Hey Momma! 

Sadly I am! It has been 4 transfers which is how long I was in my first area. We will definitely be visiting here for a bit.

So we did! I'll have to get all the pictures but T was baptized. The whole stake presidency was able to be there too! So that was very awesome. His parents came and it was funny cause his dad is a huge eagles fan and he knew exactly who President Sikahema was. They got to talk after and he told him how the church is and how he still works and has his job but does this voluntarily. It was super cool. Very spiritual baptism. Now they are going to be helping him prepare for a mission. He wants to do it! We have 1 new investigator and his name is M. On the Spanish side of course. He is family of some members here and I think he wants to be baptized. So we will see what happens though! It was a great week. So I was wearing my Alabama hoodie last P-day and this guy had on a bunch of Alabama stuff and just came up to me and started talking to us. First he said Roll tide and then asked where I was from and all of that. It was funny. Older gentleman. We also went to the Drinkwaters for New Year's Eve. That was super fun and I got to see the fireworks over the Delaware river from Camden. I'll have to send a video or something. So definitely a great week for us. It has definitely been sad saying bye to everyone but I know I'll love my next area. I think I will be strictly Spanish again. 

We ate a ton. We could actually be out till 10 if we were with members so we were at the Drinkwaters. 

 

Sounds like it was a long haul!  Sounds like a huge ward! Lots of new people coming in.

I will let you know where I am going! Well I love ya momma and hope everything goes well out there! Tell the family I love them and say hello! 

Love,
