Hey Everyone!!
So it has been a
really really good week! I love being here with Elder Berry! I am excited to be
back to Tucson actually! I do really miss the Gila Valley but I am happy to be
here! We have a good ward and a lot to do! We are teaching a guy named
Cornelius and last week was really cool to be teaching him! He is 23, he just
finished a deployment in Italy and Afghanistan as a Para-trooper, and he is
also a fireman and is awesome and so funny! Last week is when he really started
to recognize the Spirit! It was so cool! It was on Thursday that he got his
answer and he recognized that God was letting him know that this is true! It
was so cool! It is fun to be teaching him!
We are also teaching
a guy named Chris who is also awesome! He just graduated and was introduced to
the church by one of his friends and is just eating it up! It is fun to see how
much he enjoys reading from the Book of Mormon and how much it is already
starting to mean to him! It is great!
To clarify a few
things that was unclear in the last email. I am still a zone leader; I am just
in the North stake with Elder Berry! Which is fun! Elder Berry is from North
Alberta Canada and I have known him for a long time! He is awesome and I am
happy to be with him. I actually said I would get transferred here at the
beginning of the last transfer! Just had a feeling! Ha-ha the North is a little
different being that it is a more well off area of Tucson! It is nice! Our zone
is much smaller than the last one I had which is nice! We are over the
University YSA 1st ward! Most of our members/people we work with either go to
the U of A or Pima Community College! It is so much fun! I love being in the
YSA! It is so much fun! One of the biggest differences here is that our area is
so big! We have to, on average, have a half hour drive between appointments
here. Which is fine, I had forgotten that Tucson was like that! But I love it!
Have a good week!
