Transfers

so this last week was the last week of the transfer! we had a great 6 weeks together and i will always remember this district! our brave district leader, Elder Slade (the one who hid my mattress in the attic when he first got to poinciana) is leaving back to arizona on wednesday! the other picture is what they call a lightning storm! we dont have these in utah! (morgan remember that time when it was super lightningy outside and wherever you pointed there would be lightning? well it was like 10 times that crazy! there would just be lightning webbed accross the entire sky! it was AMAZING!!! i even got a lightning strike with my camera! they dont call this place the lightning capital of the world for nothing!

well good friends! i am getting transfered from kissimmee! i dont know where i will go(probably somewhere up in orlando!) but it is a little sad cuz i wont be able to see Carmen's baptism! she has a date for the 12th and she just has to quit smoking before she can get baptized....she did get your letters though family! and she absolutely loved them! she said they were the most beautiful things she had ever read! so thank you for that! she actually called us right after she got them and said that she wanted to be baptized next sunday! but we had to tell her that she had to quit smoking first! so i know that she will get baptized, and so can you guys keep praying for her?! thanks! other than that we had a good week. i had an experience that really was strange for me that i didnt think would happen but did...but i know from it that families are in all honest truth forever! and that this church is true! and that the plan of salvation is real! i caught myself asking, is this all for nothing? is there actually life after this one or is this it?.....but i can promise that there is and that this gospel is here for a reason and we are never alone and god loves us! that we are given commandments for the specific reason to be able to be worthy enough to return to our heavenly father! i know it!
