1st Transfer

Last week of the transfer. Here we go.

Tuesday- I met another guy from Utah. They are the Lewis family. The guy is from South Jordan, but the wife is from Durham. We taught them a lesson about Joseph Smith.

Wednesday- We taught a member of the ward who has been struggling lately. She's actually been visited by both us and the Sisters a lot. We did some role plays with her to help her feel comfortable sharing the gospel.

Thursday- We had a conference call with President Baker and the other training companionships. It was nice being able to hear Elder Ludwig's voice. He's sounding a lot better. I learned a lot from the call. We met with a less active member and his girlfriend who is investigating the church. They are both super prepared. Both of their goals is to eventually get to the temple!!! So awesome.

Friday- Huge miracle. We got a phone call from this couple that was moving into the area. We totally thought that they were members because they used all of the Mormon lingo. They wanted help unpacking, but we had  a couple of other appointments. We get through all of our appointments, and decide to go and help them. We helped them for one hour and we came to find out that they were investigators!!!!! Whoops!!! Everything worked out in the end. We both felt heavily rebuked by the Spirit.

Saturday- One of the Sister's investigators got baptized!!! This was perfect timing, because one of the Sister's is going home tomorrow. Elder Terril and I got to be the witnesses for the baptism. The service was super good. They had a few of the converts in the ward bear their testimony and the Spirit was so strong. We got transfer calls today. Elder Lancaster is leaving us. Sad day. He's going to be companions with Elder Terril's trainer up on the Eastern Shore.

Sunday- We helped confirm the Sister's investigator at church.

Super awesome week. I found out that I won't be the only Greenie coming up here. Sister Bunker (our ward's only Sister missionary right now) is training. Her companion left the area today to go home. Keep the faith. Focus on the promptings of the Spirit. They will lead and guide you in everything you do. Love you all
