Where did the transfer go?
Hola y'all!
First
off, Where the crap did this transfer go?! Like it feels like it was
just last week that we lost English Elders and it became just me and
Izzy in the apartment! It has been a great transfer and I am sad to see
it end. So the transfer news is that Elder Israelsen is going to go salt
n pepper in Metairie. Kinda funny since last time Izzy and I got
separated I went salt n pepper. I am staying here in Chalmette and my
new comp will be Elder Hernandez. I am super excited to have a native
comp that can really help me with my Spanish! This should be a good
transfer!
So this week was kinda crazy! We had
interviews with President on Tuesday and that was good. I really love
our Mission President and his wife. They really are like our parents
away from home. This week we got bored of the regular tracting routine
and so we decided to go on a walk haha. We went to an area that has some
cool graffiti that we wanted to get pictures with and just walked
around and got to talk to a bunch of people! Best part is it is sooo
much easier to start a conversation out on the street than it is on
someones doorstep and a lot of times people will end up coming to talk
to us! For example, we were walking past an art gallery that wasn't open
yet but the owner was outside and stopped us to talk and ask what we
were out doing. We got to tell him about what we were doing and where we
were from and he thought it was super cool. He even let us come into
his gallery so that we could look around! In the end we traded
information with him and are planning to do service for them at the
gallery!
The other cool thing that we got to do
this week was go with Brother Landers to give presents to the
granddaughter of a member of our ward. It was a member that I have only
met once before but she is super sweet and her granddaughter was sooo
happy to get presents!
Idk I know that a lot
more stuff happened this week but my brain just can't remember them
right now haha! Well I hope all is well with all y'all!
