Hey, So this weekend was pretty awesome. Brian got baptized. (Number 2 for my mission) and then I got to confirm him Yesterday. Pretty awesome stuff. His friend Jeremy dunked him and then gave him the priesthood. He is prepping for his mish, so this was really cool for him. (The way it works is if you taught the person that got baptized, it counts as one of yours. Even if you didn't do the actual dunking. ) So we had President interviews last week and I was in there for about 20 minutes, I asked him one question, "I've read the missionary library and the BoM and I'm almost done with the New testement, What do I read next?" The he just talked to me about random stuff for 15 minutes. Also, it is the Easter Season and it is the time for JELLY BEANS! the Starburst ones please! I love those. Back to pres interviews, My companion was in there for an hour! When he came out he said that he was talking me up. NO! I don't want leadership. (In this mission you would think that leadership would bring you respect, but no. It does the opposite. As soon as you become District leader, Zone Leader, or AP, everyone hates you. Regardless of who you are.) So if Hudak talked me up.... I might go DL. which would suck. But, I've only been out 5 months, so it's highly unlikely that will happen.
I'm glad you have a stronger testimony of tithing and the Atonement. That's awesome. That testimony can carry you through anything that you let it. I love you and hope that the blessings keep coming. -Elder Williams
