Browning means "relish" in Russian

It's been a good week here in the Iona South Stake. Fist off, we had the baptism and confirmation of Robert this past weekend. It's amazing to see the progression of him and his family as they have gone through this process of learning of the gospel. His wife Desiree, is still on track to be baptized here in the next couple months but is still struggling to overcome her smoking addiction. We gave her an "Addiction Recovery Booklet' and every time we're over at their house, she's always looking at it, so it's good that she wants this change in her life. On Wednesday we had transfers and I got another new companion and his name is Elder Crosby. He is from the Pasadena area in California and has been out just under a year. He's super cool and we work so well in unity when we are teaching. I feel like this is going to be yet another good transfer. Other than that, we did some service for on of our ward mission leaders' and then had a couple good lessons the rest of the week. That's all for this week. Sorry for another short email. Hope y'all have a good week. The church is true, God is good!
