Justyce is being a perro! |
Families are forever no matter where we are living! |
So we went back home after talking to you all and walking Karla home and
then planned for the night. We gave our numbers to our District Leader
Elder Beardsley and then started writing in our journals and getting
ready for bed. We were just about to turn the light off because it was
after 10:30 and our phone rang. Weird right? It was our District
leader!!! He had been given the transfer list. I am headed to Vista
Hermosa Tapachula! They called last night so that we could pack and
clean the house because I leave at 2 PM today and have to be in the OCC
(bus station) at 1PM. So we washed my dirty clothes and hung them up all
over the house and the clothes line, and Hermana Rodriguez and I packed
up my things with tears streaming down my face. I really felt all day
Saturday and Sunday that I would be leaving but I didn't want it to be true. I
have really loved working in this area with my companion and the
members and the Elders and our investigators.

I am sad to be leaving,
and a little nervous for my new companion and because Tapachula is
SOOOOO hot and rains SOOOO much. But I will go where the Lord wants me
to go. We listened to that song so much this morning
(" I´ll go where
you want me to go"). I felt like the words were speaking what is on my
mind!

So that's the big news! We said goodbye to our investigator, his
mother, and his brother. I really hope that soon they accept this gospel
into their lives! It's already changing them. He only needs to go to
church a few more times and then he can be baptized!
I love you all. So much.
Happy Birthday to Colin. Can't believe you are 12 and get the Priesthood. Can't wait to go do baptisms for the dead at the temple with you when I get home!
I am going to miss the great people of Tuxtla Gutierrez! |
Keep smiling and keep praying as a family and personally!
Hermana Oliphant
