A Baptism and A Transfer Call

Hello family! It is transfer 6 and I am transferred!! Crazy but exciting! Here is this weeks happenings…
 
1. I got to play dodge ball this week… CRAZY! I love it and the elders were actually fun while we were all playing! We even made root beer floats after.

2. So my last companion went into to talk to the mission president and so of course I had to go and I got to talk to him for a few minutes and whoa! He is such a good man! He really cares and he actually listens… President Becerra is awesome.

3. We got to make a cake for the “rat” Brother Baker. He always claims that the “rat” ate it when it is just him so now the legend of the rat just gets bigger and bigger! LOVE HIM!

4. Josh was baptized this week… SO great! He showed up and was nervous but during the whole thing he was so happy. Being able to see him so excited before then after was so cool. It was nice to be able to hear his testimony to after he was baptized. He is such a strong 15 year old. I love it! He will be a great full time missionary some day!

5. While at the baptism we had some people share their testimony and Seth our recent convert got up! Wow. How cool was it to hear him share his testimony of the gospel and of Joseph Smith and it was so sweet to hear his sincerity! Then after Josh was done changing he shared his testimony, WOW! I love it!! It was such a testimony builder to me to be able to hear the testimony of the people I was able to teach some of the gospel to and then to hear how it has affected their lives. What a blessing!! I LOVE IT!

6. I am now in... Pasadena!! Crazy eh? I am with a Canadian :] Her name is Sister Pack and she is 4 feet and 11 inches… if you forgot, I am 6 feet tall. This is gonna be funny! I am excited to be here… I don’t know what to expect from the area so it shall be fun!!

7. Favorite scripture this week was in Doctrine and Covenants 75:27. How true? We just need to ask and then as we LISTEN to the spirit we can know what to do… I think it takes some humbling to ask sometimes.
 
LOVE YOU ALL!!
