November 7, 2016 - Welcome to Gateway

So this week felt like an eternity for some reason. Transfer weeks always do because it seems like you have a week in both your old area and the new. I am now settled in with Elder Wright, he is from Oregon and is tall, Ginger and good at basketball. He came out with Elder Low and has been a zone Leader for 1 Transfer before this one. He is very good and I think we should get along well.  

Saying Bye to Brandon was quite the challenge to be honest, I love the people there so much and am going to miss them so much. I am really looking forward to getting to know the members here better. I was hoping coming in to the area that there would be a huge family waiting to get baptized and I am sure there is but currently our main people we are teaching are the "knocking on door family" and the "street contacting family". It is fun though because there are probably 100-150000 people that live in our area so running out of doors to knock will not be a concern.

We had a ZTM this week in Brandon which was interesting because transfers were the next day. It went really well, I love giving ZTM's. (Zone Training Meetings). We trained on Family Home evening and also gave the same portion on relationship with the bishop from MLC last week.

We had a north America wide stake conference this week so I met like barely any members of our ward but it was really good, there were a few talks given mostly on temples and their importance. It was very fitting because Winnipeg temple is supposed to be less than 2 years away. We shall see though. I like Winnipeg, it is a little overwhelming but I think I will grow to love it!
Love you all

Elder Stewart
