Hey,

This last week went really great we had a wonderful Sabbath day yesterday I would guess mainly because the people baptized were confirmed this Sunday their were six of them. Yesterday was really interesting we had six confirmations and that took up most of the first hour of church then in priesthood we had four people receive the Priesthood and three more receive the Melchizedek Priesthood and then two more people were set apart for their callings. So yesterday we were super busy getting all of those ordinances done so it was really great just to see the priesthood in action yesterday. Also we had a most powerful baptism their is that family of Christophe, Claire, and Claudia. Christophe founded the church because of Mitt Romney and the spirit guiding him and he is a farm businessman. Claire was pretty hard but now she knows the church is true she has worked for Parliament and now owns her own lawyer business so they are a great family and as they were being baptized you could really feel a wonderful spirit about them and they are going to bring a huge impact on the church here in Rwanda. So yesterday was really great plus we had a women from Uganda named Tracy she is a member and she brought a few of her family members to church which was awesome. Yesterday went really great we felt a wonderful spirit about all of those being baptized and those who were confirmed. The ones who were confirmed are ready to serve missions and to help they all received callings as Branch missionaries at least the male ones so that was awesome. Well this week is transfer week and I will find out if I stay in this area or not I guess it is the last transfer sad, but wherever I go I will work to the best I can and work as hard as I can. Yeah we are teaching a few more people now hopefully we will have some great baptisms this next transfer and we hope that we get recognized by the government so we can go and find more of the elect. Next week we could have a few baptisms with Joseph and Martin they are friends of Isaac and are really great people they have been coming and one even lost his job so now he can be a church member. Actually that is pretty sad, but he is excited and really has a strong desire to follow Christ. This week has been great and I am looking forward to many more great weeks. I love this gospel I know it is true and I know that priesthood truly has been restored on the Earth and all of the principles and doctrines and what a blessing it is to know that in these time. Well It was a great week and I am looking forward to another great week.

  It is great to hear everyone is doing so well and having a great time I am blessed to have such a wonderful family. Have a great week love you all
