Week 9!

so i don't think you guys even like my little jokes in my emails whats up with that? i try to be funny for you guys and you don't even like it. so now i'll just go back to the normal letters. so week 9 is now over i will never be able to go back to week 9 again prettty crazy to think about but this week was good we have a baptism on saturday so thats cool but its a silly as story so she is 8 and her mom is a member and there is no dad in the picture but she was never baptized and we told bishop about it like 3 months ago and he never took care of it and now she turns 9 on friday and is getting baptized on saturday so its a convert baptism for us ha my first on but its cool cause we've been teaching her and her family ever since i got here cause they were less active they've only been back to church like the last 5 weeks so its cool cause really we have been teaching her. and i might even get to baptize her oh and its the jsackman family if you remember me talkin about them. they're great i love them they are super fun. as for the other baptismal dates we had the got dropped so that was a bummer but hopefully we can get back in and try teaching more and rekindle that fire so to say but the one date that is in jan is still good and her daughter will be baptized with her so keep sareena and anthony and jasl in your prayers thanks so we had a specialized training this week that was pretty cool and i don't know if i told you guys but elder taumalolo our district leader has us memorizing 24 scriptures by the end of this transfer which is in 3 weeks i have 2 down its pretty tough but its good it goes with the first talk given in conference good stuff. so we met this lady named bancy on the street last week and she is from kenya and the missionaries taught her there she is cool as and we taught her this week when we were on exchanges and she says she knows the book of mormon is true and she wants to get her husband more involved but he works alot like everyone does here and so she said she would share her testimony with him and the restoration story and have him take the lessons from us and they have a 8 year old boy so thats cool president has issued a mission goal to baptize a family before the year is up so we are excited hopefully this will be on of our families so i'm excited shes great. hmmm so thats about it for this week i think it was a good weeek we have zone confernce this week i'm excited about that. love ya Elder Dalton
