Parker - August 14

Hey Everybody!

First of all, BAPTISM!

Yup, it went through. She got baptized, and she`s super excited to continue in the church. Seriously, it was great. Also, for some reason, this last sunday, a whole bunch of less actives decided to come to church, as well as a family of investigators, who told us when we first met them that it`s very hard to get them to go to church. But they came!

Yeah, it was really good. We also had a president`s conference last week, and my interview with the mission president was really good, helped me out a lot. gave me a new perspective on certain aspects of missionary work. 

Also, my good friend, Elder Arts went home this sunday, cutting his mission a bit short in order to get back to school on time. It was really crazy, especially cuz they had to replace him, and their gonna have to replace his comp in a couple weeks cuz he extended his mission, but the rule is 25 months maximum, so he`s headed home before the end of the transfer too. Basically they`re whitewashing the zone leaders for like the third or fourth time here in the ConcepciĆ³n Zone. There are gonna be a lot of changes this transfer, cuz of a whole bunch of leaders that are ending the mission. I am most likely going to go up and be senior comp, probably district leader too. 

But anywho, it`s all good. Sounds like you guys are having fun at the beach. Wish i could be there, but don`t worry, I`ve learned how to be a little bit patient. I`m basically at the halfway point, one year left is nothin. 

Love you all, hope you guys enjoy the wind and the sand. That`s why I love my "rock," cuz it`s really great to just sit there and enjoy the powerful forces of nature. the wind, the waves, the clouds, the shifting sand, the sunset. Take the time to enjoy the nature around you.

Love
Elder Blaylock
