Apache Junction

I'm doing well and ready for another transfer.  I got news Saturday night that I'll be going to a new area out in Apache Junction! I'm looking forward to it.  My new companion is Elder Robinson, and oddly enough he served in the same area that I will be leaving.

As for this area I will miss it very much.  It hasn't been the best area in terms of lessons with investigators, but I have been so blessed to watch all these wonderful families get along in their every day lives.  It was a bitter-sweet experience as I was asked to give the opening prayer this past Sunday.  Following Bro.Y announced that I would be leaving.  I am sad that I have to leave this wonderful ward, and all those we have worked with.  On the other hand I am very satisfied to know that I will always remember the friends I have made here.

Our training by Elder Aidukaitis from the Quorum of the Seventy was really amazing.  All the missionaries shared similar experiences as we went over our notes.  Elder A (He is the first on the list of Seventies) had the great skill of looking at you straight in the eye.  On several occasions I received much needed council, as he looked right at me.

The music number went very well.  I learned alot about what I can do if I just practice.  The Sisters were a little out of practice, and as  Elder Ellsworth put it "I played better than they sang".  That said I was more worried about just getting through the piece.  They will probably never ask me to play a piece again, but if they do I know I can do it.

On a fun note Elder Ellsworth and I got the "How to train your Dragon" soundtrack.  When we opened the package, we cheered, and immediately put it into the CD player.  Also last Monday we had an activity at the Stake Center.  There is a flat screen in the high council room, so we had ice cream and watched Mormon Messages.  It was pretty fun, besides the fact that the Wifi was really slow.

There isn't much else to report.

Love one another is the word,
Elder Will Davidson
