27 Feb, 2012

This past week was a pretty good one

we had training this week which was actually really good. I learned a TON and a lot of things I want to work on so that I can become better while teaching lessons to investigators. Ha it was really good because it reminded me of a bunch of things which I learned while in the MTC which I had forgotten. My comp and I are planning on using a lot of the things we learned in this next week and see what kind of difference it makes.

This past weekend there were a bunch of baptisms within the zone so since my comp is the District Leader we had to do a bunch of traveling so that he could do the interviews for the other missionaries in the zone. It was pretty cool to meet all the people who were getting baptized though. On Saturday there was a baptism in the ward of the kids of one of the recent converts. At first the guy was nervous about baptizing his kids and wanted other people to do it but the missionaries talked to him and encouraged him to do it and finally he decided to do it. It was so awesome to see! After the baptisms I was watching him as we were singing the closing hymn and you could just see how happy and proud he was of his kids for finally making the decision to be baptized!

This week should be a good one for us. Since it’s the last week of the change we set some pretty high goals and we’re determined to get them so we’re praying all will go as planned! We also are going to have a baptism on the 1st of March! The lady is super awesome and my comp was telling me that they’ve been teaching her for almost 2 changes. We’re all super excited for her though and know she’s going to be a strong member!

Thank you all for everything I love you all!
