Nightless

This week we had a difficult time. We spent only 2 nights in our area because we had a lot to do. Monday I had to do an interview at 7, Tuesday we spent the day helping someone move, Wednesday we had our correlation meeting, Thursday we had a meeting with a family, Friday we worked our area, Saturday we had an interview, and Sunday we worked our area. It was kind of a bummer being out of the area always at night, but we know that we will be blessed. The other Elders had 2 baptisms last week, and one tomorrow with all the interviews so we are super excited about what is going down. Since we have been having trouble finding Spanish in our area, we got approval to start moving a little bit outside of our area, and they will be changing the borders shortly. It will give us some new room to work, and to not have to work the same few Spanish areas that are worked by every companionship in this area daily. We have been working hard and we are super excited for this last week of the transfer to get some work done. We have some good potential baptisms, we just need to meet with them and get them to church this weekend. We also went through our dropped files and found some people that have some good potential, so we will be stopping by soon to see how they are doing. We should have some more time in our area this week so we are super excited. We have to get some work done because next week is a 5 week transfer and we want that to be a successful one too. It seems like every single transfer gets shorter, and next one it really will, hopefully it will make the ones after it seem longer so the mission will seem like it is lasting longer. Today we have been playing volleyball so it has been fun being able to do so. I am so happy that I am able to do this, and am grateful that God has put me here in this part of his vineyard, the greatest mission in the world. I love this gospel and I love all that I get to do now to help others. I know this is His true work, and I know that God will always guide us and help us as we put him first. He will get us through and situation that we have if we just turn to him and search his help. I love you all and all that you do for me. Thankyou so much
