"Better late than never!"

Hey gang! This week on #whatsmysnack I'm tossin it back to a few weeks ago. After MLC, Elder Ward and I were making the trek back to Hyde Park and we were hungry so we pulled off to a panda express at this truck stop. It was pretty good panda not gonna lie but the cool part was sitting over the freeway while we ate. It was pretty neat.

Dang good week out here in South side!! We had exchanges with the AP's and I got to go out to Woodridge with elder Clegg. It was good to be back in the West, I sure miss those corn fields! Crazy, the last time I saw them they were tall and green, now they are all brown and cut! It was a real good time out there with elder Clegg, he's a stud!

Saturday was real good too. Arnaud got baptized!!! We were nervous bc he wasn't answering our calls and it was 10 minutes before the baptism. He finally called us and said he missed the bus, so we had a member go pick him up haha. He got there 20 minutes late but hey better late than never! Also pretty cool, Elder S. Gifford Nielson who is a 70 and is on the missionary department came and met with our stake President and our ward mission leader. Elder Ward and I ran into them coming out of the meeting and so we got to shake his hand and talk to him for a bit!

On Sunday I got to confirm Arnaud, which was great, he was so happy, he couldn't stop smiling! It's been awesome to see the progression with the recent converts too, the Bellos all got callings. Oladele is a primary teacher, Lydia is a ward missionary, and Dami is a young men's advisor! Oladele and Dami also blessed the sacrament, such a cool thing to witness!!

Hecka stoked for conference this weekend, gonna be a good one! Love y'all!
