Oi vey!
This transfer is going by so quickly. I can't believe that it is already over and I'm about to start my 12th transfer. Crazy.
Everything is going well, I had some rather interesting experiences with people from different religions. I met some of my first Church of Christ Congregationalists. They were some of the nicest people that I've had the pleasure to meet whilst I have been on my mission (second only to the Catholic priests that I have met while on my mission). They had amazing questions and it seemed that we both were having a hard time figuring out why one wasn't the other. (They believe in Joseph Smith, the Book of Mormon, everything except modern day revelation... but we couldn't figure out why though. It was fun to try and figure it out though)
Also I have a firm testimony of the Book of Mormon and Satan's desperate attempts to disprove the validity of the Book of Mormon. There is something that needs to happen in order for someone to truly take the book into consideration is to believe that reading it will not turn you into a cult. (I tried in vain to explain the definition of a cult was not to read a certain book, but I gave up in the end... some people just don't listen to the spirit or the Webster dictionary) It was fun trying to help people, albeit it's hard to help them when they resort to speaking in gibberish whenever you are testifying about the Savior... I'm going to have to go back and study Corinthians more fully soon.
Thanks so much for everything that you do! I'm excited to see what happens next. (even if it means that some of my best friends on the mission are leaving on Wednesday :(... so sad... except maybe my new friends will be coming to the mission as well)
