This week was fantastic! I am really starting to love the area more and the people are awesome! I was able to see some awesome miracles and just have a lot of fun. We also had our last interviews with president Rehm this week, so that was a bit sad too.
It was a great start to this week being able to meet the rest of the zone for pday. We played sports in the gym and it was just fun being with great people. It was a really cool experience I had because one of the missionaries serving here was really struggling with stuff at home and was off from the rest of the group for a while. So I went over and asked him what was up and he just kind of told me everything he was struggling with and I had no idea what to say so I just listened for a while until he got it all out. I was able to give him a blessing and then we went and played some more basketball. It was cool though because he texted me that night and told me how much it meant to him even though I didn't really do anything haha. Fortunately he is doing better now!
Love,
It was pretty cool because yesterday we had about 20 minutes to go tracting and we set a goal to find one new investigator. So we tracted to whole thing and got to the last door and this guy was standing outside smoking and we walked up and he started off by saying "I know why you are here and I'm not interested." So we just started talking to him about his life and things and then just tied it in with the Book of Mormon and the gospel and asked if we could come back and teach him more and he said yes! I thought it was pretty funny and also pretty cool that when we promised the blessings of the gospel of Jesus Christ he turned out to be interested!
Also it was so so cool and great because John was baptized last weekend!!! I forgot to put it in my last email but Elder Garton was able to baptize him! I was bummed that I was not able to see him be baptized, it was sad to get transferred a week before he was baptized but I was super happy to hear it all went well!
Another cool thing that happened this week was stake coordination! It went really well but the cool thing was, we did it in this building that the used to do temple ordinances in, like baptisms for the dead, but it's not a temple! It said "Holiness to the Lord" on the front and I just thought it was super cool to have a meeting in there.

Anyways it was a great week, I felt the Spirit a lot and have really enjoyed teaching members here and testifying of Jesus Christ! I hope everyone also had a fun week!
