Doctrine and Covenants 60:2-3

“I finished my first transfer! What the what. I have been out in the field 6 weeks. Craziness! I am with Sister Fernandez again, and in the same YSA ward. I am so happy. The ward is great, and supportive. Just in case anyone wanted to know that I am still funny and awkward. I will assure you that I am. During a Restoration lesson with an investigator I accidently ripped pg. 1537 right out of my Bible. On the back of this page is James 1:5, yup the Joseph Smith scripture that I use all the day long, and I just went ahead and ripped it right out. I had to try not to kill the Spirit of the lesson, and act all cool about ripping my scriptures. Like it was no big thing. Sister Fernandez told me that the ward see's me as their friend, and that she is the business women, and that we bring balance. I'll take that any day. A member in the ward asked me to be a bride’s maid for her when she gets married next year. I will be home from my mission, and of course I said yes. So I love my ward even though all the boys insist on wearing polos to church.
I had my first baptism! It was incredible! It went perfectly. The investigator is 19, and she just graduated from high school. She is just sweet, and it is contagious. She told me that she is really happy that I am here for another transfer. It is really nice when people say that they like you, and appreciate your hard work because mostly I just feel like a creep because I love and care about my ward so much, and I was worried that it was one sided.

I am so happy, so freakly, and so excited about being on a mission and serving Heavenly Father whole heartily. Love you all."
