Guess where I am now????

Transfer calls were Sunday night and...(drumroll)...Elder Cranford and I are staying together in this area for at least six more weeks. Pretty good eh? I was excited because we have been finding new investigators like crazy lately! We also have a lot of work to do with ones we have found in the past. I just love keeping busy and I love my ward here! The members are really willing to help and have emphasized the importance of missionary work in the last few meetings. The bishop has actually asked that me and Elder Cranford give a lesson on missionary work to the whole ward in gospel doctrine class here in a few weeks. We´ll see how that goes! Unfortunately, we haven´t been able to meet with the Peruvian family this week. We have called them quite a few times but they are busy dealing with residency issues. I hope things start to pick up. We met with Sonia this week the day before her birthday. Truthfully, it didn´t go too well. We tried to watch the restoration movie but her tv didn´t work and her computer didn´t have volume. It was a little bit of a bummer. She had us stay to eat with her though and she really enjoyed our company. She actually told me that she is moving to Idaho where her family lives in about a year. I couldn´t help but think that would be perfect because there is no way you are going to escape the church in Idaho! :) I guess we need to worry about baptizing her first. I think Elder Cranford and I have found something good though. As you know, we teach english classes every Saturday evening and afterwards we share a small spiritual thought. This last Saturday we did something a little different and shared the whole first lesson which is the restoration. It went really well and everybody filed out after we had finished. Elder Cranford was having a conversation with a man that was thanking him for all his help. After everybody had left I saw a family that had just left in the door. They told me they wanted us to come over this week! I was so excited. They have a boy that is about 12 that loves me for some reason. I think its because I´m kind of goofy and he gets a kick out of it. I´m so excited to go over to their house! I hope they are really interested. I would love to see a whole family baptized. Well thats my report for the week. Time is flying and I´m loving my mission. This church is true. There is no possible way I could doubt it. I love you all.Elder Langston
