Hey Everyone!
This week was super fun because it was transfer week! Saturday night we got a call for our transfer from our mission president for Elder Peterson. He is going to Hacienda Heights to be a zone leader again. He was pretty pumped because he really didn't want to get transfer trashed but now it looks like he will stay there for his last area.
My new companion is Elder Clark. He is a Spanish missionary who just came from East LA and this is his first time in English work. I'm excited to have him as a companion and so far this week with him has been really fun. It will be nice to contact people in Spanish as well now because my Spanish contacting is trash.
Anyway, this Monday we worked with all the missionaries going home and there were a lot of good
missionaries in this group. It was sad to to see them go. Then Tuesday we took them to the airport and picked up the new missionaries. It was a lot of fun to meet them all!
Also, Monday and Tuesday evening we were able to meet with one of the new investigators that Elder Peterson and I found. His name is Adrian and he is the same age as us. He is super awesome and really wants to change and so we challenged him to be baptized and set his date for September 30th! We will probably pass him off to the YSA but we are still looking into it. We were able to meet with him almost every day this week and his best friend Alissa though and they are planning on coming to church tomorrow after we give them a chapel tour tonight.
It has been awesome to see things picking up here and really cool that he meets with us everyday because that has been really hard to for most people in this area. The Smallwoods also came to church last week and he has already received a calling! We are super excited for how well things are
going.
I know that this gospel is true and that we can be changed by applying the teachings of Jesus Christ. I hope you all have a great week!
