So first of all what’s been going on is that Monday after New Year’s everything was closed then the next day I got transferred and then my new area was supposed to have a temple trip this week so our p day isn’t till today (Wednesday). Well our temple trip got canceled for some reason.
Anyways like I said I got transferred again! After only 6 weeks... I’m now almost as close to home as I can get in BARSTOW! Crazy huh? Yep well the area is actually really pretty good. My companion is good. And I don’t even know where to start... baptisms from my last area... they got moved back a week but they are still going to get baptized. My new comp is from up by Sandy Utah and has been out only 6 weeks longer than I have. I’m extremely overwhelmed at the moment also which is probably why you were getting that feeling mom. When I got here there were 3 investigators and pretty much nothing else going on. Since I have been here for the last week I have already invited all 3 of them to get baptized and almost got a couple new investigators. Anyways I don’t have much to tell about my new area yet but I do have a pretty crazy story…
Two Elders in my district were in a car accident last Friday. The driver got spooked by headlights and tried to turn to sharp while going 70 and rolled the car 3 or 4 times and completely totaled the car. They are both ok though. The driver (who wasn’t wearing his seatbelt) got stitches on his ear, and his back is sore and he has some scratches on his face and neck. The passenger has a broken rib and a few scrapes. They are super lucky! The crazy thing is that when they took off their garments when they got back the cuts went to the garment line and they were unscratched under them. It was really crazy to see.
But yeah other than that we have been trying to see less-actives, and tracting a lot and meeting members but I just don’t know what to do and neither does my companion so it’s just stressful. Hopefully we are getting a new investigator tonight. If she is there. Lots of people in Barstow are always gone, or busy, or just flake on us. It’s definitely going to be one of my hardest areas. It makes me miss Rancho, my last comp, my last roommates, my ward... Everything! I do like being in Barstow but I’m just stressed. Well that’s pretty much all I have for this week. Hopefully next email will be better and we will have more stuff to talk about. Love you all tons and miss you!!
