Well, we got standard again. 5 at church. 22 lessons. 8 member presents. So...good news. We'll be having 2 baptisms next week. And 1 the week after. If not 2. They are really good stories. So I'm thinking of telling you later. When I'm home. There's an Elder here, Elder Peterson. From Arizona. Every time I see him (pday) he holds up his fingers with the number of weeks I have left. Today he mistakingly held up 7. I was a little confused for a second, then realized he's not far off! So now, it's hard not to think about. I've been going through my mission in my head every night before I sleep. I think about coming here and meeting all the people I first met. I still run into those people all the time because I've never been transfered far enough. I wont know about transfers until next weekend. But most likely...like I'm 99% sure I'll be in the Deaf Branch only. I'm sending home a couple baptismal programs with the sd card. Just some more people that made it to baptism ;) So, I went shopping last week. I bought some clothes. I got some new jeans, shoes, a shirt, and belts. Fun.
The Lord really is hastening His work. And it really can't be stopped. Everything is moving really fast. This year so far (as far as I know) the Riverside Stake has had 19 baptisms. That's a lot aleady. For a month and a half. It's only going to get better. It's the best time to be a missionary. I'm sad that it ends soon. But when I'm home, and the name tag comes off, I'll keep the things I've learned and use them throughout my life. I can't stop being a missionary. Even in Spanish Fork, Utah. There are people who need that ordinance! Anyway, ttyl.
