I've been doing pretty good this week. We got a lot of work done, and I got to commit a lady named Mickey to baptism this week, which is my first baptismal commitment! She is 75 years old and wants to join the Church because of how much it changed her family's lives. We also have another investigator that loves the Church because of her friend that's LDS, and so she's very excited about the Gospel.
In addition, an inactive member that Elder Robinson has been working with for 7 1/2 months, just all of a sudden started coming back to Church, and decided to completely turn his life around. He stopped drinking, started hanging out with LDS friends, and is even reading and praying everyday. His goal is to get married in the Temple with his non-member wife. So everything is getting pretty exciting right now.
And to make it even crazier, Elder Robinson is getting transferred, so I'm going to have to take over the area. I'll still be junior companion, but I'll be the missionary that knows everything about the area. I'm a little nervous, but I have faith that this is what's supposed to happen, probably to help me be more humble. I can't think of anything else to say, so that's all for now, God be with you.
