Anyway, we taught J, A, and B twice this week. We went over the Gospel Of Jesus Christ, The commandments and the baptism interview questions. Everything went great! A. had his baptismal interview yesterday after church and everything went great. Elder Sagers is going to baptize him. All he has talked about since he came out was baptizing people. A. didn't care who baptized him so I told him Elder Sagers would, so hopefully it will get that out of his system and make him realize it doesn't matter who baptizes them, it just matters that they get baptized. I don't know we will see!
D. is still on track for the 13th! We taught him the Gospel of Jesus Christ as well. Everything went great. It was crazy to see everyone's reactions at church yesterday when they heard that D. was going to be baptized. I think a lot of people thought it would never happen. D's wife P. gave me a great compliment this last lesson. She said "Elder Richardson, Thank you for being so bold with my husband. I think that was what he needed. All the other missionaries seemed afraid of D. but you just told him how it was going to be."
It was so nice to hear that! You don't get a whole lot of compliments like that out here and that was probably the highlight of my week!
S. is doing good an has committed to give up coffee and tea so we will see how she does with that. Church was great yesterday. We had 5 investigators come to church! They all stayed for all 3 hours except one. We also found out that we get to speak in Second Ward next Sunday. I am excited but still nervous - haha!
Transfers are next Monday. This transfer has gone by so fast! I really hope I stay! We have so many great things about to happen in our area and I wouldn't be so happy if I got transferred :/ I think I will probably stay and finish training Sagers though.
We have been invited to eat dinner with the Minor family on Easter. They are a younger family with 4 children all under 10! It should be great fun and loud - haha! I did think of something I'd like in my Easter box. Elder Sagers has gotten me into working out which isn't all that bad and I'd like some protein. You can buy it at Walmart - it is called Muscle Milk and it is made by CytoSport. Make sure to get the chocolate flavor please and THANKYOU! (It's the same stuff I got Elder Rusk for his birthday!)
I seriously can not wait to skype home on Mothers Day! I miss you guys so much and can't wait to see you again. I hope you guys have a great week!
Love you guys!
Elder Richardson
CHALLENGE THIS WEEK: Keep reading the Book of Mormon. Also prepare to hear General Conference!
