Well this week has been pretty exciting around here. There has been a lot of things happening. Saturday we went down to Carlsbad to a mission meeting and Elder Nelson from the twelve was there and also Elder Halstrom and Elder Hanny. I got to meet all of them. It was awesome to get to shake their hands. They all spoke to us which was way cool. Sunday was a special stake conference and Elder Halstrom was there and spoke to us. Sunday night there was a special meeting for 4 wards in the stake. At that meeting the ward bounderies were changed, a new ward was made, and all the wards got new bishoprics. It was kind of disappointing because my area or the ward I am over lost a lot of cool families and getting a new bishop is going to be weird. We are going to be busy helping him out for a little bit. We have been trying to have a lesson with that one girl but her moms got a crazy schedule and its been really hard to get over there. hopefully this week. So there is this family that has been being taught since like last October and they have had a baptismal date and everything and it fell through and we have contiued to teach them and they come to church every sunday, they pay tithing and she is a visiting teacher but for some weird reason the wife has just been having a real hard time getting baptized, But yesterday we got a text from them and they said that they were ready to be baptized, it was so crazy! So they should be getting baptized here in the next couple of weeks which is super exciting! Yesterday I went on exchanges in the redhawk ward with my district leader elder Norton, Hes from Draper. We had a lesson with this guy in their area that they had contacted into. They met with him and his wife before and we were planning on meeting with them both again, but his wife was gone so he invited his friend over. His friend is actually a pastor of a church around here and he is getting his masters degree from a seminary around here. Our lesson basically turned into kindof a bash session where they kept asking us tons of deep questions and we kept diverting it and asking them questions to make it not a bash. But these guys were to nice about it and we won the bash, they kept contradicting themselves which was pretty funny, but it was really cool because this was the first situation like this that I have felt good in. I am doing great! I did get the package and thanks for that! The bag works great, I dont use it to often but when I do it does. We did not get to have dinner with that one guy and now we wont be able to because he lives outside of our area. Thats so cool the Brinkerhoffs got their call thats really exciting. Brittney hasnt told me that Bekahs getting married, Thats crazy! Did you guys get a invitation or something? I have been riding my bike, I ride it everyday, because I cant run. Thats cool that they got accepted. Thats cool that they are expecting, and thats cool they had their baby. Everything is going great! just staying busy. I love you mom!
Love Elder Rindlisbacher!
