I am getting transferred tomorrow to Midwest city OK... it is just east of OKC. I am excited to go.. sorry today is a very busy day so this is going to be very short..
Highlight of the week--- we went to Purcell to see the baptism of a Hoffman boy!
It was great to see him make the choice to follow Christ. He is Joel's age.
I also got to see that great ward up there! O yeah and Ron Fishburn!
Good stuff y'all thanks for all of the prayers and support!
