Meeting with Elder Christensen, and our second to last call!!!!!!!

-

 This week Luke had the awesome opportunity of meeting with Elder Christensen of  the Area Presidency.  Sadly he was supposed to fly in and meet in person but his flight was canceled because of weather.  He told Luke he was going to try to meet him in person before Luke leaves.  The meeting was with President and Sister Barlow and the two APs.  I think it was a meeting checking in with the new mission president and seeing how things were going.  Sister Christensen urged Luke and Elder Suarez to promise to read the Book of Mormon everyday for the first year after they get off their missions.


This was a cute picture drawn from a little 9 year old girl named Nicole that has been coming back to church thanks to the Ward Mission Leader picking her up.

Luke was excited that they had all 6 converts at church on Sunday!  

The zone conferences started and so Luke had to give his LAST TESTIMONY (well the first of the lasts, he will be bearing it at each zone conference this week.)  Things are getting real!

Luke came across this drunk guy that had a Bulldogs hat on!!!!  So random!  Go Georgia!!!

 Luke's good friend Elder Rodriguez finished his mission and left this week!  This is the Elder that is friends with our neighbors up the street, the Wasiks!  And then Luke got to welcome 5 new missionaries!  So fun to be in this position right now to say goodbye's and to welcome the new ones!  Next week is going to be a tear-filled one as he has to say goodbye to his beloved mission president and his sweet wife!   One funny thing happened while they were at the airport.  There was a transgender man there in a dress.  As they walked by President Reber said to Luke and his companion "Nice dress!"  ha ha ha, Luke got a kick out of that! :)  Luke is loving his new companion Elder Suarez.  He is so kind and loving toward people and a great guy.  He is from Paraguay so he has a soft spot in my heart because my brother Tyler served in Paraguay!   That's about it from the week.  Busy busy but doing great!
