I did get transferred!!! My first
thoughts were "No I can't get transferred I have to stay here and work
with our investigators" But then I remembered that President Ferrin is
inspired of the Lord and that the Lord knows what is best for me. I have been
transferred to the Brás Cubas area in the zone Mogi das Cruzes. My new
companion's name is Elder Cosme. He's from here in Brazil and so I will be
completely immersed in Brazil and the language except for my weekly letters
home. Elder Cosme actually was in my district my first transfer and I already
have a tie from him from when we switched the first transfer! Elder Steele will
have a new son which is great because that means I won't be an only child
anymore! He's excited for the opportunity to train again. He'll be staying in
our area in Vista Verde. Right now I'm in the mission office using one of the
computers of the secretaries. I'll probably work some more on my excel sheets
when I'm done here :) Take advantage of the time. If you'd like to chat, feel
free too, I'm on for the next little bit.
Oh!!!!! and 2 of the elders in my
district in the MTC are arriving today!!! That’s also another reason why I'm
here. I'm waiting for them! They should get here in more or less a half hour.
Elder Charles and Elder Matheny.
I also got the package for Christmas.
The one with the papers. An elder came up to me and told me I had a package but
that he'd already opened it because he thought it was for the zone haha so I
have it with me now and I'll wait to "open" it til Christmas.
Love all of you!
Oh also, I paid a man today to
make scripture covers for me! For my small bible and my triplet (BOM,D+C,PGP)
it was 135 reais or about 60 bucks. So that's part of my Christmas present for
sure. Thanks mom and dad!! When I get it (next transfer [jan.21]) I'll take
pictures to show you guys. It's Very cool. It'll protect the scriptures Very
well. Leather and all that good stuff.
Happy Tuesday!
