October 3, 2016 - General Conference and Transfers

October 3, 2016 - General Conference and Transfers

Woooow the snow! It’s super weird to think that it’s snowing over there! It’s definitely warming up here. A lot... Haha, but it’s ok, the people are always willing to give us a glass of water! We have a big fan in the pension and we have asked for air conditioning, too, haha.

Transfers, we got our transfers!!! I am moving areas! I will be in the other zone of Salta as the senior companion. My companion, Elder Rudder, is going to train an elder, and he is super excited. I’m super excited too to go to this new area. But also I’m a little nervous, haha, like always. But I know I can do it and I’m grateful for the opportunity to step up a little more. I’m going to be with an elder from Utah. I believe his name is spelled Damron. I have talked with him before and he seems like a really nice elder. I’m looking forward to working with him.

We got to see the General Conference in the stake center. They had a room for the missionaries to listen in English. I enjoyed it a lot and there were some really good talks. One of the talks that I loved is that of one of the Seventy that talked about how we need to stop comparing ourselves to others and that the only opinion that matters is the opinion of our Heavenly Father.   I also loved the talk about the mission work and how every member and missionary is working to solve this puzzle. Everyone has a piece of the work to do! Yes, mom, I loved that talk too. That we are here to find JOY - really that’s the point and I love that he explained how we can be in different situations but we can still feel joy. This gospel really is something that the world can’t destroy, when we have internalized these principals, I know that we can find joy in any circumstance. Such a great talk. I really enjoyed the conference, and we managed to have 5 investigators in the conference between the 4 sessions.

I got some letters from a group from Girls Camp. Sister Dobbs sent me the letters and they were really nice. :) It’s always nice to receive a little note, haha.

I am sure that Elder Rudder will continue to do great in the area and I am excited to hear about the people that get baptized!

I’m looking forward to the new area. I have heard that it’s a little richer and so we will see how the people are. I have heard it’s a great barrio and I’m really excited. Hopefully I stay in this area for a little longer than 2 transfers.

I’m doing good, though, I have to pack and that’s about it they are going to start to do transfers on Tuesdays. I think that’s all the news for this week.

Love you all,

Elder Wolf :)

Here we are at the house of Santiago Luna and he had a little dog that I just couldn’t resist.

This is a view.
