Baptismal Date in Kerava

So um, yeah last week, I had Elder Baccile write because Iwas writting a letter by hand and he had a couple of seconds. We had emailed at different times because of the wallet problem. And yeah. Elder Struthers was cool, but I didnt really get to meet him that much and get to know him. I'm glad you were able to attend Elder Slades homecoming. He is kind of quiet.

Um....yeah.... so this past week we had some good success. We had a really good teach with "S", our 18 yr old investigator. He has been pretty much ready. He got his answer/noticed it this time, and so now he is ready completely. He is going to be baptized on the 12th of February, and so both Baccile and I will be here. I'm pretty excited. Our other investigators have been sick or not really desirous to meet with us.... so that is the only news. .... but its like the best news. "S" got his answer by praying after an argument with his friend over the church. What I understood happened was that he had an argument, and then went and studied the material on how to get an answer, wrote down some notes, and then stopped for a second and was like.... hmm, it feels good. Then he prayed and asked about it, and he still felt really good. He started to laugh and was like (in his words) "yeah, oh my, Yeah!! whahooo!" So now we just need to review the lessons and get him in the water on the 12th. Also today we went down to Helsinki and played some basketball with "S" and his friend and some other missionaries in the area. It was fun but took a lot of time and so it was the only thing we did besides chores today.

Thanks for the pea soup heads up and no Elder Empey hasn't told me anything about the girl in Savonlinna that was investigating when I was there. She is probably investigating a lot or not at all. I'll have to ask him again. Didn't you send a small package lately..... probably to Savonlinna ? or is that still in the works? lol ...like always.

Hmmm, a funny story this week? I don't think that anything happened this week that was funny, but there is something in the basement that is funny. We have a storage center in the basement and it is so full we can't get to anything. Missionaries have just Iit will probably take an hour or so. but at least its a productive thing to do. It's a real mess. I'll send a picture next week or when we finally get it done. How are things at home? Love Trev
