We met a lady who spoke Arabic, so we got her a Book of Mormon in Arabic! Look how cool it is! Hey heyyyyyyyyyyy, This week was good! Mariela and Chris left us to go to Mexicali (they said they would bring me back Mexican candy so keep your fingers crossed!) Walter is still cool, the elders kept going over to his house so we just talked to him via Facebook :/ We met a lady named grandma P, we took her on a walk and taught her the Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, we met her daughter who basically told us we weren't welcomed back. She said "Look you little watch towers" WATCH TOWERS Anyway, so sad :( Sister Evans came with us, Sister Evans is seriously the best human I have ever met in my life, she is so Christ like, I wanna be like her one day. love lovelove I cut Destiny and Corey's son Logan's hair, and he looked pretty fresh if I do say so myself.

CHRIS IS BAPTIZED HELLOHELLO! Goooooooooood week! I got my new companion Sister Meek, I LOVE her, literally since shes been here its been miracle after miracle. SISTER GANUS AKA MY HEART Speaking of miracles, Chris got baptized! MY DUDE! Literally him and Mariela are my heart. It has been the most amazing 3 transfers (4 and a half months) to see them both grow in the gospel. more evidence to me that this is Christs true church because there is no way that these peoples lives could change the way they did if it wasnt. The baptism was beautiful. Walter came to support them (love him) Sister Nez had her 20th birthday, so Sister Meek and I, being good STLs , threw her a lil party Brother Chang printed out to programs and he wrote "baptism of Walter This is Sister Batty from Palmetto, she literally pullled over because she saw us walking I LOVE HER SO MUCH disappointment :/  Walter, Sister Meek, stupid coconut :/ Hermana Johnson, shes s...

HELLO HELLLLLO! WA IS BAPTIZEDDDDDDDDD FIRST THINGS FIRST WA IS BAPTIZED! LITERALLY LOVE WA! So many people came. It was really good to see the love everyone has for him. We got him scriptures, but it had someone's name on it, so we just taped a piece of paper over it with his name lolololol. But he's baptized and confirmed! LOVE HIM. We will hopefully be getting him to the temple in the next week! (Also when we cleaned the baptismal font, Sister Vance head dived in and gave herself a concussion) Ch had his baptismal interview , he's officially getting baptized next Saturday! PUMPED!!!  Also its transfer week, and GUESS WHAT?! I'M STAYING IN CITY CREEK! On Tuesday, I had a strong feeling to call President Dixon and tell him that I needed to stay, but I didn't.  He called us Wednesday morning and said "Can I talk to Sister Wingate in private?" You know I pooped my pants. He told me he has a strong feeling my work was not done ...
