Sushi and Baptisms

Thanks! :D Nothing much is going on around here either so... I love you. That's about all too.


Oh yeah. We had a baptism. That’s what was going on. Forgot to tell you about that. We baptized Gatluak. It was awesome. He's way cool! And we also set a soft date with a Japanese girl named Sanae.

I was going to send you pictures today... But I can't find the cord for my camera. Don't worry. I still haven't forgotten. I'll send them.

Oh yeah. I also learned how to make sushi!!! It was good. We're like, very pro now. I'm very excited about that because now that I'm poor and can't afford to go out to sushi, I can just make it. So that means I still get my sushi fix :D Awesome.

How are the Olympics? We have a member that keeps us slightly updated. He told us that the US lost to Canada in hockey last night :/ bummer. But then again, it is Canada.

So yeah, I guess there actually is a lot going on. Had a baptism, have two more with a date set, and two more that are getting close. I've already doubled the average for baptisms. Maybe I should just come home now. Just kidding.

Oh yeah. Elder Jergensen. I've never met him, but I know of him. He was the ZL in the zone I'm in now right before I got here, and he's a ZL with Elder Ware right now. That's nuts that his relative is going to be the new president! That’s going to be a change. Almost a full year with one president, and over a full year with another. That should be interesting.

Hope everything is well with you.
Love you.

p.s. - I forgot to tell you. I gave a talk in church about hope two Sundays ago. And... my companion, Elder Waldrop. Well, he started his mission in Washington, went home, and is now finishing his mission here in Iowa. So he was talking about Bellingham, Washington, and I was like "Hey, do you know the Barlows?" and he was totally like "Yeah dude. I totally know the Barlows!" Isn't that nuts! He was in the same ward as the Barlows, so we were talking about them. You should tell them that I'm serving with him now! Anyway, thought that was a crazy story. Small world, eh?
