Hi Everyone
Ok in my last email I guess I confused everybody. I did not get a car, I'm still on a bike. Since the districts changed the car next to our area (the one we were hoping to get) wasn't going to be needed for its new area because it became smaller. The sisters ended up getting it because... they're sisters.. so no car for us. We are still on bikes. Alls good though.
This week we got devastating news. Our investigator Steven, who's brother introduced him to the gospel, informed us that his mom is not ok with him getting baptized. She thinks that since he was baptized as a baby he doesn't need to be baptized again and if he's getting baptized again it means his first one doesn't count, but Steven wants to be baptized.... his birthday is in February and is ok with getting baptized then but Elder Phillips is worried that since there's so much time until then something could happen that he might not want to anymore. He's really pushing him to be baptized in October. Well we'll see what happens.
I got your packages!! They were really cool and it was so FULL of FOOD! Please thank grandma and grandpa for their packages and the Despains too!! It was really cool that they thought of me enough to send me something. I have so much food now and I bought a gallon of ice cream today so life is good. Also general conference is this week and it will be very cool because it'll be my first one in the mission field. I'm excited!
