Things going well


Hello world!
 
Point of information if there were letters that were sent last week I don't have them yet because it is transfer week! That means that I'm getting a new companion.  Elder Berardi will be switching languages to ASL (American Sign Language) and will be covering three missions worth of area.  He's very excited, because the companion he is going with is also from where Elder Berardi grew up.  In fact that is how he learned sign language.  So my new companion will be coming in on this Wednesday and his name is Elder Paetznick.  I don't know anything about him, but I'm sure I'll get to know him over the next 6, 12... or more weeks.
 
So this past week there have been lots of miracles.  There was another baptism in one of our wards this past weekend, and it was just as special as the one two weeks ago, so I won't tell you much about it.  It was really a great experience, because the man who was baptized had several sets of missionaries teach him, so there were quite a few attending his service.
 
The week has been the refiners fire in regards to temperature.  There were one or two days that all we did was try and visit people and get into the shade.  It's hard to talk to people during the summer, because no one is outside during the afternoon.
 
Highlight of this weekend was definitely a surprise.  So at school in Rexburg someone in my family home evening group said she was from Mesa, and this was the same time that I got my mission call.  Well apparently she's in one of the wards that we cover, and she's been out of town, but came to sacrament yesterday which was so exciting.  I didn't know what to say, but it really was the best thing in the world to see her and be able to say hi.
 
That's about all that is new.
 
I had another spill on my bike, completely my own fault.
 
All is well in Lehi
Love Elder Davidson
