a new kind of zone picture
Hey Everyone,
Another week has flown by. Since we had P-day on Tuesday last week the whole week was just weird. I always felt like it was a day earlier than it actually was. This week was still absolutely amazing. There's this girl we're teaching named Kandace who's ten. Her grandma is a member and the first time we went over she was just crazy. Bouncing off the walls not paying attention and tons of other stuff. Last week something changed and all of the sudden she was paying attention, listening and even asked when she can be baptized. She's on date for March 7th right now. Then there's the Whisler family. They have Covid, and luckily, their baby doesn't. If he had, it would have extended their quarantine and that sucks because Allie is going to be baptized on Saturday. Everything's okay and she nailed the Baptismal Interview so this Saturday she'll be baptized. We also got her two kids, Charlie and Evelyn, back on date because they went out of town and other crazy stuff.
There's a lot going on right now and it is awesome. We're very blessed to have so many people to teach. It's been a lot of work, but it is so worth it. We had in person church again, and this time we also had a second hour. We finished church and had branch council, and to finish it all up we had some stuff to do with the branch president. We ended up being at church for about 4 hours. It was awesome! I missed church so much, and hopefully I'll keep going until the end of my mission. Things are fantastic out in the wonderful town of Lone Pine. Till next week.
