This Saturday, we had a (my first) Baptism!! Nita was able to be ready and her kids were there too! We are trying to work with her son Ethan (NM) also, but we will see if we can get him too. SUPER AWESOME!! The other Elders in the area were also there. during the baptism we got up and taught the first lesson and you could cut the spirit with a knife it was so powerful!
Then the day after she was confirmed and given the Holy Ghost!! It was also fast Sunday and she gave an awesome testimony!
The rest of the week was spent with lots of teaching and lots of cleaning! Because we moved into a place WAY CLOSER to our area. It's a real *interesting* place... none of the walls are parallel and the windows poke out.... and from the front the house looks kinda like an Owl... but it's all ours, and it's all we need.
On Friday we went to IF to go to a great meeting where the people over ALL OF MISSIONARY TECHNOLOGY were there... so that was awesome to give them feedback directly, ask some questions we were confused about, stuff like that. The meeting was suppose to be for Zone Leaders only... but President asked us to be there! So I think that was super good! Elder Anderson even got the Email of the guy in charge!
This week transfers will be happening. Basically nothing happened to us, but we are now in a super tiny district, that is us, our district leader and his companion... and that's it. So that's weird.
