Transfers were this Tuesday so we have our P-day today. Last
Tuesday we had interviews with president Sweeney. In my interview he told me
that we were losing some missionaries so he has to close down some areas. He
told me that my new companion would be Spanish speaking and I would take in his
area and he would take in mine. So now we cover the Payson Spanish branch, the
Christopher Creek branch, and the Ponderosa ward. Luckily I already knew who my
companion was because is the other Elder that we shared an apartment with.
After the interviews my companion and I went to a Chaplin's meeting. It was
just where different ecclesiastical leaders in the community come together to
talk about things that are going on at their churches. I was pretty
nervous at first but it turned out to go really well.
Earlier in the week the nob on my watch broke off so I took
it to a member to get it fixed. On Thursday he gave it back to me. Instead of
fixing it he just gave me a new watch and put it on the old part. After I got
it I noticed that it said it was a Rolex! hahaha no kidding! I'm 99% sure it is
fake but I just thought it was so funny when I looked at it and it said it was
a Rolex.We also pulled out our bikes that day because we are getting low on our
miles. We didn't go too far before my companion's tire popped. So we were back
in the car.
In my last email I talked about how we are doing more member
visits to share with them the first lesson. After the lesson we set something
up where we come back in two weeks to hear about their experiences. Friday was
our first return appointment and we got four referrals! We have already
contacted one and she is interested in taking the lessons!
Saturday was a pretty long day. We had to drive up to
Snowflake because Elder Curtis had a baptism up there. Because I'm not the
designated driver I got to drive all the there and back. I like to drive though
is it was all good. On the way back we just drove straight to one of our
lessons. His name is David and he talked forever! When we finally got out of
there we went to the church so Elder Curtis could do a baptismal
interview.
Well that's about all I can think of! I know this church is
true and it blesses lives!
