pretty good week. found out that i have surgery on dec 9th should only be out for 2-3 weeks out. and i have an Mri tomorrow morning. hmmm lets see what happened this week ill start from last night and work my way back. last night we were teaching two new investigators Brennon and Emma, they committed to baptism for the Dec 4th, the only thing standing in there way is there less active father. after the lesson they asked if they could let in there two pit bulls. they did and they were both really nice one male red nose the other a female blue nose. everything was fine we were playing tug of war and they both SNAPPED!!!!!! both the dogs got into like a knock down drag out with each other it was like watching illegal dog fighting. it lasted for about 6 seconds till the mom and the daughter could pull them apart. i just jumped behind the couch and watched :). it was pretty intense. on Sunday elder Johnson and I decided that we would go to singles ward for fast Sunday. after sacrament meeting a young lady came up to us and asked us what she needed to do to be baptized....! i was dumb founded for a sec and then after i got myself together told her that there were lessons that we teach for baptism and that she needed to go to church for three weeks. were actually going to teach her at her boyfriends home and shes making us salmon and salad!!! im excited. we were also invited to a specialty training this week. there was about 20 other missionaries. they did about five trainings and then asked us if we thought that those trainings would be beneficial to the mission. i really liked all of them. one of them had to do with a scripture in 3nephi 5:13 they emphasized the I AM, I WILL and THEY MIGHT. very spiritual training from the assistant and president Olson. this weekend one of our investigators is getting baptized, Swani, hes so excited all he needs is to be interviewed and he's good to go.
