Looking Back

Josh has been recently transferred and doing great. While he is adjusting to a new companion and area, I thought it would be fun to take a walk down memory lane when there is not much else to update you on...

Isn't Josh the cutest little boy? We like to call him "a big, handsome kid."

The Most Recent Baptism

The work is going so well right now. I have an awesome comp named Elder B. He is from Spring City, Utah.... I have no idea where that is. March is going to be a busy month for us, it seems there may be a baptism once a weekend as of right now. It is honestly amazing what you can do when you put EVERYTHING you have not only into your mission, but into the Lord. He will make everything possible, and we have been really trying to do that and have been blessed for it.

One of our investigators, Preston, was a member of a gang. Well we are teaching the lady that he lives with, and he showed up to the lesson and ended up crying and loved it. He has been to church twice, and has an interview to be baptized. I really can't wait. He has been such a blessing for me to work him. His Mom doesn't even have a bed. Working with these people makes me realize how blessed I have been.

I hope all of you are doing well. Work hard, the only way to true happiness is the harder you work...I know each of you will be blessed.

Love,
Elder S.

This will be short because I haven't been feeling very well at all. I am so thankful for the Priesthood and the blessings that come with it.

I'm really excited to share my mission with my friends and family. I think the blog is a great idea and I think it will be a great way for my family and friends to keep up with me.

I love Sac-Town. There is no other place I'd rather be.

Love,
Elder S.
