Well this transfer has started off really well! Elder Schoonmaker and I hit the Standard of Excellence this week. We got a lot done this week and picked up some new investigators, which is exciting.
We are teaching quite a few people, and a lot of them are progressing very well. First we have Kassie. Kassie is a young mother, and she was being taught several months ago but we recently started teaching her again, and she is on date to be baptized on October 12. Then we are teaching the Villa family in the ward. It is a complicated situation with them but the Grandpa is a member, and 5 of his Grandchildren want to be baptized, so we are working on making that happen. If everything goes well we could have 6 baptisms this month.
Sister Hustad was confirmed in church yesterday. Everything went great and she is doing awesome.
So the Church is coming out with a new movie called Meet the Mormons, it will be shown in theaters around the country starting on October 10th, The movie will be a great way of sharing the gospel with our friends in a non threatening way. As missionaries we were instructed to stay away from the places that the movie is being shown, because the movie is not for proselyting, but it is for the members to use to show friends, and to help clear up misconceptions that many people have about members of the church. My Zone gets to see it at a special screening on this Friday, but I encourage everyone to go see it!
That's about it for the week,
Elder Bangerter
Andrew also broke his glasses this week, so it's been an adventure trying to get him a new pair!
