  So we got transfer calls again. Can't believe how fast time is flying by! But I'm going to be staying in Hunter South again and Elder Miller is going to be headed to West Jordan. I'm gonna miss that kid. But unfortunately I won't only be covering Hunter South. I'm also picking up and whitewashing a second stake this transfer so instead of covering 5 wards I will now be covering 11 and over twice the amount of area. ( I had to ask him what whitewashing was - I guess it's when both former missionaries transfer out and you pick up the area with fresh missionaries). It'll be interesting to see how it all works out but I'm excited to see how things work out. 

     My new companion's name is Elder Muse. I don't know much about him except that he has only been serving for one transfer, so the same amount of time as Elder Miller. I'm super excited to work with Elder Muse. 

     As far as the week went, it started off with some really bad news. We got a call on Monday from Jose informing us his father passed away and so that meant their family had to go to California to deal with that which was really sad. It meant they had to postpone their wedding. Then Friday they called me and said they got informed they have a three day eviction notice so please keep them in your prayers. 

     But besides that, it was a really good week. We had four Christmas parties so those are always fun to go to. But we had quite a few lessons this week and we are starting to really make some progress with some people. I'm really excited to see what happens this transfer. 

     On Saturday, we got to go down to temple square with Kinzie, who just got baptized in November, and her parents. It was the first time I had been to temple square in a while and Elder Miller's very first time so it was exciting to take him there. The spirit was so strong and I'm really hoping Kinzie's dad was able to feel it and maybe make a change in him. He is such an awesome guy, he just has no interest in anything related to religion but he loves his family so much and one of the videos focuses on God's plan for families and it is amazing. Hopefully he felt something during that but I guess we will see. 

     That's it for this week! Thanks again for all your prayers. Have a great holiday season and continue to look for opportunities to serve!
