"What just happened?"

Hello all,
 
Well, this week was transfers again and I got a new companion. His name is Elder Dale. But I am staying in the Renton Highlands, which I am actually quite excited about. It is a really good area. We have some great members and many people we can visit and teach. But we do need investigators, some that will actually progress and do what we invite them to do. So we'll keep working.
 
This week we found two new investigators, Heather and Dallin. They are truly people that need the gospel. People say that the Church is kind of like a hospital. For them it could be. This is their third time getting married. They have only been married 3 weeks and are looking for a divorce. We testified about how the gospel could help them and they want to keep learning more. 
 
Also this week was the primary program. It is always fun to see the primary kids get up and sing, especially when we are combined with the Spanish branch. This week we met with Jonah. I told you about him a while ago. It was weird. He is very spiritual and told us that the only mistake in the Book of Mormon is that Jesus isn't a Hebrew name. He also went on and told us about how "father" told him about the 12 degrees of the universe and the meaning of his name and many other things. So we just intently listened and tried to get it back on a gospel subject, but now we know what to do for next time and it gave us a good idea of who to take with us. Really the only thing that could sum it up best is what I asked Elder Ellis when we were walking home: "What just happened?" But Jonah does believe the Church is true and wants to be baptized so I guess you could call him "golden."
 
Well, this week's letter will be short. All in all, it was a good week. All the prayers help. This will be an exciting week though. Elder Dallin H. Oaks from the Quorum of the Twelve apostles and Elder Rasband from the Presidency of the Seventies are coming on Friday. It is going to be an exciting thing for our mission! The Church is true!
