Week 100

Tuesday: Well as my past emails go, transfer day is always crazy! We pretty much got a bike from every zone and picked up a car in Draper so we spent all day grabbing bikes. At night we played the last softball game for the year with Mountain View with Parley. Parley was having a blast at softball. Parley was playing catcher and I threw someone out from way out in the outfield and hit Parley square in the mitt to the point where he didn't need to move his glove and he went crazy and talked about it all week haha!

Wednesday: We had our multi district meeting in the morning and it was focused all on receiving personal revelation. It was a good meeting but there was a lot that we had to talk about and not enough time to do so. We also had to include our expectations meeting in with it. Our expectation for the transfer was basically to receive personal revelation. We had a mini MLC push meeting to get us on track to start the transfer. It still blows my mind that Elder Henley and Rodriguez are companions again and now as APs. At night we had dinner with Parley and some members from the ward. It was cool to see how Parley has completely change with the new ward members as friends.

Thursday: We had a lot of transfer check list things to do in before dinner and after dinner I did a baptismal interview for Michael Shneemann. He is one of the coolest 9 years olds I've interviewed. He played baseball just like me and we connected really well.

Friday: We met with all the district leaders and set expectations with them. Afterwards we met with all the missionary companionships that are whitewashing. We played spikeball at night with the rose canyon ward and unfortunately Parley wasn't able to make it!

Saturday: Well we visited a couple baptismal services throughout Riverton and Herriman and then started preparing for Parleys baptism. It was honestly a miracle with Parley. He has talked about getting baptized for 6 months and finally made the choice! It was a spiritual service and we were glad to be apart of it.

Sunday: We went to a ward council in the morning. We went to the mountain view ward to confirm Parley a member of the church. Then went to the Butterfield canyon ward afterwards. We met with Luis who was recently baptized and he is doing great and will be getting the priesthood next week. 
 
Have an awesome week!
 
Love,
Elder Aaron Ashby
