So
the ground hog saw its shadow? Man I don't want 6 more weeks of winter,
not that I believe in that sort of stuff. the weather here is cold its
staying in the low teens and we got freezing rain on Friday, so everything is covered in a thin layer of ice, it looks pretty cool.
My
new companion is Elder Hendricks, he is from Galesburg Illinois, so he
is like 3 hours away from home, but he is waiting on his visa to go to
Brazil, so he could be here for 3-4 months or get his visa in a couple
of weeks, so its pretty random. but he is a really cool missionary, it
should be allot of fun serving with him.
This week went ok, Monday-Tuesday
Elder Taft prepared to leave and packed and we visited some members so
Elder Taft could say goodbye. and we taught Keim the rest of the
commandments and talked about how her reading is going and she is still
reading whenever she gets the chance to. they where pretty sad to see
Elder Taft go.
And on Wednesday we went to transfers and picked up my new companion. we met with Keim on Friday
and just reviewed the interview questions and reviewed some of the
things that we taught her, and answered any questions that she had, but
she didn't really have any questions, she understands every thing that
we taught her.
But she wasn't baptized on Sunday,
she wanted her daughters to come to it but they couldn't, due to the
weather and it was a busy week for every body, but she is still way
excited to be baptized next Sunday, so next week I'll send you pictures of the baptism.
Besides those things nothing else really happened.

We
are trying to find more people to teach, but we just aren't having the
best of luck, I feel way bad cause in the trainer responsibilities we
are to have a big teaching pool and we don't have that :( we only have
two people that we are teaching and one of them is getting baptized
which is great, but we haven't seen Abdur lately and haven't really been
able to have a good sit down with him. I don't know what to do really,
besides tracting, but I don't have the greatest out look on that, so its
hard to try to motivate me to do that. so that's how I'm feeling right
now. sorry to go on about that.
Glad that Dad had a good birth day.
Hope you all have a great week. love ya
