Getting a new companion/Teaching a lot of people!!!

Elder Lyman's email this week:

P-Day again. So as for last week's French, it was Alma 7:11 if you want to check it. (Elder Lyman sends a French sentence each week for us to try and translate. Last week's sentence was: "Et il ira, subissant des souffrances, et des afflictions, et des tentations de toute espèce; et cela, afin que s'accomplisse la parole qui dit qu'il prendra sur lui les souffrances et les maladies de son peuple."

For this week; "Or voici le commandement: Repentez-vous, toutes lest extrémités de la terre, et venez à moi, et soyez baptisées en mon nom, afin d'etre sanctifiées par la réception du Saint-Esprit, afin de vous tenir sans tache devant moi au dernier jour."

We got the transfer e-mail on Saturday and I'm staying here. I'll be getting a new companion, his name is Elder Evans and I don't know him at all, he's pretty under-the-radar in the mission. He'll come Wednesday.

As for this week, it went pretty well and there were some pretty cool things that happened. The other day we taught a couple less-active/pretty much active now people and a few of their family members. They're doing really good and stuff and have just made crazy progress since I got here. Then their family has been taught some but hasn't been super interested, though they like us and are really nice to us. Anyways a sister was there and she had a broken rib and was in lots of pain and was very miserable so they asked if we could give a blessing, so we did after the lesson. She was greatful and all. Then yesterday her sister, the member, told me at church that she got way better after the blessing and was up and about and had been trying to call us to thank us and had starting reading the Book of Mormon on her own. Also the mom, who is very nice but just didn't have any desire to come to church and was just not really interested at all, she saw the difference and was amazed and I guess she has been reading as well. So that's cool.

Also, the guy who was baptized last transfer gave us the number of his friend/maybe brother-in-law a while back and we finally got a rendez-vous with him. We taught with the recent convert and it went really good and the guy seems really solid. Also other missionaries in the area called a wrong number but told the guy about who we were anyway and he said he'd see us. It ended up he lives in our area so we set up a rendez-vous and he is awesome and very solid. We taught him again last night then went to the YSA FHE and he really seemed to like everything and we're seeing him Tuesday.

So that's some of the good stuff that happened. I need to wrap up soon cuz we need to go do some stuff but that was pretty much the week. Things are going pretty well. Love and miss you all.
