Everybody-
So we got transfer calls, I’m staying in Umatilla, and my new companion will be Hermana Correa, she went to Timp. High School, and her parents are from Chile. So it looks like I’ll have my second native speaking companion. Hermana Jackson and I are sad to split, but I think it’s always necessary at some point.
Gustavo and Teresa backed out of the wedding on Tuesday and it was SUPER dramatic. I wrote a list of things that we could do to help us be less stressed. These were our options:
- Go over there and make them get married
- Call the bishop and let him yell at us
- Run away
- Pawn off the drama on our ward mission leader, and remove ourselves from the situation.
We ended up going with option number four although, number three was looking REALLY tempting. I wonder what Disneyland is like this time of year… The thing is they are planning on getting married may tenth, and I think they are actually planning on it. They are making invitations and everything. It seems weird to me, because the longer they wait the more pregnant she gets…
Lots of crazy things happened this week, but one thing that’s great, is Luis is still on date, and shouldn’t be working for at least a couple weeks so we can actually teach him everything before his baptism. HAZZAH!!
Bad news, they aren’t going to be able to operate on him, so he will lose his eyesight. He is also going to move back to Mexico in July. He made sure that he knew there would be a church down there as well.
Naomi we have a new fellowshipper in mind for her, her name is Kassie and she just got baptized by the Elders on Saturday. She’s amazing, and has a super strong testimony of the church, so we are going to use her as our secret weapon, because thus far the members we have brought haven’t really impacted her too much…
Jorge always talks about when he gets baptized. He’s still smoking.
You should all write me, because you never know if my new comp will be mean to me and I’ll have a really hard time. 🙂 Ya.
well I love you all,
Hermana Holladay
