well we finally had a baptism here in midwood. it only took 4 transfers but it happened. elder storey and i baptized carolina rosario and you can look at the pics below for all that. but yeah it was such a good service and i was so glad that i had a part to play in her conversion as well.
i also have some exciting news..... im getting transfered. i never thought it would happen but im finaly leaving my first area. i have no idea where im going cause usually some other elder has heard one thing or another but i have no idea. so yeah im packing up all my things which really isnt that hard cause i have been living out of a suitcase for the last transfer so it should be pretty easy.
elder storey is going to be training and hes REALLY nervous about that but i have full confidence in him that he will be great with the new haitian speaker in midwood. this last sunday i was asked again to bear my testimony as a last minute move by the bishop and they gave me about 25 minutes. i actually talked for 20 min without having anything prepared and i think that was a miricle in itself that i was able to do that. cause before my mission it was hard getting it up to 10 minutes.
so yeah a lot of the members here are sad to see me leave and our teaching pool is finally looking good so im sad to leave that but i guess the lord has a purpose for me elsewhere. this next transfer im going to start learning french so i can speak better to people and not just limiting myself to just a pure creole. its going to be interesting but with a 5000 page dictionary anything is possible.
i really dont know what else to talk about other than the fact that im kinda sad to leave here but im glad that i left the area in a much better condition than when i found it. things were hard here and im sure they will be hard where ever i go. im hoping that i will get elder jean as my companion cause i think we could do some real work together. idk but ill tell you all about it next week. have a great week everyone and keep up the good work with emails!!! :) :)
