The moment that definitely stood out the most this week was going to the temple last saturday with a few of our recent converts for baptisms for the dead. Three of them (Adam, Niloofar and Fariba if I mentioned them before) were able to do work for their families and the spirit was definitely extremely strong.
Collins is doing fantastically and is definitely ready for his baptism on Saturday! We've been through all of the lessons with him, even one over the phone at one point, but everything is all set up!
Frezghi and Moses are both doing well and they're both off of school this next week so we hope that we'll be able to meet with them at least once or twice (we plan on seeing Moses today at Eddy's/Balansama's place)
I officially finished off my second journal while on my mission and started my third... I think I'll definitely have to purchase a fourth one somewhere along the way.
I also found a candy that had the warning "Excessive consumption may cause laxative effects". I gave the bag of said candy to one of our elders, who apparently missed the warning, even though I told him multiple times about it. Oops.
We had root beer floats to celebrate my 9-month mark! A ward member tracked down some root beer and Reese's for us (neither of which are readily available here and Sweden) and I'll admit that root beer float tasted heavenly.
Have a good week!
Love,
Allie
