Week 57

Well Hello there!

So this week was pretty good, we had a lot of good lesson's which doesn't happen a lot... well lesson's in general don't happen a lot that is.  

We found a less active who actually lived pretty close to the church the other day and we read from the book of mormon with him.  I don't know how he's less active.  He has a better testimony then some active members.  His scriptures were all marked up, he's read the whole Jesus the Christ book, and just is really pretty smart in the gospel.  And then he came to church on sunday!! So that was pretty sweet.  All he needed was 1 person to come visit him.

But now to the subject of the email.  Transfers.

There's been a pattern throughout my mission so far, a couple of patterns actually.

1st pattern:  I stayed in my first area for 4 transfers, I stayed in my second area for 3 transfers, i stayed in my third area for 2 transfers...  So i told Elder Lofthouse that i was going to stay for only one transfer because that's what my pattern dictated.  So true to my pattern i am leaving tomorrow!  To Clarksville TN.  which is a pretty big city, there are at least 5 wards there because i'm going to Clarksville 5th ward, with Elder Ellerbeck.

So i totally called that one

2nd pattern:  When i left the Shelbyville ward, Sister's took over one of our appartments.  so we had to clean up really well...  When i left Foxcroft they replaced us with sisters...  When i left Springfield they replaced us with sisters...  So i told elder Lofthouse that when i left sister's were going to replace us, i told him this like week 1...  Well, True to this pattern, SISTER'S ARE REPLACING US!!!

Called that one too...

it's starting to get annoying.  Especially since i was really starting to know the area so i started liking it more, and things were picking up...

I don't know what'll happen after this though, i can't stay less then 1 transfer, well unless i get ET'd.  Maybe i'll just stay the rest of my mission there.

Welp!!  That's the news this week.

Love Ya'll!
