Week 21: Mom email

I am staying warm. I have really warm thermal tops and bottoms I wear designed for "extreme cold" and they have been really nice. I've been okay just wearing them. It's been nice!

Welp! I'm leaving yelm! Port Townsend should be a lot different than Yelm. One of the McKenna elders is coming up there with me as well! We are going to be in a quadpanionship, meaning 4 elders in one ward. It's pretty awesome. It is going to be a lot of fun. One of the others that I am going with trained one of my MTC companions and is suppose to be really cool. It should be a good transfer.

One of the baptisms on date for December is Nicky Burnett. He is 9 years old with slight autism. He is super smart. It's amazing. His parents just barely came back into activity from not coming for 4 years. It's been great teaching them. The parents are really cool people as well. The other one is Dakota Bear. He is a priest age kid whose dad was baptized just a few years ago. He just showed up to church a few weeks ago and last week he came up to us and asked if he could be baptized! It was neat. We are gonna start teaching him soon.

If you look closely at the picture of the house with lights in the group email, you can see the neighbor's house. It says "Ditoo" on their wall haha. It is a lot better tracting during Christmas than Halloween that's for sure haha. It is nice having everything lit up plus everyone is just in a better mood. I think it's because of all the sweets everyone's eating haha.

The cards did get here! And just in time. One of my new companions is a magic player as well! Thank you so much!

I am doing my best to get packed. I will leave on Wednesday. Nicky really wants me to baptize him so I am going to see if I can get permission to come back for it. Matt is still doing good. He came to the Christmas concert. We go over to his house every Tuesday!

Love
Nathan
