12 Weeks in Tampa

 I went on exchange up to Springhill with Elder Harper. It was a blast! We got to see so many miracles up there.

We got to go to Josh's baseball game. He's playing little league and played as pitcher and 2nd base. It was a blast! He's a member of the Wallace family whom we've been teaching.

We have a zone conference this week where the entire mission is gathering. The training is taking most of the day and is being done by Elder Jorg Klebingats. He has a talk in the October 2014 General Conference. It's amazing!

So this week was a blast! I got to go on exchange up to Springhill with Elder Harper. Springhill was basically a city of  houses and restaurants. It was a lot different then South Tampa. There were some amazing miracles we got to see though. This week we said goodbye to Elder Gardner one of the Zone leaders. He's headed home tomorrow. It's amazing to see the growth that can happen in just two years. We've been able to see a lot of miracles down here in South Tampa this week too. One huge one was the Smith family making it to church this last sunday. It was 7 of them in total and they loved the service. They stayed for all three hours too! The kids are getting very excited for baptism, it's great to see the Lord working in others lives. Some other miracles happened when I was on exchange with Elder Beazer from Tampa 1C. I decided to take him biking since he hasn't gotten to do so on his mission quite yet. We ended up running into several of our formers we hadn't been able to contact and set a baptismal date with one of our new investigators. It's crazy how many miracles are waiting for us. I've loved how the guidance of the spirit leads us to those miracles that are waiting for us. It's crazy I won't get to be serving with Elder Ellsworth this next transfer! He's headed down to Seminole 1 with a trainee and I'll be training a new missionary here in South Tampa. I hope you all have a great week!

Love Elder Hale
