Hi everyone!
This week was really good, we had Thanksgiving, we ate 3 meals that day, we had lunch with the Bishop and his family, and then we had dinner with one member family, and after that we went and had dinner with another member family, so needless to say I ate so much food I wanted to die. It was great though, the members out here are amazing. We should have a baptism next week, so I'm really excited about that, it's a girl named Jaz, whose parents are members but are less-active. We've been going over every week and trying to re-activate them, and we've been teaching their daughter Jaz about baptism, and they've been coming to church and everything, so that's really exciting. We also have another baptism coming up in December, and one scheduled for January, so the work is going great here in North Carolina.
My companion Elder Anderson finishes his mission today, and goes home to Idaho tomorrow! It's crazy to see him leaving, it kinda makes me feel like I am going to be here forever haha, but it's good :) So tomorrow I'll have a new companion here in my area with me, which leaves me in charge of the area and all the investigators, which I'm kind of nervous about, but it will be good. I'm learning so much on my mission, and I am seeing the gospel reaching out and changing people's lives. It is wonderful. Well I gotta go but I love you all and will see you soon!
Love,
Elder Rider
