You take care alrighty?

So first things first, transfers are this week and heres whats going down, Elder Hess is a goner, he gone. But that is really sad, thats what the email title is because he always said that! haha But hes gone which means I'm with Elder Felipe for a few days because his companion Elder Sandstrom left as well so Im a zone leader for a day, I got to do transfer calls last night which was pretty fun, being a zone leader is stressful! haha and I don't even have all the responsibility! haha but anywho, back to transfers, I will be...............staying in ASL North and my new companion will be Elder Camillo Gois!!! I'm so pumped, Elder Madsen will almost definitely going ASL South with Elder Bird to be trained. But its gonna be a great transfer! Super stoked to get to work with Elder Gois.

also Brady is back on date, had a lesson with him about the Atonement where we showed him the Bible videos of the Atonement, holy cow those videos are the bomb! I need to get them all because we don't have all of them, but yeah Brady for Baptism!! haha just trying to get him to live Word of Wisdom, its been tough but we are working on it! Also, George is very accepting but he never shows up to church so we are working with him still. Andre cancelled on us when we were halfway to his house, its like 2 hours away, that wasn't fun but then we went tracting so its all good i guess.

Lets see...funny stories or anything like that? Nothing much haha, really just a slow week, i got to go to the space needle and ride a ferry into Seattle at night..it was crazy. I'll actually tell that story, so first we had a dinner appointment with a member waaaaay out in Port Orchard, its actually not that far but its across the sound so we took a ferry from Edmonds to Kingston and drive to Port Orchard and when we show up the mom goes, Oh crap! I totally forgot!! so we said ok we will go tracting and come back a little later she still wanted us to eat with them, but we do that come back and we are eating when I ask the wife hey do you know when the last ferry is? she doesn't but she asks her husband who looks it up and sees 8:30, and at that point it was 8....and the ferry is about 30 minutes away.....Oh crap!!! We shovel down the rest of our food, teach a lesson on the book of mormon, throw on our shoes and then sprint out basically haha. We go to the closest ferry which is in Bremerton, so we drive there and somehow we got there like 10 minutes early, it was crazy, but we got there on time and rode the Bremerton-Seattle ferry at night time, and oh boy is Seattle pretty at night, especially riding in on a ferry, it was awesome!!! 

Oh and mom and dad the family is the Schafer family, the dad Adam says he knows you, hes awesome!

But miracles for this week! The Youngs! We (Elder Felipe and I) had dinner with the Knox's the branch president and the Young's and they are the bomb! Elder Felipe says I need to baptize them haha, me and Elder Gois will go visit again this week but they are getting so prepared right now! We are so excited to teach them!

Today I studied Jacob chapter 5, which is tough, I am going to read it again but Jacob chapter 6 and 7 are bomb! they are so awesome! Jacob shares his testimony and it is so powerful! I know that the Book of Mormon was written by prophets of God! I love you all so much!
