So to start off, no I didn't get transferred and neither did my companion which means that my next area will be my last. It is crazy. Our week was good, but the best part was on Saturday we received a call from another missionary who said that he had marked an appointment for us. That morning, we had prayed that we could teach 3 new people and that they could accept a baptismal date and, what do you know? We got there and we were able to teach a couple and their daughter and they all accepted a baptismal date for the 16th of February!!!!!!!!
When we left, we were soooooooo happy. It was like the best two year's hallelujah moment. They were all super nice, even the dog (which is a labrador) was great!!!!! GOD ANSWERS PRAYERS, YOU GUYS!!!!!!!!
The only down part of the week was that on Sunday, out of nowhere, I developed a fever. But it is all good. I am taking care of it and already feel a thousand times better. I am thinking about taking vitamins to better my health. We will see.
My memories about my first baptism:
I was nervous and excited at the same time. We had been working with Erica for the entire transfer. I said a prayer to help me feel better. I had spent most of the day before memorizing the baptismal prayer, but in the end, it all worked out and I was able to baptize Erica. I felt good and excited to know that I was doing what I came here to do.
Well, that was my week. Tonight we have a lesson with President Hill so I am super excited to see how president teaches. And this Wednesday, we have zone conference. I will be conducting the meeting so that will be fun as well as the training that me and Bachiochi will give, so pray that all goes well.
Keep having awesome weeks. Be sure to send me pictures of Charlie (Elder Jardine's sister, Jessica, and her husband have chosen Charlotte Rose [aka Charlie] for their baby's name) so I can show everyone here . Be safe and have a great week.
Love you all sooooooooo much!!!!!!
Sincerely,
Elder Jardine
