First off, I just want to say Happy Birthday to my beautiful sister, Kiera!!!! I can't believe that you are turning 17 tomorrow. I want you to know that I love you so much, and I wish that I could be there for it. You are such and amazing and incredibly talented person. Your such a great example to me because of the love and kindness that you show for others! LOVE YA TONS!!
There really isn't too much to write about this past week. Not too much happened. We did have a fun BBQ dinner with Gulfport Branch on Wednesday. Elder and Sister Smith, a Senior Couple down there pulled it all together at the last moment and we had a good turn out for a short notice. Then after that I stayed down in Gulfport all day Thursday on exchanges with Elder Stuart. We had a pretty good time together.
Jordan, (the investigator that came to church last week), has dropped us for the time being. We kept on trying to get in contact with him throughout the week and he never responded. Then on Friday we finally get a text from him telling us that he needs some time to think things out. He said that church left him with an odd feeling and that he was confused. Elder Stephens and I think that it might have been when President Emery came and talked about Priesthood keys. Even though that is exactly the same way that Christ had established the church, it can still be a bit confusing to some. Hopefully we can keep on meeting with Jordan and Sharee again. They are such great people. Please keep them in your prayers. Thanks.
Guess what else happened this week. Charley got married to a member here in the St. Pete ward. Charley was the one that was baptized at the end of December, and he had been dating this member for the past few months. It was so exciting to see them get married. For their honeymoon they are going to visit the Orlando temple. It is so great to see how well that Charley is doing, and he is going to do great things in the church. I love him and his New York accent so much. He really is such a cool guy.
There's not anything else that I can think of to share at the moment. We just need to find some more people to teach this week so that we can get the members to be more involved. It's awesome because so many of them are really wanting to help fellowship.
This Saturday we have transfer emails. So we will be finding out if Elder Stephens and I are staying together for another transfer or not. Hopefully we will be staying together again.
Love you all!!
