Hey there everybody!
I hope you all had a great Christmas! I have to say, this was one of the best ones I've ever had. Yeah it did suck to be away from family during the holidays but we had a lot of great experiences and we were with a lot of great people. Christmas eve we ate at a members house. Bro. Kiggins is known for feeding missionaries a ton of food. He just kept piling food on my plate and I was trying to get through it. I had finally finished desert, which was a piece of pie, and I was sitting there and just looking at everyone elses food was making me sick cuz I was sooooo full. So to make a long story short I asked to go to the bathroom and then I puked my guts out haha it sucked. Bro. Kiggins was so happy that he make me throw up. And then after dinner we went and played basketball for like 3 hours. It was super great.
So we have been teaching Steve and Coleen for almost 4 months now. And we have stared to have a lot of progress with Steve. Coleen just doesn't get the "one true church" concept and she said she has been baptized 3 times and doesn't need it again. And also her niece doesn't like us and we think she is the biggest reason why Collen isn't progressing. But Steve on the other hand is doing great. He always is wanting to come to church and 2 nights ago at the end of our lesson he turned to me and said that if he's still feeling good about all of this next sundayhe will go ahead and be Baptized! Coleen didn't hear him say that so we will see how she responds to that when we go over there tomorrow.
A lot of fun and awesome stuff happened this week but its so hard to remember it all. I just wish you all could be here! Transfers are next week and we find out our fate this saturday. Elder Crook is probably going to be transferred out. He's been an awesome companion but I think we are just both ready for a change. 4 1/2 months with the same person is a long time haha. But we will see!
Well thats all I can think about right now so I hope you all have a great New Year!
Love and Miss you all!
Elder Eastin
