This last week was transfers. I got to stay my area for a 2nd transfer and am still companions with Elder Ely. But Elder Petty has been moved to my old area in South Salt Lake, which is pretty cool. AND Elder Nogueira got transferred here to Murray and we are companions AGAIN! For a 2nd time. Only had a one transfer break, and then the Lord couldn't keep us apart lol. AND another crazy thing is I am companions with Elder Wright AGAIN! FOR A 3RD TIME. That is unheard of. And I am companions with this spanish Elder, Elder Julian. Who we found out we were actually in the same ward for freshman year at BYU and lived on the same floor lol. And he is from Spokane.

| Last transfers companionship (Me, Elder Ely and Elder Petty) |
This is probably confusing. But basically I am companions with Elder Ely and Elder Nogueira in the Murray (South Salt Lake) area. Then I am companions with Elder Wright and Elder Julian when we do exchanges and trainings with the mission as a whole.

| Me, James and Oz from when he got baptized |
Here are some other things that happened:
 |
| Basketball with some Japanese exchange students |
- Did an exchange with the Elders in the Swahili area and met a family of five and they all chose to follow Jesus Christ and be baptized together! Pretty cool miracle...even with a language barrier and the help of google translate
- A dog peed on my hand
- I almost got pooped on by a bird. It flew right past my face and landed an inch from my foot
- Had interviews with President Prier
Song of the Week:
Scripture of the Week:
- Matthew 25:1-13 (New Testament). This parable given in this chapter is so good. I will be studying it A LOT this transfer and would love to hear your insights on it.
1 aThen shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten bvirgins, which took their clamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:
4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all aslumbered and bslept.
6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the abridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.
7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their alamps.
8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps aare gone out.
9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.
10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were aready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was bshut.
11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
12 But he answered and said, aVerily I say unto you, I bknowyou not.
13 aWatch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.
Have a great week,
Elder Ditto
