All Star Companionship

Hello everybody!

This week, there's not a whole lot to report. Elder Pulsipher and I are staying really busy, just maintaining what we have going right now! We are actually going to be getting another set of Elders in our area for about a week to help us out. This will help us to keep finding, while still doing our necessary maintenance. 

The Mission is starting to do WebEx meetings (kinda like a HUGE Google chat) to cut down on miles usage, and the first one with District Leaders was this week. Elder Pulsipher and I were mentioned several times as the companionship that is leading the Mission in baptismal dates, and were commended by the AP's and President Packard on the work we're doing. President Packard (on another occasion) called us the "All-Star companionship." Most of that is Elder Pulsipher, but I imagine that I'm at least filling in some of the cracks :P haha

But all of this success hasn't come without setbacks. Belinda, who had a baptismal date as well, is not interested in the Church anymore because of the recording incident. One of our baptismal dates, Brian, has disappeared, and we may have to drop him to make time and effort available for other causes. David (younger brother of Steven and Mike) has to wait until spring to get baptized (he has to make Confirmation in the Catholic Church first :P)

We are excited and ready to keep working hard, though. There is so much potential here in this ward, and we're only beginning to unlock it!

We should be Skyping at about 12:00 your time. 

Mom, The story about the fire department was pretty funny :) haha-Dad filled me in on some of the repercussions, and it was pretty funny! 

Also, thanks for the Christmas package :) You guys should be getting yours this week, but don't open it until Christmas when we're Skyping! haha
