Well, this week was pretty crazy. Found out that both Elder Shaw and I are being transferred. Pretty sure they are going to put new Elders in, but not certain. It was actually humbling to have many members of the branch say goodbye to us and to see how sad they were that we were leaving.
Brother Moll is pretty sad to see us leaving. He found out his brother up the road who he hasn't spoken to in 10 years had a stroke and is in the hospital. It pushed him to decide to forgive him and try to make amends, hopefully it works out. He told us that Elder Shaw and I are like his sons and he wants us to come visit after if he is still alive, saying goodbye today will be really hard.
We spent a good chunk of time with one of my favorite families, the Houses! They had us over last Sunday, and on Friday for fireworks and Clarissa's birthday, she turned 8. An old missionary, Elder Nabors was there visiting as well, it was a party, had a great time. Then they had us over last night to say goodbye, it was really hard to leave.
Other than that, not much really happened this week. Joe, Mary, and Scott haven't even responded to us saying goodbye.... so that stinks. We will be saying goodbye to Edith today. Her daughter said she cried when we called to let them know....
Anyway, transfers are tomorrow. Should be interesting. Love ya all!
Oh! Susan... So finally heard back from her via email and figured out skype and we are now connected via skype. So hopefully in the next few weeks I will be able to video call her to teach her! Woot!
Love,
Elder Parker
