Week 71

I can't lie, friends. It's been kind of a poopy week. We made lots of calls and got hung up on a lot and most of our appointments fell through and it's been cold and cloudy. They call it the June gloom.

The most poopy thing of all is that I got transferred. It was funny, I kept saying "I've never heard of anywhere or anyone in this mission* so nothing could be bad news even if I did get transferred."
But the * was that I have heard of one place and one person nonstop this transfer and that's Hermana Mecham's last area/companion. They didn't get along at all. But ya know, I know that God knows that I know what the deal is. And he thinks I can do it. So. It'll be okay. Yeehaw. (Also I'll be driving a 2020 Tacoma which is a giant truck and if you know me well you know that that's just the silliest thing anyone ever did hear.) I literally know 0 people in my new zone so I guess you could say buckle up, kiddos cause my dying transfer will be a whole new world yet again. 

The redeeming quality of this week was that we played morning sports with our district. It was uh, really fun. Also here are many happy pictures to compensate for the bummer attitude of this email.
I'm writing this very early so I haven't actually met my new companion yet or gone to my area. (Oh, my new area is a town called Perris for any of you die-hard fans out there who wanted to know. It'll also be a Spanish ward that we share with 2 other companionships which will never not be crazy to me. So yeah. The ward is Tres Lagos and the town is Perris and the zone is Menifee (my district leader here in Hemet is from Tennessee and he always says Menifee in the same way that you would say Tennessee and it makes me laugh, idk. Cause everyone else says "MENifee" and he says "menifFEE") 

Ok I am pressing send on this email, have a great week kiddies, I love you all bye.

One of the funny parts about being a missionary during COVID is that we have Zone Conference at the church and all the districts are there, but in separate rooms tuning in from their phones. Our district kept having internet problems and having to move around, until we finally found a place where the internet worked. The only problem was they were doing work on the roof so every time we got called on there would be loud construction noises making it impossible to hear/say anything.
