Quick update 6-1715

Hello hello hello!!

Yet another week has gone by can you believe it? This transfer is
almost already over too! Time flies when you're having fun! That's
what they say right? Well this week we had a special ZTM (zone
training meeting) where we went over some ways to keep ourselves safe
on the Internet while using "Mobile Devices". I actually think it's
pretty awesome how the church not only sees how this can benefit us as
missionaries but that it will help us develop safe habits that are
going to help us even more after the mission than they will while we
are here. It's like the church is trying to provide us the way to
become better while on a mission, weird huh? Face with stuck-out tongue and winking eye

Yesterday we had quite the day. We were part of 2 baptismal services
(not from our are unfortunately) so we ended up running around. All.
Day. It was a great day though. We were asked to give the missionary
moment as these two baptism. It's so cool being able to see these
people that have changed so much to be able to be baptized. You can
see it in their eyes. Afterwards, we went to the baptism of Rudy. Who
was a girl that my companion Elder Strong talked to on the street a
few months ago who was interested so he sent her information to the
Elders who covered her area. A few weeks later he got transferred to
none other, right where Rudy lived. She's an amazing young girl with
such faith. She was heavily involved with drugs, alcohol, and all
manner of wickedness. She's truly a different person now. There was
this one guy there who was a friend of hers that was baptized a few
months ago, and he was being crazy. Don't get me wrong he was a super
cool guy. .......But he was treating us like his brothers not as
missionaries. He kept making jokes about how we need to lock our
hearts and jokes about being a 'consecrated' missionary. I guess that
is how they do things over there in the mission he lives. To each his
own.

Transfers are this next week. So next week I'll have the news on
what's happening with that.

love you all!! Be great this week!
