Dear Family,
So transfers happened and I got a new companion! His name is Elder Burton and he is 6' 7". We get along really well and it's awesome! Elder Mikesell was his trainer so that's pretty cool. I am excited to work hard with him and go crazy this transfer!
It is great to hear about Glasgow and to think of memories of going there! Cherry Creek looks like a pretty and peaceful place. I will definitely miss Great Grandpa a lot. The Plan of Salvation is the greatest blessing! I know that he is in a better place and I know that we will be able to see him again! I don't know what I would do without the comfort of knowing these things and knowing that we can return to our Heavenly Father again some day!
This week was super crazy!! We had a ton of zone leader stuff going on. So on Tuesday it was transfers and Elder Burton was coming up from down south so I had to wait for him to get here. On transfer day there is one meeting for all of the north missionaries that starts at 7:00 am and there is another meeting for all of the missionaries that come up from down south at 4:30 pm so I had to go to both meetings because in the first one I found out who my companion was and in the second one I got my companion. But in between those two meetings I was able to be with a couple other elders and work until 4:30. We got to work in the Cherry Hills area so that was really fun and it brought back old memories! I was able to see some of my converts again which was awesome! But then on Wednesday we weekly planned and on Thursday we had MLC. Then on Friday we had Zone training and we had to plan for SMCM which is on Sunday. Then Saturday was pretty normal so we had some time to proselyte but then on Sunday we had SMCM where we meet with the Stake Presidency and talk about the missionary work in the stake! It's pretty cool to be able to attend that meeting and provide input and stuff! But yeah so we didn't have too much time to find or teach but yesterday we found a new investigator named Adelina. She is from Russia and she used to be Russian Orthodox. She said she really likes studying about religion and she asked us a ton of questions about our religion! After we answered them and taught almost all of the lessons haha, we set up a return appointment for Saturday to come back and talk to her! She is a really awesome lady who really wants to know the truth so we are excited to teach her on Saturday!
That's about it for my week though! I'm loving every second of my mission and I can't believe it's almost halfway over... But I'm glad I have the rest of my mission to work hard and bring souls unto Christ! I love you all, Talk to you later!
