Dear Family,
Well another 1-transfer area.
I'm way sad. I thought for sure there was no way I was leaving and I'm going to
the one area I never would have guessed to go and thought for sure nobody
was even moving there. But I prayed to be happy with whatever happened at
transfers and I'm just going to make the best out of it. I need to start taking pics with everyone in
my 1st transfer in an area because I don't have very many pics with people
again but I will try to get some before I leave - probably tomorrow. I'm going
to Inhamizua which is in between Manga and Dondo but my house is in Manga
still. I will switch houses but they are not too far apart. There are only two
missionaries out there and one is Branch President.. We have to take chapas out
there everyday! I'm going to kill my new comp, Elder Hoffman, (don’t worry - it
just means that this is his last transfer before he goes home.) That
means next transfer another comp. I have never been with a comp. for more than one
transfer. Elder Ostler, my comp right now will not even get a companion. There
is not enough missionaries and I don't think I was expected to move until like
just barely. I think he is just walking with ward missionaries in our area.
This week our
baptism went great. Maria has a way strong testimony and a lot of friends
in the church. I will send pictures.
Well it's going to be a
way crazy week but I'm excited. President is coming for zone conference Friday
and today all the missionaries are going to the beach to bask before
everyone gets transferred. I already have as many areas as a lot of people have
their whole mission now and I'm only in my 5th transfer! I have come to expect
the unexpected and just go with whatever happens. I have to learn my next area
quick because I should show it next transfer. I will tell you all about Inhamizua
next week but I have already walked in that area before and seen their chapel
and stuff. It was a while ago when I was
still in Nampula and we were down here for that conference - I think I already
wrote home about it. Thanks for all your letters.
Love you guys,
Elder Bigelow
