WOW it sure has been quite the eventful week here! lots of unexpected things and changes, haha! first off we had a awesome weekend, Brother Butler got baptised on Sunday! it was such an amazing baptism! there was so much ward support and love. the whole family didnt all get bap because they are still getting over coffee, but brother buter was going to get baptised weather we wanted him to or not! he was so excited and so ready! after the whole family seeing their dad get baptised and feeling the spirit they are all alot more excited and ready! the rest of them will be getting baptised in 2-3 weeks! so exciting! he had asked me to baptism him and it was such a sweet expirence! he came up out of the water and gave me a big huge and cryed! it was way sweet to be with him after in the dressing room! to hear him talk about how he felt and his testimony! the whole service was amazing! at the end bishop invited him to stand up and bare his testimony andit was so powerful! he had everyone there crying! it was aweosme! :) there was about 50 ppl there, it was way full, tons of support! Ill send pics!
The next big news is that i am getting transfered...my least favorite thing aboout the mission. its exciting to go some where new and meet new ppl and get a new companion but it freakin sucks to leave all the amaizng people that i have grown so close too. but alls good! This transfer has been kinda shock for me because i really thought that i was going to be the one staying, but i had no idea. i am getting transfered to more central Mesa. i am not sure exaclty where my area lays but i know that the zone covers south to North from the 60 to Mckellips and then around Stapley RD. thats about all i know so far! haha, transfers are tomarro so i have been busy packing up all my junk and getting ready! saying good byes and eating alot because every one wants to feed me before i leave! haha. I am going to be a zone leader with elder piaz! he is a really good missionary! i served around him up north so we already know each other and we are really excited! i am a little nervous about it all but it will great! It was saturday at 5:00 that president called me to ask me if i would do that and it really shocked me! haha! it will be good and i am excited! I will be in a car so that will be really nice as well! :) i feel really good with what has happend here in the salt river stake in the past 3 months and believe that things will pick up even more! elder hiatt will do great and is excited to be taking over his first area! :) we have 9 people that are solid and schedualed for baptism coming up in the rest of january and febuary and he will do great! i will be able to come back and be a part of the baptisms when that time comes so that makes leaving a little easier! lots of amaizng people, miricles, and memories here, sad to leave but i will some how love my new area just as much if not more! exciting times for sure! :)...so that is about all that is new here haha! and i am excited for it all!
I will have to transfers all my perscriptions over to a nearer Walmart! shouldnt be a big deal at all but i wont have the time to get my perscriptions filled today! but i am good for a while so alls good! :) thank you so much for all that you have and are doing for me and making it all possible! what a amazing expirence this is and it cannot be found or bought any where else! so thank you!
