Transfers!

Hola everyone.

We have great news! I am staying in the best area ever! Unfortunately mi papi Elder Guzman is leaving, but he will be going to Reno, so that's cool!

Elder Guzman prior to his transfer.

I will be getting an Elder Jarnagin to be my new companion in this area. Which is funny because he trained my district mate in the MTC Elder Gurr. Apparently Elder Jarnagin is a very hard worker, so I look forward to seeing what we can accomplish together.

The area has been going well. A little slow on investigators, since 2 weeks ago we were given a list of 45 names of Less Active Sisters to go visit by the new Relief Society President. We wanted to get on her "good side" so we visited every name and have quite a bit of follow ups with them. She was very grateful! Anyway, things have been going well and I am continuing to see the blessings of obedience.

We were at a members house with some other less actives as well, and they wanted a picture. The members that live there have 7 kids total. The youngest one Brigham dabbed right before they took the picture. So of course we all had to get a picture dabbing. It was pretty amazing.



The Spanish is getting better slowly, I started having Spanish dreams again like in the MTC, so that is a good sign. Whenever I am transferred I am hoping for an all-Spanish area so I can actually be immersed.

Ran across this sweet ride while out visiting.

Not really all that much happened this week. Just learning and learning. I guess one thing I haven't mentioned is that I have been kind of teaching (not really) myself piano. Whenever we have free time during District Meetings or on P-days I like to sit down and just play some songs from the Hymn books. I've got Be Still My Soul, High On The Mountaintop, Nearer My God To Thee, and Come Ye Children of The Lord down to two fingers, but I gotta work on using both hands now to get the tenor and bass lines. And I'm really close with Praise To The Man! I am not very coordinated so its a little hard. But I have been practicing and now I can get most songs in there just doing the melody. Piano is fun! Now I'm gonna have to be one of those Mormons who teaches all their kids to play piano and has an upright piano in every room.

Anyway, not much else to report! Hope everyone had a great week.

Adios!
