| At the MTC, about a year into the mission, on my last transfer |
Hey everyone! Boy, it has been a rough week! We've biked most of the
week just to get the miles back that we've lost. So that's been hard. Honestly,
I like it. I think it is a great work out! 
I've always liked
riding bikes, however, after Sunday, Elder Leavitt gave up and didn't want to
go biking again. I don't think he liked it. But we got our miles back, so we
can go to places and such. So ya, we also got a new apartment. They moved us
out of our old one, and this new one is really nice. It’s all refurbished and
such. So ya. Anyway, here is the week.

We went shopping for a couple of items. Then we did some emailing and hung out with the zone at the stake center. Then we went with Spanish and stayed with them while they did some errands. After, we then went and played some ultimate Frisbee. It was great for the 30 minutes we had to play before we needed to be back in Everson. We had dinner with the Pasketts and a lesson with the Mergels. We taught Alyvia about the temples and eternal marriage. After, we had the same lesson with Kali, another investigator we have, and she accepted a baptism date of August 4th!!
Tuesday
We did a lot of work. We started biking in the afternoon in Sumas. We also had a lesson with the Mullers in the afternoon. We had a discussion about being in the world but not of the world. I feel like it helped them a lot. Sister Muller’s daughter, Heather, kind of has that personality. She's easing away from the gospel, little by little. So, I hope it worked.
Wednesday
We had district meeting. Elder Winget talked about helping the people we teach to understand the Book of Mormon more clearly. After that, we went and had our lesson/interview for baptism with Alyvia. We taught her about learning and serving in the church. After we came home, we did our studies, and then we went to work. Nothing else really happened that day.
Thursday
We had interviews in the morning. After, we picked up Sonic for lunch and went home to do comp study. Then we took the bikes and the car and drove up to Sumas again and did some work up there on the bikes. Later, we came home, had dinner, and worked on the bikes close by. I also did My Plan that day before we went to Sumas.
Friday
We did weekly planning. We did some work in the morning and evening and some service for a former investigator in the ward. She wanted some weeding done at her home. We had dinner with the Barrons that night.
Saturday
We had Alyvia's baptism, and it went really well. We also finished weekly planning, and we moved everything from our old apartment to the new one.

Sunday
Alyvia got confirmed, and we had a good time at church. Brother Boyd, from the Laurel Ward, spoke and so did Brother Mason. After church, we were able to do some work in Sumas in the car, no bikes. We had dinner with the St. Roses and the Schindlers. It was great.
Well that's my week. I know what you’re thinking. All this work…any new investigators? Sadly no. We haven't had any this whole transfer. So, I would ask please pray for us that we find some. Love you all, and I'll see you real soon.
