Changes with a new assignment

I have now been in this area, El Carmen, for 5 and a half months. That's almost a fourth of my whole mission. I have come to love this place so much. There are so many good people who live here, the small branch has come to be my family, and I have had some of the best experiences of my whole mission here in El Carmen. I have grown so much as a missionary and have had my life changed in so many ways, all while serving here in El Carmen.

Buuuuut you can never stay in 1 area forever, that's the sad thing about the mission... changes (transfers).

I have been transferred and will be leaving El Carmen. My new area is San Francisco in Zona Los Yoses. It's the area of the mission office, I've been called to serve as Assistant to the President. The entire mission had to go to their new areas today but President wanted me to stay here in my area for another week, teaching the new Zone Leader how things are, before I head out to San Francisco.

I wanted to end my mission with an assignment that required me to work hard (like zone leader or district leader) but was not expecting this at all. I still don't know how I feel about it, I've been saying my entire mission that it would be so different and boring to serve in the office and that the life of an Assistant would be way too stressful, but hey... I'll go where He wants me to go, right?

I hope I can do my best in this new calling and be/do what the Lord expects of me. But I sure could use lots of help. Please keep those prayers coming!

Make it a great week and remember who your Captain is!

Keep On Keepin' On...
