Last Week of the Transfer

June 7, 2011

Hello One and All,

It feels like this week has gone on forever, but then again it was a good week. We went to the temple this morning which is why I am writing so late today. Thanks everyone for the letters, they were appreciated.

This last Wednesday we had an extremely drunk investigator jump in our backseat. He proceeded to talk about how much he needed our help and the "pinche diablo". We rebuked him for 10 minutes or so until we finally pulled him out of our car and walked him back to his apartment. The next time we saw him he wouldn't look at us and seemed pretty embarrassed, hopefully he gets over it.

We had another baptism. Zenaida Ruiz. It went super good and we had a huge turn out from the ward and the branch. Lots of her non member extended family came too. President and Sister Greer came down too which was way neat. I got to baptize her, I was pretty nervous because she had just had her knee operated on and I didn't want to undo anything, but it went great. Thankfully she is small.

We are supposed to have a baptism this week, but we're not so sure it's going to happen now, so we'll have to wait and see.

I ate chiva for the first time the other day. It was way good.

Well, I'm just about out of time, but I love all of you and the church is true and the work is going great out here. It'll be interesting to see what happens with transfers coming up.

Love,

Elder Richards
