Next week I shall know my Fate

Felize Dia de Amor y Amestades!


This Saturday we'll be receiving Transfer Calls. I've been in Bear Creek for over seven months, Five Transfers. That's a long time. I don't expect to be staying for another one, especially because my Companion only has one left, that would probably meant that if I stay, and she stays, that I'll be staying at least one more after than to Train another Missionary to take over the Area when I leave. But I've seen crazier things happen. I'll miss Bear Creek whenever it is I leave though.

News on this week, hmmmm... well it went from being BITTER COLD to ideal weather of cool in the shade and warm in the sun with a crisp breeze. It will be like this until April I heard. I still have to make it into another August before I'm home. I was not the biggest fan of being soaked in sweat, but I get over it pretty quick while working.

And for the second time while knocking we encountered someone with the blondest hair and the bluest eyes and their first Language was Spanish!! The one we met this week speaks English very well, but he kept looking at my tag and finally asked if we spoke Spanish. We affirmed that we did and switched over. And he's so intelligent! When we went back to teach him the First Lesson I prayed and in there asked that he could know for himself that this was the True Church. After wards he asked (in Spanish) "You said true church, does that mean that the others are false?" And I was like "Well, yes, that's what we want to explain to you today in the lesson." He kept asking really good logical questions, a few times I had to say "We are actually going to explain that further on, but good question!" I LOVE it when they ask questions with the intent of gaining better understanding.

After errands today we'll be having a Zone Activity with about 24 Missionaries in the park with a BBQ, we were assigned to bring cheese and whatever condiments we have in our fridge. The weather's nice, if they have Volleyball I plan on playing. But I might just be chilling and writing letters while watching the Elders be Elders, and therefore entertaining.

This sunny weather actually makes me so sleepy. It just makes me want to curl up in bed. I think it might be because during the summer I could sleep in and I'd see it being bright and sunny outside my window while I was resting and taking my time getting up and about. Sunny weather equals naps in my mind apparently, heh. That's another thing to fix when I get home. I'll be expecting invitations to go out and do fun things when I'm home, I'll need help not degrading back to my Computer Recluse ways!

Until next week, when I can tell you my fate for the next month and a half!
