Kendrick, Noah

This transfer has gone by really fast! I have seen a lot of miracles. Here in Queens we have been very blessed for our efforts. We had a cool miracle that happened as well. We were calling people who have been previously taught, seeing if they could attend church with us on Sunday. A lady named Daniela answered and said that she would bring her family with her. I just sent her the address and didn't think much of it. She came to church with her three kids. It was Daniela the mom, Dominica, Dustin and Sofia. They were all above the age of 8. All of them loved church and were very excited to learn more. After church we set up a time to teach them more. We taught them the restoration lesson and they loved it! The oldest daughter Dominca wasn't there. We told them that they could get baptized as a family that Sunday and they agreed! We taught them throughout the week and Daniela, Dustin and Sofia all got baptized that Sunday. Pretty crazy miracles. You never know who the Lord has p...

This week has been another really good and busy one. I would say that I am pretty used to the street that we contact on. I’ve never seen so many people. It's crazy, but there are a lot of good people. We also taught some very elect people that God placed in our path. This weekend we should be able to have 3 solid people getting baptized. It's super awesome to find these elect people, so I'm excited for this week. This last week hasn’t been mega eventful outside of missionary work, but overall a good week. We play a lot of basketball because every morning we play at the church with the district and P-days with the zone. So super fun. Thanks everyone for your support and prayers!

This week has been crazy because of transfers. Overall I'm happy to be situated whereI am. I have been transferred to Rego-Park Queens after 6 months in Bridgeport. My apartment is not as nice as the one in Connecticut. I am going to miss having my own laundry machines for sure. Off to the laundry mat now. Another big change for sure is going from parking lots to crowed streets. There are a lot more people here than in Connecticut. I can see the Manhattan sky line from here, which is cool to see. I’m excited to see what going to happen in the future. I have a picture of some water that got on my leg from some little kids carrying water balloons and one exploded. Just one of those things that make you smile and bring variety to your day. The next picture is some police arresting people who were fighting in a park, kinda crazy! We were talking to some people in the park when all the sudden sirens and police officers were running into the park. They arrested some people and loaded the...

It has been an awesome crazy past few weeks. We had the opportunity to go to the Hartford,CT temple and it was very spirt-filled. I could literally spend my entire day there. We were able to bring 5 of our recent converts and for some, it was their first time! It was extremely special and I loved it. This last week we taught one of the members 11yr old son and he got baptized. He is incredibly smart and even took notes during our little lessons with him. He speaks English and Portuguese so we taught him in English. It was s little weird because I have been teaching in Spanish so much, but overall awesome. This week is transfers. I have been in Bridgeport Connecticut my entire time out in the field. I am excited to see where I will be going next (quit sure I will be transferred) and a little nervous as well. I am sure the Lord will send me were I am suppose to be. My Spanish is coming along in regards to teaching the Gospel lessons. I am comfortable now with lessons, but being fluent in...

Sorry, I have forgotten to to send a email out for the past few weeks. I have been doing well. I have been really busy with stuff. But it has been a quick couple of weeks. Rosa was able to get baptized yesterday!!! She was a member referal and was super elect! She is from Perú and is a super nice lady and is here with some family which isnt very nice and is happy to have a ward family.

I'm into my fourth transfer of the mission so far and am staying in Bridgeport for another 6 weeks. This week has been pretty crazy with a new transfer and a new companion but overall it has been really fun. On Tuesday we did an exchange with the ZL's and before we were about the leave the parking lot that we were contacting in and a family got locked out of their car. We had talked to the family before and they weren't interested. The zone leader I was on an exchange with said that he can get into their car so they can get going. We talked to the family and they said that we could give it a try. So we went into the Dollar Tree that was right there and bought some supplies. It took a while but we got their car unlocked and they were super happy and excited. We took pictures together and said that we want to the send the pictures to them so we got their phone number and sent them the address to the church as well. They felt obligated to come and they actually came to church ...

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
