To start, on Monday night we were able to baptize Sheri Kurzynski, and she shared her conversion story with everyone who joined the zoom meeting/call/thing. It was incredible! She told us that when she was in middle school one of her friends gave her a copy of the Book of Mormon, but she never did anything with it. She held onto it for years and never got rid of it. Nearly 40 years later she moves again and as she's moving it comes up again. She decided to start reading it, and as she did she told us that she felt an urging in her spirit to know more about it. So she turned to a friend of hers who was able to teach her and helped her to start living the gospel. And that's when she referred herself to us. We didn't have to do a whole lot other than help her to reach her goal of being baptized June 1st. It was amazing.
On Wednesday we picked up our newly reassigned missionaries, Elder Christensen and Elder Berthold. They have been so amazing, and we've had so much fun together these past few days. Unfortunately, we got transfer calls on Saturday and we're going to be split up. Elder Christensen is going to another ward in the stake, and I'll be going down to the Bradley Lake ward in South Hill. I'll be getting another reassigned missionary named Elder Jensen. It'll definitely be interesting to get doubled in and white wash the area. I'm not really sure what to expect, but it's my last transfer so I'm going to do what I can to make it the best . But that's it for this week! I love you all, and I hope you are all doing great!
