This week has been so spiritually uplifting. The only bad news is that one of our investigators and his less active partner are moving north to York which is less than 20 km out of our area so we passed their information to the sisters in the area and hopefully they will continue to work towards baptism. This week on Thursday we headed back up to Armadale to do exchanges with the Kelmscott Elders. Later that night the other Elders dropped us off to do some contacting and Elder Anitema and I started walking around and talked to a guy from Pakistan and gave him a Book of Mormon. Later when we went back to the meeting spot the other Elders were gone. So we started walking around and continued looking for people to talk to and also for the other Elders. We started talking to a less active in a garage when all of a sudden Elder Anitema sees the car and runs out and whistles at it and from all the way down the block they heard it and turned around. It was so funny. On Friday we had ...

This week has been amazing. So at the start of this week we were walking along and we started talking to an aboriginal guy. We started talking about Jesus Christ and then we invited him to come tour the chapel. He said yes and as we were walking up the hill we gave him a Book of Mormon. In the chapel he said he felt a good vibe and that he wanted to come every Sunday. This week it has really started to heat up. It got to like 35 C the other day. On Friday we had an Awesome day in Kattaning. We picked up two new investigators. One is a 17 year old girl. She and her family are Karen refugees and only she speaks English.

The other investigator is an African lady. It is so cool to see how God prepares each of His children to receive the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. The Lord is really ha...
So today is the start of transfer 3 which means that I am no longer a golden (training) which is sad but exciting. This past Monday we had a Halloween Trunk'r'treat (which is funny because they call the trunk here the boot) as a zone. Our district dressed up as skeletons. Here in Australia Halloween isn't very big at all but this year they actually had trick or treating. Anyway this week as a zone we were doing a pump up week to keep the numbers from dropping at the end of the transfer. the zone leaders would give us a challenge for the day. Things like most pass along cards or recite the First Vision ten times. So at the start of the week we were in Armadale (Kelmscott) and we did a lot of service. We got to cut down some trees in an older man’s yard. Also this week we got to break into a members house because her keys were locked inside. Oh boy, if you ever need someone to break into a house "call the missionaries, they can help you." The rest ...
