What a swag week - 9/22/14

First off, This week has just been way swag. I got the packages from you mom, and those M and Ms have SO MUCH SUGAR! Candy here is totally not the same. I ate like half a bag and I felt full.....SO AWESOME!

Many a baptism interview were done yesterday for the other branch, and we shall be getting Andry and Tefy their baptism interviews this Tuesday. It is pretty freakin' exciting. We found out that Rosy might actually be married to a guy and we were like "WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN?§ What the garglemesh?§" So we are going to talk to her more about it on Tuesday to see if she really is married, and what not because if she is then we will need to wait so that she can be Vita soratra (Legally married)

On Wednesday we had an awesome CEP meeting or our (Priesthood executive meeting) and talked about trying to find more potential melk. priesthood holders. We gave the example that if you baptize a hundred women, it’s awesome because we are having people make covenants, but if we still have only 14 active melk. Priesthood holders...Then did we really grow? We encouraged the people in the meeting to start focusing on finding more potential melk. Priesthood holders, and to try to help us find families to teach. We also set a goal for us to try to have 40 fully active tithe paying melk. Priesthood holders by next year. 

 

Sorry, accidentally did the "Send button."

Elder Miller and I are doing a lot of searching in our program, and trying to find ways that we can combine people to teach so that we can find some more Families. We have SO MUCH of Fianarantsoa that has not even been touched, and we know that there are families waiting for the gospel. It’s pretty exciting and I am very very grateful for the time that I have to serve here.

This next week is going to be pretty awesome with the zone leaders coming this Wednesday, and then we should be getting transfer news on Sunday. SO EXCITING! I still don't know if I am staying or getting transfererd. I could see both happening depending on the will of President Adams in trying to split out area or not. So we will just keep pushing on in the Lord's work :)

Love you all, and I will report next week

Am-pitiavana
