WEEK 33

OKAY!!!!! I am back at it people! This week has been a loooooooooooong week. A lot of meetings, visits, planning, etc.. But all in all it has been a good week! This week has been full of frustration, miracles, ups and downs. To start off Elder Kinman and I are being transferred. Oh well. Anyways, my prayers were answered. I got to stay in the area to see something huge happen. We had 3 baptisms this week end for a part member family we have been working with for 3 months. It was such a spiritual experience for not just me but the entire Mendez family. Alina who is 8, Destiny, 9, and Jr. is 11. No they don't like water too much so it was a struggle trying to get them into the font. Haha we had to get them to freaking play rock, paper, scissors to see who would go 1st, 2nd, and 3rd..
It was nice, my old comp got to come back and baptize these little rascals. And was is even cooler is we had 5!!!!! baptisms in the stake this weekend!

We had some pretty funny moments this week as lwel. Here are a couple examples. We almost died getting a ride from one of my most FAVORITE PEOPLE in the world. His name is Steve Tenney. He had taken some meds and we didn't think to ask if he had taken any before we
called for a ride. Yep total mistake. Well 3 times coming to a red light I had to physically grab his thigh and shove it towards the brake because he was not coherent enough to have the depth perception to see there was cars flying through the intersection at speeds up to 50 mph that could very easily turn his little blue berry of a car into dust. So yeah miracles! Woooooo!  Love this Guy!!

So things here are going good. I am just going with the flow and praying my next comp isn't a nerd. hahaha I am loving the heat so much I hate it. I am going to miss this area I am in. There is a lot of amazing members and so much work to do. Elder Kinman and I have had a lot of fun together, maybe a little too much fun. I am I am grateful for this area and the lessons I have learned hear. Like don't chase coyotes down the road because there might be an animal lover down the street to
yell at you for harassing one of natures creatures. Or don't try to cross a busy street with a Companion that hardly knows how to ride a bike. Just some simple things. Haha. On a more serious not. I have had my testimony strengthened in this area. I have made life long friends with members and those who we have taught. I have seen miracles upon miracles in the stake. I am grateful for this Gospel and the love joy and happiness it brings to anybody that accepts it into their lives.

I love you all! I will talk to you next week! Mwah! Have and amazing week!
