No Moving Boxes Needed

Yes! I am staying here so no new address. I think I am happy as Lacey is a pretty good area and I like my companion. There is a new sister being trained in my area so it will be nice not to be the youngest. We have not done much "official service" lately. And yes our entire mission gets together for transfer meeting. It will be tomorrow.  It's a fun time. Unfortunately our Seattle  trip to the temple got canceled. We met together as a zone at the church during the Superbowl and went home early. Sounds like it was not much of a game so I am not too bummed I missed it. 

The book bag was expensive but it is really nice. I usually do not carry it around during the day though. I fit everything into my pockets and my companion has a small bag to carry Book of Mormons. That is the nice thing about those small scriptures : they fit in your pocket. I am hoping we can find a baptism this transfer. We are both good missionaries so we should be able to. We just have to find some new people to teach. 

We had Stake Conference last week and our Mission President gave a great talk on Missionary work. He is an amazing man. We are off to a zone lunch at a place called Round Table today. It is nice to hear Bon Bon is doing well and yes I will send her another letter soon. I am also glad Kate is so in tune with the church. When you think about it, nothing matters that you do on earth other than the experiences you have and the things you learn. All other Earthly things are gone when you die. If only everyone thought like that. They would probably want to listen to us. 

We went to Olympia to get bus passes for February. The town is full of liberal hippies and homeless people. It's pretty dirty. Makes Des Moines look pretty nice. I am thinking March 18 for Brazil but we will see with this FBI clearance. My black friend who came here from my district left today for Porto Alegre. Just me and my MTC companion are left in the states from my district. Oh well, I will get there eventually. 

Will
