yo yo momma! Yeah bruh 7 weeks. 7x7 is 49 days ahhhhh thats crazy. i dont even know how to feel at this point. Im about to head into my last transfer on my mission. It will be the first of a lot of lasts here on the mission.
I will send pics of the baptism in my big email. It was great. im so happy cause he almost fell through cause his son was put in prison this past week. So that complicated things, but he trusted and went through with it and it went great. He has a lot of guy friends in the ward and i think thats something that he doesnt have in his normal life so that is awesome! So yeah my second baptism on my mission. her name is Elaine. Like i said she had gotten super firm in the church after i left the area and was doing super great. She went to do baptisms, was a teacher in the YW organization, gave a talk, and got her patriarchal blessing. Im not sure why but after 8 months or so she kinda distanced herself from the church. But i texted her last night and she told me she returned to church. I think she has already been back for 2 months or so now. I was super super excited. I know she will remain super firm now. She has done all the necessary steps. I just hope she can baptize her kids maybe or find a husband in the church cause for now she is alone. But i do know she has friends in the ward which is good. I will visit that area in a couple weeks and ill see her which will be really good. Im excited!
I need to talk to spencer still! I wanna facetime him one week and talk about the mish a little. I think ill be able to help him quite a bit.
YEAHHH FRENCH BREAD! ahhh thatll be so yummy. Ive gotta think about my first meal, so ill get back to you about that.
We are looking to help Thiffane out in this next week. She is the referral from Dr. rey and really nothing stops her from being baptized. She just wants dr. rey to be there and thats whats kinda being hard. But i think here in like 2 weeks he might be coming out. We will go to the temple visitors center with her on thursday so im hoping she can have a super spiritual experience there!
I love you momma! thanks for your support. i cant believe we are really counting down the weeks and even days now. Its such a weird moment. This mission has changed me and It will be hard to let go. It seems like i thought this moment would never come, but now its almost here and Im just looking to take advantage of the little time i have left. I dont wanna have any regrets about this last little bit.
PS. I finished JEsus the christ! It was soooo good. It did take a while, but i really loved the end! I loved how he talks about the great apostasy and thats why i think im gonna read his book called the great apostasy. its a much quicker read and im really interested in that part. But for now im finishing up the New testament. im in the end of Hebrews so i imagine in the next month ill finish. Im reading Saints and that is a realllllly good read. I will read it super fast and then get on to the great apostasy. Im greatful for all the knowledge ive gained from my studies.
Love you momma! see you in 48
