Golly this week went by in a flash! It was a fun week and it was nice to be serving during this holiday season!
Transfers are this week and luckily I am not being transferred! I really love serving in Canon City 1st Ward and was pretty sure I would be transferred! I was happy when we didn't get a call. The only one getting transferred in our district is Elder McCleve, he is going to East stake. I get to serve as the district leader too.
New Years was pretty laid back. New Year's Eve we weren't allowed to go out much so we went to a Catholic mass that evening and that was pretty neat. New Year's Day we went to a few member's and investigators houses and it was awesome. We went to the Carr's house and they are the nicest people you'd ever meet. They have been investigating the Church for quite a while but I think they will come around.
The highlight of the week was definitely the baptism of Hunter. He is an awesome guy that we have been teaching for about a month and a half. On Thursday he decided to be baptized the next day and that was so cool. It was really last minute but was still attended by a lot of people. He was so prepared for the gospel and it was so cool to see him enter into that covenant with God.

| Hunter's Baptism |
On New Year's Day Hunter was confirmed a member of the Church and given the Gift of the Holy Ghost and that really just made it a special New Year for me. Then both Kyle and Hunter were able to get the Aaronic priesthood and that was so neat. I'm so happy for them.
Well it was a great transfer and I plan on making this next one even better. My testimony is constantly strengthened that this is Christ's Church. The Gospel of Jesus Christ really is the way to happiness and joy. Sometimes we don't notice God's hand in our lives but I can testify that he is always helping along the way.
Anyways love you all and happy New Year!
