Tillamook!!

What's up everyone?

Hope you all had a good week! We got transfer calls on Saturday and I am being transferred out of the good old Salem 1st Ward. I am going to miss this place so much. I have been here for almost 7.5 months and have loved every minute. I will be heading up to Tillamook to finish training a new missionary! I am super excited. His name is Elder Alofipo and I have heard he is a beast! Tillamook is a small town where there are more cows than there are people! They make good cheese and ice cream so I'm not complaining about that. Plus, I will be covering a whole bunch of the coast which I'm super excited about as well.

We had exchanges with the Clear Lake Elders this week. I was with Elder Gutierrez from Las Vegas. We had a pretty interesting day! We did a lot of walking around Salem and Keizer. We talked to some pretty crazy people. We had a super interesting lesson with the referral we got named Jill. It was a good lesson, except for the fact that she was high out of her mind on marijuana. That was a little bit of a problem ha ha. It was at a member home, too, so they were a little freaked out!

We had MLC on Wednesday which was really good. It is always great to be trained by President and Sister Tateoka. I love them so much. This time we talked about how we can better bring the Spirit into our lessons. I learned a bunch!

Honestly, other than that, not a whole lot happened this week. Sarah and Jeremy are both doing good and working toward the 16th of February. We had great lessons with both of them this week. I am so glad I had the opportunity to serve the people of Salem and Keizer. It has been such a blast. I am pretty excited to go back out to the sticks. I love the city, but it will be nice for a change. I will put my new address at the end in case you wanna send me mail. :-) Love you guys!
