Transfers!

Beaumont Area
My new area is small compared to all my other areas. It is in Downtown Beaumont and yeah its kind of a poorer of a area. the people are really great and nice and love to listen to the message we have to share. Beaumont is a great place to teach the gospel because the people are ready but not to live in it at least were I am at. I loved the ward, they seem really nice, it is a branch so it is really small, less than 60 people were there, yeah it is small, the church use to be a bank awhile back. know it kind of looks like a church. we have been biking somewhat, A member has been coming out with us a lot so we have not used them that much but he is leaving to California for three weeks than to Bulgaria for three weeks, so we probably will be on our bikes more.

New Investigators
We have about six or more investigators that we are teaching, two of them are getting baptized in the next two weeks. I will tell you about the amazing experience we had the day. we taught a family about faith and had them pray for us that we would find someone to teach and to baptize. then we went out to tract a street. the first door we came to I knew that this was the one. we knocked on the door and a big white dude answered the door, we told who we were and he let us in and talked to him more, Mr. Twindle is catholic, he is retiring and is moving down to mexico in a month. we came back and taught him about prophets and he said that he was praying were he needed to go and then we knocked on the door. It was cool to see how Heavenly Father answers prayers. there are going to be great things that are going to happen in this area.
