Well it's official. As of Wednesday the Sister missionaries I was in the mtc with go home on Wednesday. O how time flies...
In other news, transfers happened! Our whole district pretty much shifted around in a circle. I am staying in this area for one more transfer. Elder Ames is serving in another area that is right next to this one. The missionary who was there is coming into this are to be my companion (his name is Elder Ferguson. I have only known him since the early days of the mission) just came from the are Elder Ames is serving in now. Our areas are so close to each other that we are next door neighbors in our apartment complex, so we see them around all the time. Our district leader changed areas to someone else's area in the same district. So basically everyone just shifted around in our district. 3 in-district transfers! I have never heard if that...
This will be a fun transfer. I have been on quite a few exchanges with Elder Ferguson so I already know him. He is from somewhere near Seattle and he has been out 1 transfer more than I have, so we are almost the same amount of time out in the field. We're the old missionaries in the district...
We had a cool miracle. Something I have stood by my whole mission is: just get out the door and work hard, and the Lord will bless you. Obvious little philosophy right? Well, this happens in every area. My companion and I grind out an area and knock lots of doors and talk to many people, and then someone inevitably comes to us with a desire to be Baptized. Which brings me to a guy named Dave. He showed up to church with a member and long story short, he has been reading the Book of Mormon and wants to be Baptized. I won't tell his whole story, but let's just say the member works with people who just got out of federal prison, so Dave and the member are buddies because of the members work....
So we will most likely have a Baptism in the next couple of weeks. Woot!
Oh and Elder Ames is going to train a new missionary. That will be good for him. He really wanted to train, so this is a blessing for his righteous desires!
I don't know if the other pictures I sent Las time really went through so I am sending these ones again... for your viewing pleasure.
The harder I work the more of a testimony if gain of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It is definitely a proactive Gospel that grants us a personal relationship with the Savior, and us such, we come to know who we really are, even the pre-mortal Sons and Daughters of God. Blessed be the name of The Lord for granting us our many blessings!
