Welcome to Rio

 Hey everyone! 

 For those of you that might not know, I moved from Brownsville to Rio Grande City. It's about 2 hours northwest of Brownsville. It's a super small city and the branch here is also super small. I forgot to take pictures of our chapel though. Oops.

 So Monday we said goodbye to people in Brownsville and then Tuesday was transfers. We are in a trio. I'm with Elder Allred and Elder Loo. Elder Loo goes home on the 26th so once he leaves, we will be in a normal companionship. 

 Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday we had very few lessons and lots of meetings. We had to drive back down to McAllen on Friday too. Members fed us Subway three days in a row. I'm not complaining!

 Really nothing too exciting happened this week. We have two people who could get baptized really quick. One we are most likely going to baptize before Elder Loo leaves and the other hopefully soon after. They have just had some hectic schedules and unplanned things come up. I also had a chance to do my second baptismal interview and it went great! Also I gave a talk on Sunday and talked about Elder Christofferson’s talk in General Conference. We are opening a new zone here in our mission, but the missionaries here are already seeing so much success! We just have to follow their examples! But really I am excited and nervous at the same time being here, but I know the Lord will bless us! 

 Hope you have a great week!

 Love you all
Elder Tolman
