Hey family!!!!
So things are going super well :) I love my new area, my new
comp, and the ward! This ward is having a lot of success right now, so it´s a
good change from ______. The ward actually works. It´s weird. The first
counselor is a very strict person, but that´s why the ward works I think. This
is the first ward I´ve been in with ward missionaries that actually know how to
work and DO work. The ward mission leader got home from his mission a month
ago... so he knows exactly what to do. He is actually talking to me a lot
lately because he wants to go to the U of U to study medicine. I told him we
should room together :)
So this week we were able to help _______ get baptized. I
just met her this week, but she had only received two lessons, so we finished
teaching her the lessons, and got the interview done and taken care of, and she
got baptized yesterday after church. She has 16 years, and is a really smart
girl. She asked me to baptize her, so yeah, I can´t complain about the
week!
This next sunday, we have a special stake conference and
it´s directed by an apostle, and then in May Elder Cook is coming to our stake
center for another special stake conference. This stake is one of the only
stakes where the members know how to work. It is a well knownn fact about the
stake, and it has a lot of success because of the members. I don´t know if it´s
because the mission president belongs to this stake, or if it´s just because
they are awesome. But either way, I´m glad to be here. It will be a good place
to finish my mission.
There is a couple in our ward that are from St. George! Lol.
Funny right? The dad is from here, from this stake, and went to study in Utah
and met his wife there. They come here and live here for 3 months every year
and so they are here right now. They are super cool though. they kept running
up to me yesterday to talk. I think they miss speaking in English or
something.
I don´t know about the dinner thing. It´d be nice, but a lot
of work and stuff. I´m going to be super tired too. Plus when would we do it?
After my homecoming talk? And from which ward?
Love you guys! We´ll talk next week.
