Hey Everyone!

 September 17, 2012

Hi Family!

Sounds like the week's been good for everyone! This has been a good week. So I know I said transfers would be Wednesday, but President Irwin surprised us, they're today! 
 
So the news, I'm staying in Pardubice, and I'll be with Elder Sewell, my first international companion!!! He is from England and has been out for about a year. He is so great. At the moment I'm in Prague with Elder Newell though, waiting for our companions so we can go with them.
 
It's been a harder week this week as our investigators haven't been the most reliable, but it's been a great one. Elder Heath and I worked hard and did what we could.
 
Our new investigator is doing great though! We met with him and we really listened and asked a lot of questions to understand his concerns. He said he is really searching for truth here in life. He is one investigator we have who hadn't been making much progress. He's doing really great though and we're glad to be working with him.
 
We also went to Jihlave this week for a baptismal interview with an investigator there! It was someone who Elder Simcock and I found on exchanges. It was so great to see him, that he had really walked the path of the gospel and has now entered the waters of baptism. I know these elect people are really here and I'm so grateful that we're finding them.
 
I really don't have too much to report about this week though. I've just been really learning the importance of forgetting myself, my needs and wants, things that are important to me, and just thinking completely about others. It's not always easy or fun, but it really is just so very important.
 
One miracle we had, was this less active member we are teaching came to district conference in Prague on Sunday! It was so great to see her there and I'm so glad that she made that great decision to follow Christ.
Hope you all have a great week though. love you all so much and I'll look forward to hearing from you next week!
