Last Transfer - Staying in Arima :)

This week was good, busy as usual on a mission. We had some great success this week taking members out teaching with us. We try to involve them as much as possible to fellowship our investigators, but it can be a struggle. On Wednesday we were blessed to have a brother from the ward (his sister is the one on a mission in Ogden) walk around his area with us to some appointments and he helped us tract to meet new investigators as well. He is a great missionary! To answer you question about teaching males, we try to get members with us, but most often it isn't a problem to teach them if we can't get anyone with us. In order to teach them inside we have to have a third female with us, but in this mission we most often just teach people outside on the side of the road or on their front porch. As long as we are out in plain view of others we are fine to teach them alone. 

This Saturday we were at the baptism of two of the Elder's investigators and our whole zone was present. It was in the evening of the day we were all waiting for transfer calls, and none of us had heard anything yet. Of course, right as the baptism started our phones started ringing one by one. Haha! Luckily the second one who's phone rang answered it and took the call outside to let them know that we were all there and would call back after the baptism. Them baptism was very nice, as all baptisms are, and afterward we called back the APs (assistants to the president). We all just passed the one phone around to hear what our assignments were. Almost everyone in our zone is staying next transfer, all except one elder who was in our branch in a trio. He will be going to St. Lucia. As for Sister Feltis and I, we will be staying in Arima so here is where I will spend the rest of my mission, which is nice. I was hoping not to have to go to a new area my last transfer. 

I love you all! 
Sister Bratt
