I'm way honored to be here!

Alex Grutter was baptized on Sunday June 14th. Way beautiful... Elder Farnsworth and I were the witnesses and that was a really neat experience for me. It was such a beautiful thing to see him in white and standing in the water, I will never forget it. Once he came out of the water he gave Brother martin a long hug, and I could hear them both sniffing. Which of course made me an emotional guy to start getting teary eyed. It was really just a beautiful experiance and I am honored that I could take a little part in it. Such a blessing. I didn't even really do anything, but none the less it was beautiful and I am glad that I could be here for a part of it. He changed his life for something amazing, mega cool!
Things are going really well, I can tell that I am growing in so many ways. I can now see why they say the mission prepares you for marriage. My companion and I get along, but I have to execise patience a lot lately. I'm grateful to be out here, I love it. Way awsome expericane.
