Week 32: Work hard, play hard

Honestly it has been such a wonderful week but I cant remember all of it. I feel like this week was way hot in Phuket and I was just sweating all day, every day. So this email won't be that long. This week we continue to spend a lot of our time looking for people to teach. It sometimes feels like we are opening this area as it has been opened for a little less than a year. To start this transfer we had only a couple of people that we were teaching but now we have got some really solid people and a couple of people who are still good just not progressing as fast. 

We spent about half of our Friday at a University teaching students english and doing service for a member that works there. Honestly the goal of this transfer has been to find and begin teaching as many people as we can. On average I probably talk to about 30 people a day and have about 1 or 2 people interested in the message I have to share about my Savior. 
 
When I got to Thailand, I baptized one of my friends within 10 days. Since then I haven't had to much success. However, in less than a week one of the people I teach named อ้อย or อ้อม (awm or oy, she goes by both) will be baptized! I am so excited for her and her decision to follow Jesus Christ. I will let you know how it goes.

For English we have had so much fun this transfer. I cant believe this transfer is almost over. I have loved being in Phuket and I'm not sure if I will stay or leave. I love my mission and I'm so grateful for the opportunity to serve the Lord! 

Love
