Hey family friends loved ones,

LIN DIXIONG GOT BAPTISED AND CONFIRMED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am so happy right now. The baptism went well and I got to share how he was Christ like and was willing to sacrifice himself for the good of his family, it was a big spiritual experience and it went smoothly. There was a cool little miracle to, the drain wasn't plugging well and was electric so was making an annoying loud rumble as we were filling up the font but about half way through it went silent and worked. I know God wanted him to get baptized, even though his daughter wasn't there, she comes tomorrow.

 It has been a crazy week. On Tuesday morning president called and said we were having an emergency transfer because the elder with depression was sent home and my companion went zone leader and I got moved to Xin Dian and joined the two elders there, which is fun but my area is suffering now. So it's good and bad but mostly crazy. My companions are crazy the work for covering two areas is crazy. But life is good still and I am still doing the work. This week I should be getting a new Taiwanese member as a companion for a short term, called a duanchuan.  So that will be crazy, but great.  

 Here’s the letter to my president (goes home beginning of July)

This week has been fun but hard for me and my investigators. We got to Ankang only two times this week and only for lessons which went well, but no finding time, and that makes me feel like the area is tuibuing. On Saturday I had 3 investigators committed to church and for various reasons none came. I am nervous and excited for my duanchuan. BUT one of our investigators got baptized this week!!!! It was so great, and he was so prepared. We had a large number of people in attendance and he felt loved. I got to do that prayer meeting we role played and I believe it really helped.  I am excited for him and his family.
Well thanks for everything you do and your example

 Spiritual thought for the week, In the first vision there were 2 personages but one pillar of light. God and Christ’s light/truth is the same. They are completely unified. 

Well I love you all,

Elder Sabey

PS tell the ward youth thanks for the letters.

PPS  How's Parm? I love that woman.
