So guess what I'm doing this transfer.........training. Not training any missionary though, I am training the first missionary to come out of the country of Croatia. He is 6'5'' and they say that he speaks good English but no one really knows. I will get him sometime tomorrow. This is really crazy. I've already trained one missionary from Kenya, had a companion from Hong Kong and now one from Croatia. I think that I can say at this point that I served a foreign mission. So hopefully I'll be able to show him a good time in America. Elder Bottorff is going to be a zone leader in the new mission. That means that out of the group that I came out with. Three of us will be left after the mission splits. Jackson is going to the new mission, which is really really sad. The mission will split July 1st so today is the last transfer day that we will be together as one. It is weird to think that I only have three transfers left. When I am done training I will only have one left. That is even crazier. It is really going to be over before I know it. I was able to confirm someone yesterday for the first time on my mission. A 10 year old girl we have been working with in the Acacia Park ward was baptized Saturday and asked me to confirm her. That was really special. I'll let you know more about my companion when he comes. Hopefully he plays bastketball ha ha. Love you guys!
