Transferred

July 15, 2013

Hey family! pretty hectic week here. I found out last monday night that i was getting transferred. so i packed wednesday and got transferred thursday.

I was able to say a couple good byes, it was good. me and elder olivo formed a good relationship and it was sad to leave. i was really worried/concerned for who his new comp would be. just some parental feelings for my son haha! on wednesday evening we have FHE with wendy, her family and investigators and they slammed my face into whipped cream haha. it was nice.

But now I am in the mt vernon zone, i live in alexandria and the spanish ward here is called old town. I'm serving with elder boucher, from peru. his second language is english and he just learned it out here so lots of spanish ahaha. he's a good guy. he's 25 already done with college there which is cool.

We have a couple investigators who live in a trailor park, very poor circumstances. that's the first time i've really been in one. it just kinda feels like a super long camp out is going on ha...

we have some really solid investigators, one will be getting baptized this saturday. his name is hector and i actually met him last time i came over here for exchanges with elder ochoa. so that was cool, he still remembered me!

That's sad about the change of bishops but i'm sure bishop stoner will do great as well. bishop raff and i really got a long i felt like. when God calls people to certain positions He calls them to succeed not to fail, that's something i've seen also that nothing can stop the work of God, nothing.

everything is going really good here. that's news to me that amanda will be having another girl. in all the pics everyone looks really good. haha. i miss you all!

oh yeah my new apartment has a gym so i'm content! yeah! haha. we are going to be very busy these next couple transfers but it should be fun!

i sure love you all!!!

con amor,

Elder Lifferth
