    Dear Family, Friends, and fellow Xangans,

    This week has gone by so fast. It was an extremely sucessful week in terms of numbers and morale for Elder Mancuso and I. Also, in our ward Elder Christy and Elder Whittier baptized a mother and her four kids (ages 15-10). The father will soon follow. It was awesome! I had taught them 2 lessons, and had interacted with them on numerous occasions. The kids are so charming. I got to give a talk on the atonement at the baptism, and I gave the closing prayer. It was a very powerful service. We have now reached the year's goal for the ward.

    Next week is transfer day. I will get a new companion. (Wish me lu! ck!) We ll, take care. I have no time to write more,

    Elder Embree
