Sorry I know that I am perhaps the slowest blogger on earth but I will keep trying!! SO.....Elder Wilson said goodbye to Aurora, I don't think he was too sad to leave it behind! He spent a couple of days in the big city of Denver with the Zone Leaders who he said were "great missionaries"! He had a really neat experience there with a lady that he met who had been excommunicated from the church.....he had a chance to share some personal feelings and thoughts with her and share his testimony. He was waiting for his next transfer and was hoping that he wouldn't stay in the CITY! According to him.....it was TOOO BIGGG and had TOOO many people:) He ended up being transferred to Craig, Colorado on June 3rd! He says it is like "ERDA"! His new companion is Elder Landon who is from Ammon, Idaho. He says that in this new area there are a lot of "less-active" people! He spends a few hours every Wednesday, which is his P-Day, teaching four men at the local jail! What a great sacrifice it is to give up the few free hours he has to suit up and keep "preaching" the gospel....WAY TO GO ELDER WILSON:) He gave his first really great lesson on "the plan of salvation" to a young couple Erica and Bobby who have a little girl. He said that while he was teaching the spirit prompted him to ask Erica to commit to baptism......and even though he thought Bobby was further along than her.....he followed the prompting and asked her to be baptized. She said that she had always wanted to be baptized and she asked Chase what she should do next? I believe he said.....UHHHHHH???? So he asked them to come to church on Sunday! I am not sure that things will work out with her because last time I asked they had canceled but I am so proud of you Chase for "listening to and following" the promptings of the Holy Ghost! That is exactly what the Lord would have you do!! You planted the seeds and hopefully they will grow!! On Wednesday we received an e-mail that said that he was moving to a "new house"? Not so sure what that was all about but if there is anything that a missionary knows how to do well, it is how to "PACK UP AND MOVE"!! So "Addios" again and "Hola" as well...hahaha:)
