First off Selena got baptized! It was such a great baptism and she was smiling the whole time! It has been such a blessing to see the change that she went through. It has just been another testimony builder that the Gospel is true and it really does change lives for the better. I just feel so fortunate to have had this knowledge my whole life and to now have shared it with others who haven't really puts it in perspective.
Sadly I'm starting my last transfer of my mission so those experiences as a full time representative of the Lord is coming to an end but it won't be the last time in my life of seeing those miracles as missionary work continues on for the rest of my life and I'm excited for those experiences. It's definitely bitter sweet to be at this point in my mission but I'm definitely going to be focused on being a finisher and having no regrets in this last transfer.
I'm super excited for this transfer also because I'm with Elder Lamb who is one of my best friends that I've made since being out here! He goes home with me too so it's really crazy how we even got together! We both are excited and ready to finish strong together. It's definitely gonna be a good transfer!
This transfer started out great too! We had a fantastic lesson with a young woman named Brooke that we just started teaching. She has had the discussions before and has retained a lot of the knowledge that past missionaries have taught her. She told us that she really wants to be baptized especially before she goes back to school this fall. She definitely has a strong desire because she actually keeps all of her commitments! We set a date with her to be baptized on August 10th and she is super excited for it! It has definitely been a great start to this transfer!
I love you all! Keep on keepin on and know that you are loved! Have a great week!
