Hey, happy father's day.  I missed dad complaining how
 fathers day is just a day used to chastise them.  About 
the farewell of president koster, I forget to ask him cuz 
we saw him when we had districtleader training but, I 
asked one of the senior couples as we were trying to leave 
and she pulled it on fb.  They have a farewell in California 
but, it looks like they'll have one in Utah also.  Under Utah 
details it just said, tbt.   But, just like up david koster on 
facebook and you'll find it.   When we saw President he 
talked a little more about this mid transfer and elder lawrence
 got excited cuz he said how 'some of you still have a chance
 to go to mindoro'.  And when President first saw us he was 
like 'wow, you guys have been together forever huh'  then 
later he told me 'yo, Pateros 2nd (my area) has suddenly 
been doing really good with monthly baptisms (before Elder 
Lawrence got here, it was a pretty dead area, but he picked 
it up, found a bunch of new people and we have just been 
keeping it up and progressing)  and that president was 
proud that we just had 2 baptisms that last Saturday.  But, 
he also explained how he was going to transfer my 
companion but, since we were doing so good, he just had 
to keep us together (if you remember last transfer day, 
president told us he was going to give us a call but then, 
he never did)  anyway...he said "there'll problly have to be 
some changes"    so, we are pretty convinced that my 
companion will leave before the new mission change.  ...
We'll see tho, ya never know. 

I'm loving the area tho, when I first got here, nobody worked
 with us, even on Sundays but, this last week we've been 
having people work with us everyday.  It's rlly just a problm 
with not having priesthood.  Sisters always are there 
wanting to work.  When I came in, the guy worker got 
married so we lost him but, ayen, a 20yrold has decided 
that he's gonna prepare for a mission and it's been a lot of 
fun having workers again.  Ayen honestly, has been getting
 ready for his mission for a while but, we have finally gotten
 close and the members enjoy us.  Of course too, if we have 
more members, we get feed more.  So after not getting too 
many meals for a while, we are now getting it every night.   

love you lots

November 14

Good evening :) Crazy crazy week as always.  Not sure where to start and where to end. Unfortunately Mark's baptism had to be postponed.  He is still coming to church and loves learning and wants to get baptized.  A concern came up and his baptism needed to be postponed.  We also passed him to the elders to continue to get ready for his baptism.  I'll keep you posted.   Eline is doing so fantastically well.  She accepted the word of wisdom no problem and continues to prepare for baptism on December 11th!  She is very prepared. Our other prepared favorite investigator, Jane Susan.  Pretty sure I already told you all about her.  Hopefully.  Her sister and niece recently got baptized in Gorelston (by Norwich) and told Jane about how they love the church, so now Jane wants to learn.  She was a referral from the Stratford ward.  She is so prepared it is so great teaching her.  Appointments last precisely 45...

July and warming up

July 19 HELLO!!!! Good to hear from all of you!  I know I say this every time. But time is going so fast. Next week will be transfers. I do not want to lose my companion. We need to stay together. You can pray for that. Just kidding. We will se what next week brings! P day will be on Tuesday again so emails will be late. This week was a good week!! I'm trying to remember everything that happened. It's all such a blur. Oh Nish!!! Our lovely investigator from India. She wow. She is all over the place. Every day (no every hour) Sister Guimaraes and I go back and forth of whether she I'll make her date for July 30th or not. We just don't know what to think. She has refused to give up coffee at all in the past. This week we committed her to no coffee and she did it! In fact in our lesson on Saturday she said she could give up coffee forever!! (Except for this coffee dessert but we will work it out). What a drastic change this was. All because she is praying and reading ev...
