While I am happy that i am being transferred out of Poci, I am sad that i will be leaving behind 6 solid investigators that all have baptismal dates and that i wont be able to see them get baptized :(. But i am extremely excited to be going back up north, especially to somewhere so close to Ririe :). And i am SUPER happy to be going back to the country hahaha. Dang, so i forgot that the mission ruins the suprise by sending you an email of my leadership changes about me going to be a trainer. I am going to be finishing up a greenie's training. So in other words, i am doing the 2nd half of his training. I think it's going to be awesome :). Oh, i just realized i should probably tell you his name hahaha. My new companion is going to be Elder Sincere. All i heard about him is that he is from California. Not sure what part but i guess i will find that out on wed :).
So i guess the awesome stories i have for you this week are about the 4 new baptismal dates we were able to set :). One of them is with a mother and her daughter. One of the members told us about how they had visited them and how they want to get baptized. So we called them, setup a time with them to meet, and met this last week. They are extremely solid. pretty much once we got there they started asking us about when they could get baptized and how they are really looking forward to it! The mom even told us how she went up to the bishop and asked him if she could get a calling in the ward because she felt it would help her be even more committed to this goal of being baptized. :)
The other one is that investigator i told you about last week who showed up to church after us having lost contact with him. We were able to meet with him this last week and when we invited him to be baptized he said he really feels like this is the next step he should take and that he knows that he will be able to overcome smoking problems and everything. Things are great in this area right now. Super sad to be leaving all these investigators behind but hey the lord has called me another way :)
Well, that's all i have to say this week. Peace out till next week :)
With love,
Elder ---chis--->
