Your Weekly Dose of Awesomeness

Friends,

The APs and Mission President basically choose the focus of the Zone Conference and then everyone kinda teaches along those lines.  I've always been one to live my own life though so whatever.

The thing that I hate about the Book of Moses though is that it just stops really abruptly.  Like, cliffhanger status.  Not a fan.  Plus, I'm just really enamored with Abraham's dry sense of humor in verse 1 of chapter 1.  "I saw that it was needful for me to obtain another place of residence."  I should say so Abraham!  You're dad is a false priest of Elkenah who delivered you up to be sacrificed!  Lol.

What a comedian...

Anyway, one sooper dooper cool thing happened this past weekend.  Vicki was baptized in Johnson City on Saturday!!!  For those of you that don't remember, Vicki was an investigator that Elder Richardson and I found over a year ago when I was serving in Johnson City.  It sounds like the missionaries stopped visiting her shortly after I left, and then some of the more recent missionaries called her after finding her teaching record in the meticulously kept (you're welcome) area book!  Then they finished teaching her and she entered into the covenant of baptism and thus unlocked the gate opening to the path of eternal salvation in her life no big deal.

So that was way exciting.

I will definitely have to keep the "disappearing companion" prank in mind.  It's been since Harrison Bay since I did that one and Elder Craig was seconds away from calling the mission president after failing to get a hold of our district leader three times.  I really got him good that time.  It's been like a year now since that happened though.  CRAZY!

Attached is a picture of myself and Elder Henriquez at transfer meeting (yes, I'm looking very sharp.  I know). He went home last week, so I'll miss him. Also, Elder LeSueur and I took a photo as well just before being separated at transfer meeting.  He's now in Harrison Bay and my new companion is Elder Davis who you'll be interested to know came out in the MTC with Elder LeSueur and I.  So this is just going to be another wonderful transfer.  I just feel to mention that Harrison Bay and Pleasant Ridge are two of my past areas that are now zone areas and while I try to avoid being really prideful sometimes, President Thomas S. Monson says "There are no coincidences."

Do what you will with that...

Um, that's probably enough 'awesome' for us both this week.  Take care!  Have a great week!

Love,
Elder Grabinger
