Elder Brady's Motto

"I have desired that while serving a mission that I am to do God's will, not mine. If it is the will of God that I should spend my days proclaiming this Gospel and bearing testimony of these things, I shall think of myself highly privileged and honored. When the spirit of God is upon me, I think it matters very little what I suffer, and what I sacrificed - whether I secure the honor or dishonor of men, or where I die, if it so be that I can keep the faith, fight the good fight, and finish my course with joy, I have all eternity before me in which to enjoy myself."

Transfer 15


Hello!
Big News!
We got transfer calls!
So president doesn't like trios at all but he told us that we were doing very well and basically told us he doesn't want to fix something that's not broken... So yes we get to stay together another transfer! Ludlow called up Pres and told him that it would be his dying(last transfer) wish to have us stay together to help him finish strong! Same with Yovanno, and it looks like the phone calls worked! So they are super pumped right now! And they are finally splitting up the wards! All three of us got moved over to the family ward and two sister missionaries will be going to the YSA ward for now on. We'll find out who it is on Tuesday! Hopefully it's sister Ngalu and Fili, they're our favorite, super chill, Tongan sisters!
Anyways, the only down side to this is that we are giving up our car to the sisters in the YSA ward and they are putting us on bike! Noooo! Elder Yovanno is the only who actually has a bike still... Ludlow's got borrowed/broken/lost and mine was stolen in Valencia. So we are currently trying to figure out the bike situation now without buying one with so little mission time left. We were thinking we would just put some back wheel pegs on Yoko's bike with a handlebar basket and have all three of us ride it :) ha jk.
Sadly, Elder Johnson is getting transferred out of Van Nuys, finally, which will be hard to see him go!
We just accomplished our big transfer goal and finished the Book of Mormon last Thursday! Pres called us and congratulated us but is too busy to take us out to lunch because of the crazy transfer stuff going on right now.
We are going to have to start working extra hard now because ALL of our investigators progressing towards baptism are YSA's. So whoever the sisters are going there are going to walk into a couple baptisms and a golden area that we built up. However, the 1st ward is not so hot... so basically even though we are all staying together, this transfer is not going to be anything like our last one. Franco is trying to move into the Northridge family ward boundaries so that we can continue to teach him haha. We'll see how that goes, fingers crossed!
Well I've got to go! Love you all!
Love, Elder Brady
no regrets
