This week was super good. That is crazy to hear that everything worked out the way it did. This has been a crazy few months for you hasn't it? It seems like everything has changed recently.
No sadly President Trump did not make it up to Corpus Christi which was a little disappointing. It's alright though, hopefully I will get to see the wall be built sometime soon hahaha.
Yeah transfers are next week. We had interviews with President Torres and he said he isn't sure where he wants to put me yet. I hope that's a good thing...... Regardless we will get the call next week and I will find out if I'm staying in Corpus for 6 months or if I move on somewhere else.
That brings me to the big news this week, we had a baptism! So the girl we've been working with, Paige, decided to get baptized on Saturday. It was so cool. She truly was a miracle from the Lord. She is going to college in Philadelphia but she is originally from here in Corpus and so for the past month she has been visiting home for winter break and she wanted to meet with missionaries while she was here. So we have been meeting with her and she decided she wanted to be baptized! She is so awesome, she just took the leap of faith. Elder Huff baptized her on Saturday evening and the baptismal service was super cool. There were a whole bunch of members there from the ward, it was awesome. Then yesterday in Church I got to confirm her, it was so cool. (It was the second time I had confirmed someone so it was pretty cool).
Other than that big news not much is going on. Now that Paige has been baptized so much stress is just gone. It feels so nice. I don't know, I have really come to like it here in Corpus on the Flour Bluff. The members are super awesome and everything is just going so great.
Yeah sometimes those Isaiah chapters are hard to understand. Something President Torres has told us to help us understand Isaiah is to remember that everything he is writing about has a double meaning. It is foretelling something that is happening in that time and it is also foretelling what will happen in our time. He is big on his dualistic prophecies.
Favorite scripture or hymn? Probably a favorite Hymn would have to be How Firm a Foundation. I just love the message in that Hymn and what it is talking about.
Good to hear that all has gone well with Cliff's funeral, (Elder Goodbaudy's Great Uncle passed away on January 5th) sounds like it should be really cool. That is about it for this week. Have a great week!
Love, Elder Goodbaudy
