Hey mom,

Thanks for the letter I did finally get the last email. thats awesome to hear about everyone leaving on a mission i know its an awesome experience that has helped me a ton.  transfer calls are coming up. we are suppose to be getting them this saturday. Im not sure if i will be staying or if i will be going to a new area. i have been here for 4 and a half months but i want to stay here for about 3 more months. i dont know if that will happen but i hope that i will be here for at least one more transfer. because transfer calls are coming on saturday hold any mail till sunday when i skype i will know if i am leaving or staying so you can know where to send it. i think that we will be on skype at about 6 our time which is 7 there so be on at that time. i figured that would be the best time for the fam and i really dont have another time that i could do that. so just tell the family to be at home so that i can see them. i only have an hour and a half to talk so tell everyone to be there early. if you need to tell me something or change something before then snailmail me asap because we wont be able to email. also make sure dad does it too.

so now thats out of the way this week has been great! a lady and her daughter (liv and grace) who have been coming to church set up a time with us so that we can go over and teach them. they already comsider themselves mormons and the daughter told a member that she wanted to get baptized. so we are meeting with them tomorrow to talk to them more about that. we also had a lady named maranda contact us through mormon.org who basically said that she wants to be baptized. so my comp and one of our zone leaders met with her (i was in medford on exchanges with the other zone leader) and they set a baptismal date with her for the 26th. i really hope that i will be here next transfer for that. she has 2 kids and one of them is 4. we are meeting with them tonight and i am going to give zoey (the 4 year old) the book of mormon the primary gave me. so i will write later and tell how that went. total we had 4 new investigators at church which is awesome because we have been struggling for a while. but tons of miracles are happening. we had zone conference this week with president young and it was great. but i think the best day this week was sunday. we had an incredible fast and testimony meeting. oh and some kids in the ward made me an Elder Berg Jr. so now i have a son. i and to sign adoption papers and everything. i will send pictures of it.  so thats pretty much everything awesome that happened this week. at zone conference we had a OEM idol where we did a sing and dance thing. i think i will try and send the video later if i can. oh and i bought a awesome singing bowl. i was thinking about the drum but i dont have to room to lug it around so if i really want one i will get it at the end of the mission. anyways i think that is pretty much it for this week so i will talk to you all on sunday!
