Neat Story:
Unfortunately I don't have a lot of time. We had exchanges today, and things got a little confusing so we got to writing a bit late. I have enough money, and I bought a bike from another Elder. It's at the mission home, so I should be getting it pretty soon. The japanese robe fit too. Umm, Elder Ensslin and I are getting along pretty good, but surprisingly, he's getting transferred. Someone else is going to finish training me - I'm not sure who yet. We have transfers Wednesday.
Great news though; we have two people who are completely ready to be baptized, we just have to set the date. One of them is Omar. He received the lessons but was unable to get baptized in Mesa, because he had to be baptized into his home ward. He's since had a lot of struggles, but we're tryin to get him back ready again. Then we have Alejandro. He's a 16 year old boy from Mexico; we met him through one of the families in the Spanish branch. We've been teaching him in Spanish. We taught him the second lesson last night, I dropped the baptismal commitment, and he accepted. We're hoping everything goes through. We have to finish teaching him all the lessons first, though.
Then we have Kate, a middle aged woman who was previously a member; we just have to get her to stop smoking. Then there's Vanya. She almost seems too good to be true. We'll see, though. I wish I could tell you more, but I don't have a whole lot of time. Tell Becca I said happy Birthday, and tell her to email me. I haven't gotten anything from her yet. I hope all is well back home - I'm learning a lot out here. I miss and love you all.
