Halloween

Me & Sis. Reeves at a ward Halloween party

Howdy, everyone!

So I'm not going to be transferred and I'll be here with Sis. Reeves until right before Christmas at least. It will be annoying if I get transferred next time because then I'll be in a new area only a week before Christmas and won't know anyone, but I guess I'll cross that bridge when I get there :) I'm glad that I'm not going anywhere so I can be here for Jamie's baptism. And I also get to continue teaching Jennifer and that's what I look forward to the most every week. I mean really, who takes notes during a missionary lesson? She's so awesome. She came to church and already feels right at home. I'm sure she'll set a baptism date soon. I've discovered that I really love teaching the gospel. The more I teach the more I learn and want to learn more and it's so exciting when you see the wheels start to turn in other people's heads and they really start to understand. Maybe I'll be a seminary or institute teacher one of these days. That way I won't ever get out of the habit of studying and teaching the gospel and learning more every day.

The stake conference here is in a couple weeks and we are having two members of the Seventy there. They think a new stake president is being called, and also Elder Arnold is touring the mission, so he'll also be at our next zone conference. So everyone has been looking forward to that. Though, he'll probably just call us all to repentance since this isn't exactly the most happening mission. So guess I better go find some more people to teach....that's the hard part. I can teach, it's the finding anyone who will listen....

The ward here had a nice little Halloween party and chili cook-off and it was a lot of fun and we had investigators there. Well, I guess I better go. Love you all!
