Three down, one to go!!!

 Last week we had the opportunity to talk to our families over the phone. It was a really nice to hear my family again and to be able to know that they are doing well. It lifts my spirits. I had a really good long talk (less then an hour) with them, but what can I do? Its been 5 months. I cant believe that this is the 3rd time I've called home. Just one more time in December and thats it. Thats crazy!!

 Well this past week was kinda rough. One of the couples that we were working with decided that they didnt want to meet with us any more. It was hard to hear that because I thought that they had a lot of potential, but I guesss this is not their time. I know that later on thet will soften theri hearts.

 Also I just got word that I'm gaoing to get trasferred out of this area. Just when I was getting used to my companion and the branch, I have to leave it. I'm going to some place called Oreville, I think, its a town almost bordering Canada. Its going to be a new experience because must of the work is going to be in english, something that I have not done, and I'm going to be in charge of starting a new littlt group there. Lets see how it goes.

 This past sunday our Stake Presidency was changed. Elder Snow of the Presidency of the Seventy came and called the new Stake President. I think that this is the first time that I have witnessed a change in the stake. It was pretty sweet. The only thing is that I really didnt get to enjoy it because I was translating. Traslating is hard but its is a lot better when you go by the spirit.

 Well people, next week I will be writing yall from another part of Washington. So stay tuned!! I love you all and take care.
