| Getting ready for Christmas |
Well this week has been absolutely INSANE. Transfer calls came in the other day, and there's been a lot of changes. On Thursday, the other Elders we live with got a call from the mission president. Turns out he got transferred to an island out here called St. Thomas. For his last couple months he will be serving out there and will need to brush up on his French Creole to talk to the Haitians out there. He headed out on Saturday, and we've been in a trio with his companion ever since.

I, however, got my call yesterday, and I'm going to be heading out to be Zone Leader in a place out here called Caguas. It's in the middle part of the island, and it's one of the bigger cities here in Puerto Rico. The rest of my zone is straight campo though. I'll be heading out tomorrow, which means the last couple days I have been saying goodbye to everybody. San Juan is going to be such a hard place to leave. The people here are so awesome, and it's been hard to say goodbye to everyone.

It was for sure a good last week out here. We got together as a zone on Saturday and all headed over to the veterans hospital. We then went to all the rooms singing Christmas carols to everyone that can't be home for Christmas. It was so fun, and really cool to see how happy everyone was. We almost weren't even able to make it in. We all showed up in a huge van, and they told us all we weren't going to fit into the parking garage. We decided to take the risk though and piled as many people into the van as we could to weigh it down as we drove super slowly coming millimeters from scraping the top. By some miracle, we were all able to make it in, and it turned out awesome.

As hard as it's going to be to say goodbye to this area, I'm super excited to head over to Caguas. I'm going to meet some amazing people over there as well, and I can't wait for all of the new things I'm going to learn and cool experiences I'm going to have.
