Whats going on


I am just at the point of moving. I have been in this current home for almost two years now so I have been fortunate. I am looking to move to central Edmonton just North of Whyte Avenue. It will be a lot closer to work; the only sad part will be that I will need to move Wards also.
Currently I am serving as the Ward Mission Leader in my Ward. I was a little tentative a first when I got that calling again. Now that it comes down to leaving my ward and calling I feel kind of sad.
We have some incredible people coming into the church right now. This is not a time that I want to move away. We had a Spanish couple from Mexico who came to our YSA ward. They were refuges from Mexico as some drug gang was pursuing them after the husband foiled one of their operations. I was able to help teach the first discussion and translated church for them one Sunday which was pretty cool. I was awesome to see how they were just so accepting of the gospel. Never a "I don't think thats right," or anything like it. It has been a long time since I have seen someone just believe, and be facinated with what they heard. They have a baptism date in July. The cool part is that their story is not a unique one, but I wont share anymore right now.
Love you all, Tyler
