Anyway, Things have been great the last few weeks! We had two baptisms on April 16th! We were really excited about that. We are so happy for those people who are coming closer to Jesus Christ and his gospel! I unfortunately didn't sing at that baptism but the other ward had a baptism on Saturday that I sang at. I was rather excited when they asked me to do that. Everyone said that they enjoyed it.
A few P-days ago was interesting. We went fishing and it was the first time that I had ever been fishing. I didn't really develop and opinion of it. All I felt like I was doing was sitting there doing nothing other than wait for something to happen. It wasn't a bad experience but it was no where near amazing. But I wasn't very happy after we went fishing. After we went fishing, there was no time to do anything that we are supposed to do on P-day, like shop. After we were done, we went back to our apartment, got dressed to proselyte, had a little something to eat, and went out to go work. I was not very happy that we weren't able to do the things that we really should have. When we left our apartment I was not in a good mood. What I think is so cool though is that after about an hour of working, I felt great! No longer was I worried and upset about the day. It is amazing how this work truly changes you, even in an hour!
There is a member in the ward here that we have go teaching with us a lot. His name is Woodie and he is great! He has a few puppets and one of them he keeps in the car and will bring it out when he thinks that people will enjoy it. We were going to see an older brother in the ward and Woodie decided to bring Tony (the puppet) in with him. Woodie said, "He is a kid at heart, He will love this!" We went in and he wasn't in his room, he was upstairs listening to someone who comes to that retirement home once a month to sing to them. We decided we would go see him up there. When we got there, Tony came out and was talking with everyone! Woodie and Tony went around and talked to each of the residents there. There was one woman there who even started dancing with Tony! When the man who was singing noticed them, he asked, "Does he sing?" So Tony went up and sang with him! It was so funny! I think those people really enjoyed that. I really enjoyed watching it as well.
I have a new companion! His name is Elder Lilly and he is from Pleasant Grove, Utah. We lived about 10 minutes away from each other! He will have been out a year this month. I am excited to work with him. Things are going to be great here in Ft. Wayne! This is going to be a good time!
Thank you for all that you have done for me!
Happy Mothers' Day!!!
