Feliz Lunes from the tropical land of Republica Dominicana! Sadly I can’t really remember all that has happened this week though I have it written in my journal, which happens to not be with me right now :-) So, I’ll just talk about the things that are most memorable! This past Saturday, WE HAD A BAPTISM!!!!!!!!!! It was a cool young man named Brian. He's 11 and has been attending church on his own for quite some time now. Anyway, it was such a cool experience to go to the service and perform the baptism. We actually showed up late, sadly, because my companion Elder Smith, also being our district leader, had to go to Ozama at 3:00 to do a baptismal interview for the Hermanas [Sister Missionaries] in that area. They’re super cool, by the way, and there’s a picture coming in with some photos that I’m uploading as I’m typing!!!!! YAY! Finally, Photos!!!!!!!!! We also had to do a couple more interviews these past couple days too, so basically...
Buenas Lunes from the tropical land of the Republica Dominicana! Since this land is very tropical, it’s obvious to know that we won’t actually have snow! This White is a little different! This white is the image of hundreds of people in white jump suits! For baptism of course, because there’s no other reason to wear white jumpsuits; it’s a bad fashion statement! Not that I really care about fashion. Anyway, this week is going to be awesome because we have 3 baptisms this weekend and they are definitely happening! This is super awesome because we are on track for another baptism next weekend as well! That’s 4 baptisms this month and there are plenty more that we need to work with, too, who have amazing potential! The sad part is, this is the end of the transfer and so I don’t know if I will be in this area for the others. If not, I don’t mind because the Lord will need my expertise in another area! My Hope and goal as a ...
Good Morning From Sunny California!!! I LIVE!!! Now, tell me who the Lord wants me to go baptize this week! ( Modified Movie Quote, if you guess you will be awesome) I am now serving my time here in the great place of Stockton, CA, which is always given a bad rap for its gang violence and its drugs and its all around danger to people who walk around all day just trying to talk to people about Jesus. Now i want to make everything perfectly clear...this is all true, however, I have been placed in a part where there is a very nice group of people; very little crime, except for the occasional stolen car; and the people are usually pretty open. I live pretty close to the northern border of Stockton, so there isn't the inner city gang junk going on, plus, there are all sorts of neighborhood watch programs everywhere, so they keep us pretty well maintained and alive. If you were worrying about my safety, stop it, but if you were worried about my sanity, please continue...I figure ...
