well im am all better i am out of the hospital and working hard i got to
go back to sta margarita for a few days and had some members feed us we
actually cooked with the corkys sauce it was amazing then i found out i
was transferring so i packed my bags and headed to tacloban for my check
up which i did not go to i talked sister andaya out of it since i feel
normal again and she agreed so i stayed in the office all day and helped
sister andaya get things organized from the hospital papers from all
the sick elders and sisters and ate some pizza and met up with some
other elders and had a good night talking about gospel stuff then friday
morning was transfer meeting i got my call and everyone was joking
saying i was going to go to the middle of no where and be in another
super unorganized place but im not i opened my call and i am now
companions with elder myers he is from texas and we are assigned in
bobon wich is in catarman zone and it is also the farthest zone away
from tacloban it takes about 7 to 9 hours on a bus or 5 to 7 hours on a
van and it is amazing i am assigned in a stake and a ward that has
about 160 attendance every week and the members work with the
missionaries all the time and i am so stoked to be here elder myers is
actually a freind of mine from the mtc he goes home one transfer after
me so its so cool we were actually in the mtc together for 3 weeks this
is the first time i have been companions with some one with like the
same amount of time as me left and we are having so much fun we had a
great first day i stayed in catarman friday night because we got home at
like 2 in the morning from tacloban and then i went back to bobon at
about 7 and we went straight to work it was amazing we taught 4 lessons
then my companion started feeling sick and we headed home this area is
awesome and its even better because it is my trainer elder andrus first
area and elder ostlers last area before he went home and on sunday it
was amazing even though the power went out testimonies kept going the
youth and single adults just got home from a temple trip so it was
awesome and then we got invited to a meeting with the stake council and i
got some time to talk to them and gain their trust and i was able to
give a few suggestions about how they can have a more spiritual
sacrament meeting and the stake received it humble and thanked me and it
just feels great to be here i cant wait to meet with them some more and
see what else we can do to help out around the stake and better
coordinate the work of the missionaries and members it will be awesome i
am so stoked about this transfer amazing area and an amazing companion
we are already freinds and we both love all the same things so its going
to be great we are making some awesome new goals and we are hopefully
going to set a good example for all the missionaries around us well im
still not completely sure what the day is but i will find out soon i just
got a letter from the office and i will forward it to you so you can
get me the information i need but i don't think it has a date on it but i
think it will be june 3 but i will ask because the transfer day is now
june 5 and not june 22 so we will hopefully know next week well thank
you for fasting you guys are the best family ever i love you all so much
and i do pray for you all individually every night before bed and i
hope that helps your lives become easier well sorry not much happened
this week but im excited and hoping for big things this transfer
