Well, I'm with a new companion. Elder
Pearson from American Fork, Utah! He's a really good guy and we are going
to work hard. It's crazy that he could very well be my last companion.
Our zone had a bunch of changes too. There are now more Hermanas in our
zone than Elders. It
should be a good change!
It is always
exciting the morning of changes! We wake up and start the day as normal, pretending that it isn't killing us not knowing what is going to happen.
Then at about eight o'clock the Assistants call to tell us the
changes. We then call everyone in our zone to let them know. And the rest of the day is bittersweet. We go out and say goodbye to everyone, which is very sad, but there are always very nice things said, and
usually a lot of food! The worst part is that night when we start packing. That's when it hits you the hardest. You might not ever see that place
again. But you are also very excited to see your new area! It's a roller
coaster of emotions. But it's very good because it gives you a great
chance to progress.
Mom, thanks for all the news and updates. I can't believe that the school year is almost over for you guys! Life just keeps going, time
just keeps sliding past. Mom, I'm glad you have so many fun activities planned
for your first graders. And I'm glad Dad's track team is doing so well! I'm
proud of Stefanie for being so pilas. Go Lehi soccer! And that is
the craziest thing I've ever heard that Rylie and Josh have two kids! Congratulations to Nate Hancock, and Amanda McHenry too. She better not get married before I get home! And way to go Trevor
and Haley for your graduations!
This week we have
Zone Conference. Elder Ochoa from the Quorum of the Seventy is coming to talk to us. We
have a meeting with him on Thursday, and then a meeting for leaders of
the mission on Friday. I'm very excited for that.
Well that's all from me this week. I love you all! Keep reading and praying as a family.
-Elder Smith
