Hoping for Success!

This week we had one of the two Christmas ward parties. We had it for the Heritage Trail Ward and we were able to shake hands with all the members that were there and introduce them to Elder Gardner. Later during the week we were able to have another lesson with Stephen Beck and continue to prepare him for the baptism. He is super excited and none of his family will be able to come to the baptism but Sister Becks family will be able to come and Stephens father in law will be the one to baptize him Saturday evening.

This week we drove down to San Antonio again on Friday for a meeting. We had the opportunity to have Elder Villarreal a 70 preside at the meeting and share what was on his mind. He talked a lot about the importance of "hoping for" success. He shared how we need always be hoping for the best and have an upbeat and positive attitude as we serve the Lord. President Polley then addressed us and talked about the importance of setting goals and doing all we can to accomplish the goal that we set personally and as a companionship.

We were able to serve at the storehouse again here in pflugerville. We helped stack a bunch of food cans and also organized the rest of the food that they had. I will be staying in this area for Christmas and also for New Years which will be really fun. Looking forward to another cold and rainy week.
