This week is actually transfer
week, and I'm moving (wow) back to Murray. I'll be serving as a District Leader
still over in the Murray South stake. It's kind of a funny story because way
back a year ago when I was in Little Cottonwood I had to call the Murray South
stake mission leader to coordinate some things, and he prophetically stated that
he "would look forward to working with me in the future". Interesting, haha.
Murray Little Cottonwood is actually in my district, so that means I can go and
eat at all my old haunts (including the Despains, ha.) I'm sad to leave this
stake though. But it won't be too long til I'll be back.
Jennieca was going to be baptized
on Saturday, but she didn't come to church this Sunday. We had her all ready but
she decided at the last second as we were biking over to go to her old
Pentecostal church one time just to double check and make sure she was making
the right decision. She said she didn't feel the Spirit, and that there's
definitely something special in our church. While she may have made the right
decision for her testimony, it does mean she has to wait another week to be
baptized, so on March 1st she'll go through with it.
We had stake conference with an
Elder Steven Allen on Saturday and Sunday. Usually missionaries aren't invited
to Saturday sessions of stake conference but we all had a special invite. It was
really cool. We got to be on a panel with some youth, some couples, and the
conference was just us each answering the one question: what do you think about
when you're going to sleep at night? I said baptizing and helping my district to
baptize. :)
In any case I'm excited to head
over to Murray again. The people there are awesome. (I hear Shaun Bradley lives
in my new area.) It's hard though to say bye to an area you know so well to
(likely) go to the last area I'll serve in!
