Hello mom, yep today is transfer day. But nothing is happening with me or my companion or the missionaries here. We are all staying here. Which I'm pretty happy about. Me and Elder Hall are getting along well and we have been blessed with some good success here in La Concordia. (because I asked) Elder Hall's mom's name is Heidi Wilkey. She lives in Provo.
On saturday we had another baptism. Our investigator named Angie got baptised. I cant remember if I have even told you guys about her. But if I havnt, she is the girlfriend of a guy that got baptised a few months ago. She is 17 years old. We were able to see alot of good changes that she made in her live during these past few weeks. After her baptism she bore a really good testimony and looked really happy.
A few days ago we finaly got moved into a new house. If you remember, a while ago we got robbed and had to look for a new house. Well we finaly got permision to move into a house that was the house of some other missionaries that used to be here when there were 6 missionaries in La Concordia. It's a nice house. It was super dirty so we had to spend all morning cleaning it. But now it's nice and clean.
Well that's it for this week! The slot to put the memory from my camera doesnt work on this computer so I'm not able to send pics this week. So sorry about that. Next week there will be pics. I love you mom!!!

Hey dad! I'm doing great. We had changes again yesterday. But nothing actually changed with me or my companion or even with any of the elders in the district. Everything is still the same here. Haha, I know that I didnt really like golfing before the mission, but when I get back I think I would like to try it out again. Maybe I'll be able to do it better.
Well in the other email that you sent me, you asked me what would be the basic principles of the gosple. I think the most basic gosple principle would be the love we have for God and for our fellow man. Which are the two most important commandments that we have. If we love God and other people it will be easier to keep all of God's commandments and help other people do the same. Also, in the lesson that we teach about the gosple of Jesus Christ we talk about these 5 principles, Faith in Jesus Christ and in His Atonement, repentence, baptism, the gift of the Holy Ghost, and endure to the end. So those 5 things would also be the things to focus on the most. Well I love you too dad!
