Helloooo! This last week has been pretty crazy. Last Thursday Bob
passed his Baptisimal Interview! We pulled up to his house because we
couldnt get him a ride to the church and he is standing in the door way
without a shirt and the missionary goes in and interviews him. I was
nervous, not going to lie, because Bob is kinda crazy. But anyways all
is well and we start to get ready for the baptism on Saturday. So we set
everything up. He didn't really know anybody in the ward, so my
companion was going to talk and I was going to Baptize him. We go over
saturday morning and he's like, "guys, I dont know what to do! I smoked a
joint last night! I cant get baptised now! I cant lie to God!"
NOOOOOOOOOO! Bob! You cant do that. He said he didnt even think about
it, just went for it when his friend was over. but he's moving now and
all should be good. He'll get baptised later, with a bunch of other
people that I LEFT IN YUMA!
Yes, its true, after 3
months in Yuma I have been transfered to Gilbert. I've been here a few
hours now. I rode down with our Zone Leader in one of the mission's
mini-vans. As we were leaving I said, "Wait I've got to get one last
picture. I'll probably never see this place again." And the picture
kinda sucks. But thats ok. Yuma was fun, but I dont think I'll ever go
back... But I will miss all the Taco stands on 8th street and hanging
out with a bunch of spanish missionaries.
But I'm
excited to be in Gilbert! We have 6 wards in 4 square miles and we are
on bikes! This is my first time on a bike in my whole mission. And on
the way to the library, I found out that my bike had a low tire, so I
kinda re-attatched the pedals to a bike that we had at our house and
rolled on over here. Kinda. The bike is about to fall apart. I'll fix
mine in a little bit. But remember Elder Gunter from Saint Johns? He's
my district leader here! Oh, and I'm a senior companion now. Things are
going crazy in the mission! There are tons of youngin's growing up.
But yeah, I've gotta go!
Love
Daniel
