"It was a rough week!"

After stating, "It was a real rough week" several times throughout his last email, I figured Josh hadn't had his best week in the mission field. He wrote, "With two baptisms coming up this next week, the adversary was working real hard on us!" Josh described a storm that brought an unexpected 5 inches of snow and a temperature change to around 10 degrees. The sun reflecting off of the snow amplified its effects and he got a bad sunburn on one side of his face. He said, "I think my left ear might fall off" Most of their teaching appointments had cancelled on them, there was an increased amount of animosity from those they attempted to approach, and more doors than usual were slammed in their faces. He has developed a foot problem from all of the walking and he admitted that he was more homesick than usual. But even with the increase in challenges he seemed to put things in perspective and said, "It was a real tough week, but I just need to push through this, and good things are to come." Elder Robertson is VERY excited for this weekend's scheduled baptisms of Richard and Chuck. We will all offer our prayers that everything goes according to plan, and that the coming week is a bit better than the last. Transfers are scheduled for the 24th of March. The wondering game begins again. By next monday's email he should be able to tell us if there is a change coming for him.
