I totally almost forgot it was the Bigelow family reunion. That sounds like a pretty crazy time. But that will be super cool! That is way cool that you will get to go fishing out in the ocean! That will be a blast! And that's cool that Noah will be baptized on the 16th. That's when Ray is going to be baptized. So that will be a cool day all around.
Things are going better this week. We have been doing better at using our time wisely. So I am happy about that. And we have a guy we have been teaching a lot more. So that is good. I don't know. Transfers are in like a week and a half. But it is pretty up in the air. Elder Evans is a good guy.
This new guy Satish is cool. He is kinda crazy. We saw him Saturday night. We just ran into him. He was walking to the grocery story. And we went with him. He kept bringing up the Utah Jazz. And the 1997 NBA playoffs against the Bulls (game 6). And he was so mad about it. And then when we got back to his place he was trying to find the video of how the Bulls cheated. He loves the Jazz. And we left and told him we would be there tomorrow morning to pick him up for church. So we knock on his door at 9:45 for church. And he comes to the door. He says, "I just woke up and give me 5 min. and I will be ready." So we wait for him. And he comes out carrying his trash and he walks it down and throws it away and then is ready to go. It was funny. We were with the elder quorum president to pick him up. And he is a big hunter and has his big truck.
He came to church and sacrament meeting was kinda long for him I think. But there were some good testimonies and I think they resonated with him. I gave him my I pad and he read the lesson and followed along. So it kinda worked out. And then Elders quorum was really good. We talked about choices and President Monson's talk about choices and he really connected with that. He was all there and he really liked that. And he saw how in his life he didn't have any direction. So that is why it didn't matter what he choose. And I think he liked church. There were some people that came up and talked with him. And we're really excited to see him here. And it was great! He is working on getting in with some good group of friends. And so I think the happiness of all the families stood out with him. He has a long way to go. But if he takes it seriously. I feel like he can be working and making it again in like 3 months. But he makes us laugh.
Love, Elder Bigelow
