so this past week has been pretty darn crazy. it was transfer week so we had a ton of stuff to do. we have 4 new missionaries in our zone so we're pretty excited. my new comp is pretty dang awesome. hes 24 and hes been out 14 months and hes a convert of about 3 years. yea figure that out. you have to wait a year to go to the temple and go on a mission and hes been out 14 months. crazy. hes really smart. he knows a ton about the gospel. hes the missionary that when you ask other people about him they say that he knows a ton and you want him in a lesson with you. we get along so well though. i think hes probably one of my favorite comps so far. anyways, we're confounding false doctrine and bringing the spirit into others hearts. so about the kid with no house, so he has a few hangups and we think that he might have some wrong intentions about investigating the church and getting baptized. so we are having to push back his baptism date again and again but we wont give up on him. hes doin good though. but thats so cool about the new mission in vancouver and derlin taylor is gonna be the new mission president! who did he meet with to get the calling? dang it! that means that they wont be there when i get back. i'll have to go and visit him or something. anyways, yea we heard about the other 58 missions being opened up. thats crazy. it makes missionaries excited. so we're having an apostle come and speak to us for a special purpose on the 9th and 10th of march. this meeting will take the place of the regular meetings for sunday for the whole stake. its got people going crazy around here though. they think hes gonna make a new stake or something. whatever it is, its gonna be cool. well family thank you so much for all the support you give me and all the emails that you send me and let me know how everybody is doing. have an awesome week.
