This week was pretty awesome!!! Elder Callahan and I are getting along pretty well and we are seeing a lot of miracles!
Last Wednesday I taught district meeting and afterwards we went on exchanges with the zone leaders. I went with Elder Binkley to his area!!! We had a great day and we get along really well. It was Elder
Callahan's first exchange and he took over the area and did great! They taught like 5 lessons!
On Thursday we had interviews with President Schmitt. Since I was with my zone leader we had to be there early to set up a room for him to do interviews and we also got donuts and chocolate milk for everyone which was fun :)!
My interview with President was great! He answered a lot of my questions and we got to know each other a lot better. Elder Callahan and I figured something crazy out though. I was in President Schmitts first group of missionaries and Elder Callahan will be his last!
After the interview we went with lakeside to split some wood again. Got more blisters haha XD but it's all good we had a good time. We finished chopping all the wood though so no more blisters hopefully.
On Friday we helped someone move and then afterwards we helped one of our investigators set up her wedding! She lives with a less active member and they are getting married so she can get baptized! Her name is Amber and she has been ready for baptism since I got here!
Friday night we went to the temple to do baptisms for the dead with Pamela our recent convert!! Elder Callahan and I got do baptisms too. Elder Callahan baptized someone for the first time that night so that was cool!
Our recent convert had a great time though. She did however have a little accident at the temple. Pamela uses a walker because she broke her neck like 2 years ago and she is still recovering. But as she was getting into the font she slipped on the stairs and she broke 2 bones in her leg. The crazy thing is after she fell she got right back up and did the baptisms and watched everyone else get baptized and the next day she decided to go to the hospital and found out she broke her leg.
Sunday was a pretty awesome day! We gave 3 blessings that day. And we added a new investigator named Nhullng Vu (just so you know I did spell that right haha). Nhullng is 14 and has been coming to scouts for the past 2 years and has become interested in coming to church now. He wants to be baptized and we have only taught him once! Pretty crazy stuff! When I leave Bostonia we will probably have like 4 or 5 baptisms which is really crazy!
Right now we have
- Don Beitler for August 22
- Amber Helkin for August 22
- Jonathan Mott for August 29
- We will probably have Nhullng for September 5
- And Taylor Beitler (Don's daughter) for September 5 as well!
Things are going great here in Bostonia :) Lots of miracles :) Hope everything is going well for you.
Love you. The Church is true.
