Transfers on 12/31/14
So transfers are Wednesday and I think my companion will change which is tough because I really like him. He talks really good Spanish, and I have learned a lot from him, so if he goes that will be that I guess. So this Saturday was a little different the others. An elder in the ward went home, so we have been in a trio the whole time since Saturday until transfers on Wednesday. Um that's cool with everything that went on for Christmas and that's not good with you all getting the flu. i think the flu went through everyone, but at least that will be it for the year, hopefully. I liked the Skype. I don't know, I was nervous and I didn't really sleep the night before and with worrying about transfers the next week, it just all piled up on me. I am doing good now. Some days are better then others, but i am doing good. It was good to see all of you guys. I felt bad because I felt like I couldn't really talk with only forty minutes. It was definitely the fastest phone call in my life. I thought I was on there for about ten minutes. I am glad you guys had a good Christmas. I had a good one too. I got some socks and some ties from the members. Oh, and thanks for the tie and the book you guys sent. That was really cool.
This week with Sergio, I don't know what's up with this guy. The thoughts are still in his head from the excommunicated member. I am getting kinda frustrated because he told my comp that he felt we were pressuring him. My comp said you said you wanted help with this. We are trying to do our best and then you said you wanted to change so we are trying to help. So I don't know what's up. its frustrating. We teach as clear as we can and sometimes I wonder if he is listening or what. Yesterday we did find another investigator and she read the scriptures. She didn't understand much, but she read what we assigned her. The thing is, she is eighteen and has a boyfriend. So the law of chastity is a problem. I don't know, I guess we can help her build her testimony a lot so she will want to obey it.
You didn't really get to ask that may questions on the Skype call. Do you have any? I will try to answer the best I can next week. Thanks for everything.
Love,
Elder Gillies
