Hey Family,
I'm loving life! The fossil Ridge area is great. It is a lot more wealthy than the other area's I have been in. In my last area there where a lot of wealthy areas but we never spent any time in them we always tracted in the ghetto. I thought that was the best thing to do because the people there were more humble and willing to hear us out, but I'm realizing there needs to be a balance.
The people here that will listen to you are golden. We found a man named Shannon the other day. He is a recovering alcoholic who is going through a bit of a rough time but he is a great father and he is open to the ideas we have been sharing with him. He has been reading from the Book of Mormon and has committed to come to church already.
We baptised a 15 year old black kid named X-Zavier on Sunday. He is the last of his family to get baptised. It was awesome to see how happy he and his family were at the baptism. This area has been doing great. They had previously baptised 5 other members of his family and two other people before I got here. We also have three other baptismal dates set. Please pray that we will be able to get back into contact with some of our investigators.
I'm enjoying the bike as long as I have water. A member let us borrow a GPS and we are going to keep track of how many miles we are riding every day, but I would guess that we do somewhere between 5 to 10 miles a day. All of the close areas to us have been tracted so we have to ride up hill to the last area that hasn't been tracted recently.
P-days here are interesting. We have to rely on other Elders for our ride to and from places and today everyone is in a hurry so I love yall.
Love Elder Rindlisbacher
