Week 45: New Transfer on the Horizon!! 6/3/2019

Well, another week has come and gone! I can't believe how fast time has flown by and the time I have been out here! It boggles my mind that it is already June and that I am getting ready to hit my halfway point! Where has the time gone? This week is the start of the new transfer and we got the news about what will be happening this last weekend! Elder Beckstrand is leaving, and I will be staying in Edmond and my new companion is gonna be coming from the MTC so I will be training! I am super excited for it! It's gonna be quite the adventure as my entire mission has been up to this point, just a new opportunity for me to learn, and put my trust in God. Things roll a lot smoother when you do. I am also still district leader over here and just when I thought life can't get any busier, it just got busier! I like it though, it's gonna be awesome! I don't know who my new companion is yet, I will find out on Wednesday and let yall know!

This week is also exciting because we have a baptism this upcoming Saturday for this girl named Mia. I'm not sure if I told yall about this family, I may have mentioned it a little bit before in my weekly's, but her stepdad, Brother Jeffery is an active member in our ward. He lost his wife a few years ago to cancer and remarried to this girl named Katya who is from Belarus, a country in Europe. She is not a member of the church and has 2 kids named Mia and Max who was from her last marriage. We have been working with them for a while now and Mia is the one who has made the furthest progression. Max isn't as interested, and Katya isn't quite ready for it yet, but Mia is ready and super excited for it. It's gonna be awesome for not only her, but her mom and her brother who haven't made that decision yet to be baptized. They are such an awesome family and I can't wait to be working with them even more as I have found out that I am staying here!

Well yall, sorry this one is a little shorter than usual. We have some fun plans for the day that I am excited to get on! This week is gonna be super exciting! Being a missionary is awesome and so much fun! I am thankful for every minute of it! I love you all and hope you guys have a great week!!

Love,

Elder Weese
