Hello my family!!! how are you guys doing this week? i hope everything is going great for you guys! it sounds like your week has been pretty fun. and that would be really cool to see the bees play at state. tell them good luck for me, olivia! this week for me has been pretty good. i will tell you guys really quick about how it has been going. i wont be able to stay on for very long because i am on exchange with the Assistant, Elder Gabriel, and he will need to use the computer after me because he doesnt have an account here at the LanHouse(computer place).
this week went pretty well. except once again we didnt have any baptisms! that is pretty ruff! it seems like it has been a while now! but i am still proud of the work we did in this area where nobody has baptized more than four in a transfer in the history of the mission. we baptized 6. so i guess we are working well. it should have been better though! but we will prepare everything for the next transfer. there is an eternal investigator in our area. her family is a family of members. she wants to be baptized but the family is always telling her that she need s to prepare more and think about it before she decides. i am going to take Elder Gabriel there to talk to her in an interview format so that the family wont be there putting these thoughts in her mind. she has been to church for about 5 months!!! so maybe we could end up with a baptism this week. who knows! but last week was alright. we had a bunch of exchanges with the elders. i really like my zone and i am trying to help them the best way that i can. i think i learned more in this exchange with Elder Gabriel about being a leader than the rest of the transfer. I need to learn how to be firm at times with the elders. can you imagine that he said that i am soft spoken. i dont know why the heck he thinks that! i think he is crazy hahaha. but ya i am learning quite a bit this exchange. but i guess this exchange was to see if i really know how to be a zone leader. so it was pretty important haha. i felt pretty good about the day yesterday. he is going to stay here tonight too and we will finish the exchange tomorrow morning haha. i learned tons but dont ever want to do a 2 day exchange ha. just one day is great for me ha. but everything is going pretty great here. how about there in idaho? how is uncle scott? and helen? i hope they are doing a lot better! well i have got to get going. Elder Gabriel would like to sleep today since it is the first pday he has had in about 5 months. well love you guys and hópe eveything is going awesome! love you! Tchau!
love,
Elder Long
