So yes, I did get transferred. I was on the bus
because I went up north to the 4th region (Chile is divided into 12
regions north to south with Santiago being its own little region so 13
in total - Misión Viña del Mar is the 4th and 5th regions). After a 7ish
hour bus ride of scripture study, practices, sleeping and talking, we
arrived in La Serena at 1am. My sector is the 3rd most north in the
entire mission. The Hermanas literally share a border with Antofagasta
and have found those Elders in their sector a few times because the
limit isn't completely clear. I can now see the ocean every day because
my sector is on the crest of the hill, so half of the sector is hill and
the other half is flat.
My new comp is Elder M** from
Lima, Peru. He's great. He has a strong testimony. Especially for only
being a member for 9ish months before starting the mission. We
already have a baptism planned for this Sunday (assuming that she passes
the interview) and 2 more investigatores with baptismal dates. On Sunday I performed my first confirmation on a kid that was baptized 3
weeks ago but then left on vacation before he could be confirmed. That
was a little bit nerve racking. Don't know why but it was...
That's
about all that happened this week. Even though changes are only on
Wednesday it feels like they are the entire week. I am now trying to
learn all of the street names in my sector and learn it by sight as
well. Trying to remember all of the members and who is a leader. Meeting
all of our investigators and less-actives. Basically a lot of work to
do. It's not hard, just takes some time.
So ya, that's my life right now - or at least what's different
