Hey,
So, a
couple updates: yeah, transfers came in. This is my last area, and my last
companion....it hit me really hard last night when the zone leaders came over
and told me. I just realized, this is the end. It doesn't help that my
companion is constantly singing the Adele song from James Bond movie, Skyfall.
He keeps singing the part: “This is the end, hold your breath and count to ten.”
It gives me a lot of stress, but it's sad that this is the end of my mission
life. I will not go to another place, I will not preach to other people. But at
the same time is easy because I am comfortable here.
Other news, I was not
able to get the pig. I asked this lady here to cook food for my birthday and it
took most of the money for the rest of the food and I didn't want to make her
pay for it. But I had someone make me a rocking cake; it was the most delicious
thing ever, so that was great!!! I also got members to promise to make me a pig
for when I finish.
I’m worried about
coming home and going back to work. I don't want uncle Mark to waste money on
me; I think I forgot how to do all my normal construction work. It's been a
long time, plus Tongans are pro at red necking stuff with sticks and machete's.
I don't know if I could follow building codes or any of that crap anymore. I
don't want to be a liability, but I love working with Mark at the same time.
This week the work has
been kind of blah. We are inviting tons of people and it feels like I am just
waiting on everyone to use their agency, but they are really slow and not smart
about using it. I have two people just waiting to be baptized, but they
struggle greatly to come to church. I only have one transfer left so I am going
to work the hardest I ever have. I am going to knock on EVERY single door and
cleanse my blood from here. I love you guys!
Ofa atu,
