This has been the most interesting week so far! In the best way possible! :) So last week was transfers and elder fidler and i were both transferred to the Mesa Vista ward. Its still here in Santa Barbra and we live in our same apartment. We basically just cover the other side of the road down to the coast! The Ward members are great and they are feeding us VERY well! Im so happy to be serving in this wonderful area! We will still be able to go to David's baptism because we have a new investigator that wants to see what baptisms are like!!!!! :) sooo happy! Its truly a amazing experience being able to witness first hand, a change in the way people live there lives. David will always hold a special place in my heart!  

          So yesterday was Stake conference.  Where all the wards in the Santa Barbra Stake come together. Our stake conference was broadcasted from Salt Lake. It was a very special conference to be at! President Henry B. Eyring gave a very special talk on the importance of building Eternal Families! All of you who are members of the church understand the importance of our families here on earth.  We are able to be sealed by proper Priesthood authority in a dedicated house of the lord. The biggest thing is, is that everyone under that covenant or "promise" that we make to the lord can only be fulfilled as we are obeying the commandments and striving to live more christ like lives! 

           Brothers/Sisters/Moms/Dad/ Friends and everyone i know and dont know back home. 

               Everyone ask yourself this question. " What am i doing NOW, to help influence those around me for good?" 

              I Love you all so much! With all my heart, i want to tell you that this life is short. that if we want true happiness try to turn towards our Heavenly Father For help. He knows what we need. 

     I know that our heavenly father hears our prayers. He is there to help guide us. He knows each and everyone of us. I know that the church that Jesus Christ established on the earth when he was here, has been restored in our day to help guide and bless our families. I know that as we live and raise our children in gospel centered homes they will grow up to be meaningful and respectable people. 

 I love you all so much! till next week!
