More Baptisms!

Hey Everyone !

How are you all doing? Sounds like its been a good week for everyone, minues your camera getting stolen em !! That totally stinks !! I lost like 200 pictures of my mission when mine got stolen. Well I definatly had an eventfull week. Elder Richards of the 70 was out here for a mission tour. We had meetings on Wed, Thursday, and Friday, then again on Sunday for Stake Conference. Wednesday was a meeting with all the bishops, ward mission leaders, and stake presidents in our mission, it was really good !! Thursday was zone conference, which I had to conduct. It wasn't as bad or scary as I thought it would have been. It went well. Friday was a leadership meeting for all zone leaders, district leaders, and trainers. It was pretty good ! After that we had a zone leader counsel which was fun. Overall it was really good ! Oh ya so Elder Richards interviewed 5 people from every zone conference. Ours had like 50-60 people there and who got picked....I did ! Ofcourse haha, I had a feeling I was gonna get picked. I was pretty scared, Elder Richards is intimidating, but I tell you what I had one of the best interviews ive ever had. It was so good. He gave me alot of awesome advice and we had a good talk. It was like 20 min long so it was really fun. There is alot of stress gone now that the week is over. Then yesterday we had interviews with President. It was such a good interview, I loved it. He is so sweet, I love him so much !

Then on Saturday I had to privilege of going back to Mt Vernon !!!! Esther Boatang was baptized !! She is the one Elder Larochelle and I found, shes the jazz fan haha !! It was amazing to not only be back in mt vernon but to see her get baptized ! She was so excited !!!!! I was so happy to be there, you have no idea. In my interview with president the first thing he said is " So do you miss mt vernon? " I was like " You have no idea ! " haha. He said well at least your being honest :) Things are going pretty good here. Im starting to get used to it a little more each day. I was just thinking, next transfer is when we do our mothers day call.....crazy !!!! time is going by way to fast.

Oh ya guess what?! The zone leaders in ashburn are 2 of my best friends out here....as a zone leader you can call other zones ( hope that makes sense) usually you cant call anybody who isn't in your district....anyways so they called me and said " Hey we had dinner with the mccoys !! They are sweet !!! There is another baptism this saturday for this girl named rachell oku. They want me to baptize her so im trying to find a ride down there !!! It would be sweet !!!

Sunday night was one of the best nights ever !! So Alex Boye did a fireside/concert at the temple visitors center. Oh man it was SO good. If you EVER have the chance to see him perform live, go to it !! He is an amazing entertainer...hes hilarious !! You would love him !! I got some videos I will send home !!!

Anyways thats all the exciting news that I have for this week !!! I love you guys !! I will send some pics
