Hey Everybody!                                                                               January 7, 2013

We had such an amazing experience on Saturday!  So in another ward in a different stake, the elders were teaching a lady named Emily.  She was super excited about the gospel and they put her on date for baptism on January 5th, so last Saturday!  The Sunday before rolls around, and they find out that she lives in Fairway Village ward!  (Where I am serving)  And they introduce us to her and we taught her a few times this past week, and then she was baptized on Saturday!  It was probably the best experience I have ever had in my life!  When she was baptized she came out of the water laughing/crying and it was really cool! 

We're still working with Austin and it is still going way good!  This week we watched the restoration video with him!  He was having a really bad day with some of his friends and a lot of high school drama and whatnot!  But when he left he was a lot more chill and calm then when we showed up, it was awesome to see the spirit work on him and calm him down!

Last week we did something super awesome!  We went to Multnomah Falls!  It was an awesome hike and the big waterfall is about 600 ft.!!!!!!!  The one mile hike took about an hour though!  It was pretty much straight up!!!  The picture is on a lookout thing that extends over the falls a little bit, I was far away from that end though :)

We have interviews this Wednesday too!  I can't wait to just be able to talk to President Greer!!  It's always awesome and it always gets me re-pumped up about doin work!!  It's gonna be a really awesome time!

Sorry about the crazy random e-mail today!
love,
Elder Pickett
