Wow! I am so pumped for Jordan right now! That is so cool that he is headed off to Birmingham, England! Of course he is going to England, who is surprised by that call? It is going to be such a good experience for him and the call just fits him. Good job bro I am so proud of you! Keep up the good work & ALWAYS REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE! Now is when it gets a little bit tougher, but I know that you are strong and can do it! :)
Well this week I have some news too. I got my first transfer! Haha I have been on my mission almost one year and I am just getting my first transfer. I am going to be leaving Kazakhstan probably on Monday if they can get my Russian Visa figured out and I will be working in a city called Yaraslovl with an Elder Smith. It is only a two man smaller city but has a branch of around 25 members. I really am sad to leave Kazakhstan right now because we have a lot of really good potential and Elder Khusainov and I have been kicking some butt... but if that is where the Lord wants me then that is where I will go. Elder Khusainov and I will have two baptismal dates soon so that is a downer that I am going to miss those baptisms, but oh well. Actually, I was not supposed to get transfered because the transfer was last week, but then President called me and said that he was changing transfers again and that he needed me to leave. He knew that I didn't want to leave and tried to spice it up by telling me that I was going to be a Zone Leader together with Elder Smith and that soon Yaraslovl will be celebrating their 1000th year anniversary as a city. That is all cool, but I will still miss Kazakhstan. On the plus side, it will be a good opportunity to finally get away from my Greenie City and start over. Anyways, GOODBYE KAZAKHSTAN! :( HELLO YARASLOVL :)
We also had the opportunity to attend the first wedding in Kazakhstan since the branch has been started. It was really cool and kind of awkward at the same time.... it doesn't really feel right to be at a wedding on you mission! It was a lot of fun though! The missionaries even preformed at little rap session of Families Can Be Together Forever! Haha it was really fun. There was tons of food and even more people! I have pictures and I will try to send them!
Other than all of that news everything is still the same. Preaching, Teaching, and Searching! The work is great and it is moving along. I hope that I can bring the fire from Kazakhstan to Yaraslovl! :)
Well I love you all! Thanks for the love and support! Remember who you are!
