So......Ha ha ha!...... I am great! Sorry about yesterday! We did not write 'cuz we got to go to the temple this week and the temple is closed on Mondays so we had pday today. But, yea, I am doing super great! And I'm hoping that was an exaggeration about Taylor's room....Ha ha ha ha!
The temple was great! It was super special! We got there and we went through the session and everything and it was super good and then when we left, we had been doing a fast with L's husband because he set a date for his baptism and he needs to get Sundays off. He didn't think that they were going to give them to him, especially because he is new where he is working, so we taught him about the fast and he was super excited. It was perfect cuz we were going to the temple today! But anyway, so after the temple we were going to go to lunch as a zone so we had to end our fast. So I just went and asked the worker at the front desk and he said, "Oh, of course, come with me." And he just showed us to this door that led to a staircase and just said, "Go on up!" So we went up and it was like this meeting room way up in the temple! It was super cool! So the three of us got to kneel up there and end our fast! It was super cool!!! Then we went to the distribution center across the street and guess who was there!!! A!!! E's mom! she is the best!!! I love her so much! She said to say hi to you mom! She sure does love you! You will definitely have to meet her someday. And then we all went to Taco Bell for lunch and everybody loved that! That Taco Bell is so fancy! And... yes...I said "FANCY"! The soda fountain is a touch-screen!!! Like a straight up touch phone touch screen with a menu of what drink you want and stuff! It is so nuts! WHAT?!?!?! alright, well in my opinion mom, THAT is a sign of the times! hahahaha that is insane!
Oh yeah, so about Christmas. No, honestly. I am fine. Don't worry about sending me anything.You don't have to send a package or anything. Elder M, and I have been talking about how we are going to make Christmas here! Ha ha ha ha! So don't worry. You can save it for the kids Christmas. And for sure if you put some in my account I will have fun for Christmas bringing stuff home. Ha ha ha!
So anyway, about our new branch!!!! So this Sunday we had a meeting with the Bishop and we pitched our idea and we showed him the success we are having and he loved it! Also that night we had our stake correlation meeting with the Stake Presidency and we pitched it to them and they absolutely loved it! They are so excited! And it is going to work so well because the plan we have made we made with the growth in the future in mind instead of the plans they had before just to facilitate the current members and growth within the next six months. The way we have it planned out, it could easily become it's own ward really soon and easily it's own stake in the future also! It is so awesome! But so anyway, the Stake President has an interview with the Bishop this week and they are going to talk about it all and then in two weeks the Stake President has a meeting with the Area 70 and they are going to talk about it and everything. Then in three weeks we have a "noche de hermanamiento" it's like a huge family night thing with everybody in the area planned. It is where the whole Stake Presidency is going to come with us and visit less active members for an hour before and then they are going to give the message in the meeting. And..... we are going to have the meeting in the P. Family's house! The family we just baptized! I am SOOOOO excited and SOOOO happy!!!! But yeah, I am kind of getting scared though that it is going to be like every other area and that it will all happen right after I leave. I have really been thinking about that lately. It really is kinda scaring me.
As for Thanksgiving I am pretty sure that we are going to be MORE than set. We have concilio that week! Ha ha ha ha! THANKSGIVING DINNER FROM HERMANA WATTS BABY!!!!!!
I love you mom! Thank you for everything! You are the best! Alright, well I best be off. I love you so much! Thank you for everything! I can't wait to hear from ya next week! I'll let ya know how everythings going next week here in the area and in the zone. I love you all so much! HAVE A GOOD WEEK!!!!
Con amor,
Elder Welch
