A Transfer Surprise :)

What an awesome week!

 

First i loved hearing about how everyone was doing this week, and its so exciting to hear how the whole family is getting into the missionary work :)

 

This week really was a GREAT week. It was a little crazy though so i cant remember everything, but ill hit some of the big ones.

 

The most exciting thing was Susan was baptized this Saturday! it was so amazing to see her take that step! It was at 9:00am and things went really well, the only thing one thing really went wrong. All week Susan had been telling me " I wont do it if that water is cold, I wont" haha so ALL week ive been promising that the water would be nice and warm. But when we got to the building at 8 we started to fill up the font, and by 9:10 it was still only one step deep. So in a panick because we needed to start, i flipped on the cold water too. We let the Water run through the whole service, and thankfully it was full when it was time for the actual baptism. Susan was pretty ticked though because it ended up making the water VERY cold haha. She came up to me after and said "OHHHH YOU LAIR! That was like the Polar Bear Plunge in there!" haha and she has yet to stop telling me that :)

Over all though the baptism was GREAT and there were tons of people there to support her. Sister Cobabe was there as well as some other missionaries that susan knew and it was really fun to see all of them.

 

The other exciting news was that Friday night i got a call from my mission president. I assumed it was something about our baptism..but Nope. He asked me if i would be willing to take an assignment as a Sister Training Leader. haha I have been freaking out about it for days, because well, thats a lot of responsiblity i feel like. We are in charge of helping train and just help all the sisters in the desert part of the mission.

I am still in Mesa Linda haha going on 7 1/2 months :) but i have a new companion!

Her name is sister Davis. She is From Hyrum Utah, and went to USU for graphis design. She is awesome and im way excited to start working with her :)

(oh and sister Johnson and sister Cobabe are comps now, and i get to do exchanges with them now as a STL!)

Anyways those were the 2 highlights..and they kind of trump everything else that happened this week haha.

Ill try and send some pictures later, but theyre all on sister Cobabe and Sister Johnson's Cameras

 

I love and miss you all so much!

Love Sister Rebecca Redd
