First Transfers...WOW!
June 20,  2016

This past week has been fun. Friday, I played 4 games of Basketball against an investigator and won all of them, he's pretty good though. It was super fun. Also, I really like taking buses, for now. It costs 8.50 pesos for a bus ride, pretty cool. On Sunday, our Elders quorum president mentioned that we are all converts to the church, because we all have to gain a testimony of it. We're not just born automatically with a testimony, I though that was pretty cool, think about it.

Time to say goodbye!
The main news is transfers. Last night, I found out I'm going to Cortazar, Celaya, with a new companion named Elder Silva. I did not want to leave the house. Where I lived was with another American and four other Elders. But now, I only live with my companion, and we're far from others. So last night I packed and washed all my clothes, because no more washing machine or dryer, it's by hand now, haha! I didn't get much sleep, but in the morning I got up and finished all packing. Then I took an hour long bus ride with two other Elders to meet my new companion. We arrived, and met a bunch of Elders waiting for us. Then Elder Silva and I took another bus ride to our area. We talked a lot, he's from Peru and has 7 months on the mission. He's obedient and hard working, he's pretty cool, but so far, I'm really missing the socialness of the others being around too. It's just me and him, but estabien. After a while, he told me a couple times that my Spanish is really good, that I've learned a lot. Him and my old companions have all told me I'm learning really fast, which is great. But to be honest, I don't think I've put forth a ton of effort to learn, the Lord has helped. So we arrived to our new house, it's huge for just us, and its not terrible. We have a little porch to look outside. 

So my birthday is next week, I'm wondering whats going to happen, my new companion showed me a video of him on his birthday and he got his face smashed in some cake, haha.

Also, A BIG HAPPY FATHERS DAY OUT THERE YESTERDAY, Y'ALL ARE SPECIAL! Especially you Dad (Randy)! 

Have a great week everyone! Love you all!
