Hello everyone.

i hope you enjoyed the pics I sent last week. I just received the transfer announcement and Im staying another transfer. Im excited! This last week we attended ZLC, worked with some less active members. We had some come to church yesterday. Its a great feeling when you visit someone and they come back. Yesterday, Jimmy received the priesthood and it was cool. After he asked us what he has to do to fulfill his duty. We are hope that he will be given a calling. Yesterday we went to church and Elder and I sat down and the bishop came up to me and i thought great. He's gonna want me to ordain Jimmy. i got all nervous cause i haven't ever done that before but then he said Elder the 2nd speaker isn't here will you give the talk? I thought what ME? I just sat down haha what topic? he said anything you want. So I had 10 min to think of what the Spirit was trying to say to me. i said to bishop why not elder haha He can speak tagalog more fluent haha. That morning I wasn't able study the language to loosen up my tongue and practice. For those who are learning or learned a new language know what im talking about. I have a hard time talking in the morning unless I read the B of M. But of course i accepted to talk and i shared a few verses that came to my mind and shared everything that came to my mind as i was up there at the pulpit. i shared about the B of M and what it can do for us. I shared from Alma 37. i wish I would have had it recorded hahaha. But it went really well. I spoke fine and I talked for about 10 min.

I simply testify that if we dont take before hand what we should say but treasure up the word of life, the word of christ, we will know what to say. it will be given us in the very hour, yea the very moment. i enjoy being a missionary and serving others. I have to work hard these last 3 months. i love you all. take care.
