This past week was fairly interesting, considering all that happened.
Tuesday
was pretty basic, we did some biking and finding and taught the Bolanos
again.
Wednesday
we had our last district council of the transfer and our last zone call. We
spent the rest of the day sorting things out with area book and our page
messaging team.
We
did what we thought was a deep clean of our apartment Thursday to get ready for
transfers. Then we hit the bike grind again visiting some members and
investigators.
We
showed up to weekly service Friday, but after waiting for 2 hours for something
to do, they told us the truck wasn't coming and that we could just take some
food home with us. We got to teach a really good lesson to Anaika over zoom
right before going to a baptism in the H4 Spanish ward. Elder Norris and I went
on exchanges, and for the first time on my mission, I got to help teach Spanish
speakers English at the English class. It was hard to communicate with them
since I know zero Spanish, but it was fun tryna help them learn Spanish.
In
the morning, Sister Richards messaged us after our inspections and said we
needed to clean our apartment, so Elder Norris and I went back to my apartment
to rearrange things and do another deep clean. All the Elders then came over
and we got our transfer news. I found I'd be moving again for the third
transfer in a row, which is really weird for a missionary to move that much,
especially considering I have such a short time left. We went to the Hibberts
for dinner and then we were gonna have our youth volleyball at the church, but
there was something at the church so we just had to head back home.
Sunday
was just our standard missionary and church meetings. I spent the rest of the
day packing up all my stuff, which was so frustrating. I just hate having to
pack my stuff.
Monday
we met up with a bunch of other missionaries at the mission office for
transfers. It was so fun talking to all the Elders and Sisters I know, that's
one positive from transfers. I met up with Elder Mafi, who's now my companion
with me in Alvin. We went with some Elders to In N Out before heading to our
area. The rest of our district was busy waiting for greenies, so Elder
Mafi and I just went to the church and shot hoops for a bit. In the evening,
Jordan Morgan in the ward took us out to an Italian place for dinner.
All
in all, it was honestly a weird week, but I'm glad there were still positives to
see and miracles to witness.
