First off, before I forget, happy birthday this week, Dad! Being a year older probably doesn't make much of a difference when you are old to begin with, huh? : ) At least you're not 50...yet. If you're considering going through a mid-life crisis anytime soon, might I suggest doing what my Zone Leader's dad did and purchase a new Mustang GT 500, grabber-orange with white racing stripes. Just a suggestion. ; )
Samantha Tanner finally got baptized this past week! The baptism service went really well although my comp, Elder Hansen, said he thought he could smell alcohol on Sam's dad's breath. At least he was there. Sam couldn't stop smiling the entire time. She's been so ready to get baptized for so long! It was such a relief to finally have the baptism take place.
Our investigator, Rikee, came to church for the first time yesterday! We took her on a chapel tour earlier in the week after she told us, "I'm gonna be real wich you guys, ahm kinda scared to come to church." She really enjoyed sacrament meeting and she plans on coming back. We're thinking about recommiting her to be baptized on the 24th of July. She's living with her boyfriend, so we potentially are going to run into some problems when we tell her that they've either got to get hitched, or separated. We'll see how it goes.
I'm kinda drawing a blank today for my email. I've felt super stressed out for the past couple of days, but I can't really figure out why. There's just a ton of small things that are driving me crazy right now and they're all piled up. I'm ready for the transfer to come. Speaking of which, transfers are a week from tomorrow, so if you send any mail after Wednesday you should send it to the mission office in case I get moved around. There's a good possibility that we no longer cover both the North Highlands ward and the Antelope 2nd ward at the same time. President asked me which of the two wards I would like to cover more and I told him Antelope. I'll let you know what happens. I'm ready for a change.
Congrats to Jaden for getting his Eagle! Thanks for the announcement, I appreciated it. Kurtis, have you made any more progress on yours yet? I know you're busy, but hopefully you've got plans to get it done soon.
Well, I can't think of anything else to say. My brain is fried. Man, P-Days are supposed to be a time of preparing for the upcoming week, a time to get your batteries recharged. But, dangit! It's frustrating to no end when the other missionaries in your zone plan all kinds of ridiculous stuff that ends up wasting all of your time and you end up accomplishing nothing. ...sorry for the small vent. Maybe I need a change of attitude about everything that's happening. Life is good. There isn't anything I'd rather be doing right now. Thanks for all your support! I appreciate it so much. Have a great week!
BE MIGHTY!
