20 April 2015 Sakado
Hello!
Another
week has come and gone. This one was a little cold and rainy. But, it's ok!
When the sun does come out I just appreciate it even more.
This
week about the same as last week...I don't have much to report on. Sorry.
Saturday got
crazy though. After kids eikaiwa we went and played soccer with our
investigators and the elders and their friends. It was really fun. I'm really
out of shape though. And I have weak ankles! So I sprained my ankle. No worries
though, I'm fine. It was really fun and quite uneventful compared to what
happened next!
I got
a call from our mission president's wife telling us that we needed to get back
to our apartment and pack immediately.
EMERGENCY
TRANSFER!
Due
to apartment complications we got moved to the next area over. Luckily we are
still allowed to dendō here in Sakado. I am so, so, so, so grateful for that.
Since sisters don't have an apartment now, the sister's area will probably
close next week when we get transfer calls. That makes me so sad. On Sunday I just cried the whole time. I was a mess. The members were
shocked. And no one wants me to go! I'm an honorary member. They were all
trying to think of ways to be able to keep the sisters in Sakado. I hope they
can do it.
While
it's been really sad, I'm looking at it as a blessing in disguise. Usually when
you get transfer calls you only get a few days to say good bye to everyone. I
get over a week! Yay!
Anyways,
we got packed in three hours and then we're at our new apartment by curfew. It
was so fast. And now we are with two other sisters; Sister Ellis and Sister
Nash who I love lots. It's a party...in a tiny cramped apartment.
Nishibori
Shimai has been sick. We haven't seen her in two weeks. Please pray that she
will get better!
Sorry
this is short, we are so busy today! I'm happy. It's great being a missionary -
sometimes not really. But I'm grateful for every day here.
Love
you all!
