Oh good news! We have a baptism coming up next week! WOOT WOOT!!!!!!!! Her name is Louisa. Her Husband has been a less active member for years but he had home teachers come by often and they referred us to her. She is Catholic. they are both around their fifties. And she is absolutely awesome. She reads the Book of Mormon everyday for atleast an hour if not two. They gave her the first lesson b4 i came here. And then me and Elder Tonga have tught her the rest. But we have been teaching here all according to her needs and by the spirit at every visit which is really good. Elder Tonga was with His Trainor two transfers now he's with me. His trainor liked to do things a little differently and Elder Tonga really didnt get to teach very much. But I try to always give him plenty of room to teach cause he is really good. But she is quitting smoking and then we are teaching her the rest of the commandments and she is ready! She is so solid. She loves the Book Of Mormon she knows its true, and she really wants to be baptized more than anything. And I am realyl glad I was able to be able to be an Instrument in God's hands in helping his wonderful Daughter. It is so amazing. I feel very blessed. things are going awesome over here Hannah. And I love Elder Tonga and missionary work. I am changing my life forever, while I am in the service of the Lord.

Sorry, I didnt find out where I was going until transfer meeting on thursday last week. But I kind of had a feeling that I was going to go out to the other side of the mountains, or go metro. And I did haha. I am in Lafewood Colorado, its basicly a city branch off of Denver. I have an absolutely amazing companion now, his name is Elder Tonga and yep he is from Tonga. We get a long really really good. He has been out two transfers previous and this is his third transfer, and my goal is for him to train next transfer cause he is really good and could totally do it. But Im sorry I didnt talk about training very much, I have been busy, and I started writing you a letter a couple weeks ago but I havent been able to finish it yet cause I've been really busy especially last P-day but I will try and get it done now. Elder Galenzoski is an outstanding Servant of the Lord. He was a mini Missionary back in his home town for about three weeks cause a missionary went home three weeks early to get to school on time or something like that, but he was trained well in the Mtc, I didnt really have to do that much. I mostly just shared a little advice about missionary work and stuff with him that I know works good and yeah. I know he will take care of Fruita and the Investigators we were seeing. I am a little disapointed I didnt get to stay with My Son longer but I didnt need to, he is all trained and learned up, he'll do awesome. So you can just send the driving record to the mission office address and they'll give it to me. The address is 999 E Tufts Ave Cherry Hills Village, CO 80113 I think that is right. and yes I did get the package gma and gpa sent me, I am sorry Ididnt get to write them back yet, so busy, and I dont write that fast. But Mom you should'nt be worried cause I am having the time of my life. Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it, and I doing fine. Better than fine, Im doing Aweome! I had never ever really thought about or realized how much of an Impact I can have on peoples lives as a missionary, or how much serving a mission can have such a big impact on my life. it is amazing. But i am running out of time to email so I'll see ya later.
