens in the work so its okay because i know that things will soon turn around. its super stressful being senior and i feel a lot of responsibility but its okay because im learning tons.  Its also way weird only having one companion!!! i miss sister johanson! i am so grateful for everything that she taught me.

 mom i cant believe you, Dad and Heather are coming to Phoenix on wed! welcome to the heat. i dont really need anything... ummm well, food and pictures would be nice . thanks for the gps, it was MUCH needed and we love having it. the candy is very yummy. im glad it was all nestle haha

 well i love you all so terribly much.

love sister martin

sorry no pictures... you dont want to see what i look like after biking all day in 114 degree temperatures HAHA but seriously!
