This has been a crazy week, just like transfers always are! Missionary work almost gets put on the back burner for a couple days with one companion leaving and a new guy coming, especially when he's right out of the MTC! Elder Lamb packed up on Tuesday night, and we spent a little bit of Monday and Tuesday going around and saying goodbye to some of the people he had gotten to know really well. He left on Wednesday at 6:00 (we had to get up at 4:30. It wasn't too fun). It was really hard to see him leave -- I actually teared up a tiny bit that night, which NEVER happens to me when I'm saying goodbye to a companion.
My new companion is Elder Guzzle. He's a really good guy and he's going to be a great missionary someday. He's really quiet and pretty shy, which makes getting to know him tough, but we've already made a little bit of progress there and we've started to get a little closer. Out of the 3 missionaries I've trained, he definitely knows the most about the gospel. He just needs help with being more social and having more confidence in lessons! I don't actually have any pictures with him on my phone, but I'll make sure I get one next week so I can send it!
We have 2 baptisms coming up this weekend for Hope and Eddie! Hope's is on Saturday and Eddie's is on Sunday. We're really, really excited for Hope to get baptized!.... oh and Eddie is alright too ;) haha just kidding, we're really excited for Eddie too but Hope's conversion story is so crazy and I just get super happy every time I think about it. If she's not the only reason I was sent here to this mission, I know she's at least a big part of it. It was really hard to see her say goodbye to Elder Lamb, the three of us just had a really special relationship and it's hard to see that end! But the good news is that we have a big mission conference with Elder Brent Nielson this Friday so he'll get to come back and see Hope's baptism on Saturday!
This should a a great week, I'm really excited about everything that's going on! Talk to you guys next week
