Next Transfer!

Image
My third transfer over and now on to the forth! Pretty crazy it went by quick! I found out that I am staying here in Bridgeport, CT again for another transfer but I am getting a new companion so that is exciting. Just this past week end we had a amazing miricle. So we were able to baptize 3 amazing friends and it was super awesome! The whole ward was there and friends and it was super spiritual. We were able to baptize a members wife and their daughter and the wifes brother, so Nelsy, Helen and Angelina! The husband was inactive and he really wanted to baptize his family and with some time he was able to baptize them so it was all around super awesome! Thanks everyone for all the support and prayers!!! Elder Kendrick Bridgeport, CT Pictures of the baptism and our Zone

Last Week Of Transfer

So this past week was really good and we have some really cool friends who are preparing for Baptism for this week. Nelsy, Helen and Angelina. They are a family and they really love the Book of Mormon and have a really strong testimony of its truthfulness. They are really prepared for Baptism so its really exciting. Also our recent convert Robert just got the priesthood and is preparing to go to the temple with the Ward this Saturday coming up. So super exciting! This is going to be my last week here probably in Bridgeport, so this Saturday I will find out where I'm going. The weather here has been really nice like 50's and even some 75-80 weather. Thanks everyone for all the support and prayers! These are some pictures of what parking lot finding looks like. With me actually in them

Quick Week

Image
It has been a fast week can't really believe it's Monday again. This week we found a lot of people to teach but they fell through which isn't fun. Anyways we have a family of 3 that is going to get baptized soon that has been coming to church for a long time but hasn't really committed until now. So that's super exciting! We had a big exchange with other elders in our Zone and I was able to learn a lot about teaching better and learning to find better as well. This Wednesday coming up we have a mission tour with President of the North America North East Area and he is coming to talk to the missionaries here in Manhattan so we will be going down to listen and take notes. Only have a couple weeks until the end of this transfer so its moved quickly. Anyways thanks for all the support and prayers! Elder Kendrick Bridgeport, CT Some pictures Sorry I sent it late

Cat

So this week we had interviews with President over in Woodside I think its called, just a chapel in NY. President Holmes it a very good guy and is very knowledgeable about the Gospel. Also General Conference was awesome and it will be one that I will always remember. Pretty cool to listen to General Conference as a missionary its definitely different but it was good. Also have a funny picture of a cat in a parking lot where we contact people at so yeah. We have some cool people that we are teaching and have found so it has been good. Overall it's been a good week! Thanks everyone for all the prayers and support! Elder Noah Kendrick  Bridgeport, CT

Flashlight Lesson

This week has been good we have been teaching more and finding a lot of people so its been good. We have been teaching a guy named Mauricio, and have been teaching where he works which is in like a little junk/car lot thing. He is progressing towards baptism for the 8th of April. He is the guy in the photo with the flashlight sitting next to me. He came to church with his Book of Mormon in hand and really liked it so its pretty awesome. Its been just kind of a normal week this week but this week-end we have general conference so that's really exciting. We had zone conference this week and talked about the house of Israel and Jacob:5 in the Book of Mormon and its crazy good how he explained it to us so yeah. Thanks everyone for all the support and prayers! Eleer Noah Kendrick Bridgeport, CT

Out Of Training

Pretty crazy but I am now out of training now so time is moving quickly. Yeah so I'm staying in Bridgeport, CT but I love it here so it's no problem. Our friend Robert is going to get the preisthood next week which is really exciting so he is just awesome.  We have been teaching more lessons than usual so that has been awesome so I'm excited to see how they progress. We have Zone Conference tomorrow so that will be really exciting because our mission president is super awesome and really knowledgeable in the scriptures and the gospel, so I'm excited for that. General Confernce is also in a couple weeks so that is also super hype, I'm excited to hear and see the messages and also what gets announced. This Wednesday we have a ward temple trip so we might go if we can get a recent convert to go. We also have been meeting with this family and the dad is a member we talked to him and he wants to get his kids baptized. But he has a wife that he divorced and he remarried t...

Staying In Bridgeport

Our transfer just ended and I'm staying in Bridgeport for at least another six weeks. Im happy because I like the ward here, the Spanish ward is really awesome and loves the missionaries so its awesome. It was just a normal week really with normal parking lot contacting and other stuff. Our recent convert Robert has been really awesome and is getting the preisthood soon so he is a really fire member and friend. We had the opportunity to go to one of the sisters baptisms for a guy named Juan. He is super humble and a nice guy. He had some back problems and stuff so they had to have two people in the font to baptize him so he really wanted it. After he was confirmed and given the gift of the holy ghost he was crying and overjoyed so it was super spiritual for us and him. Overall our entire district stayed the same so we got super lucky this transfer. My Spanish is improving slowly but from when i first got here it has improved drastically. Thanks everyone for all your support and pra...
