The East Coast Zone

On Wednesday transfers happened and I received a new companion. Elder Hipp! He was in my district at the MTC and we became good friends...and now we're companions! He's from Baltimore...so not too far away. We are both really excited for the transfer and to see what happens in the Sandy Zone. It should be a good six weeks!

This week were interviews with the mission president. As a zone leader that is quite an undertaking. The entire zone comes in between 8:30am and 4:00pm to interview with President Miller. We performed trainings throughout the day with the individual companionships and answered questions. It was actually one of the most exhausting days of my mission so far because constant training was involved.

We also met a wonderful couple this week. They are prepared to accept the gospel and desire to be sealed in the temple. The first step is to have them get married, which should happen this week, so that they can be baptized. Some of the most special experiences on the mission are when you work with couples and families so I am cherishing this opportunity. They are truly blessed by the spirit that they are able to feel.
