Week 36 - March 4, 2019

Well, this week was crazy. Last night Elder Allen called me and I found out Im going to be leaving Harlingen to be a new Zone Leader in Mcallen!  My new companion is going to be a kid named Elder Fusco. I just hope God can help me out on this one because this is something entirely new.. this week was honestly just awesome. I don't really know where to start. Jacob and Raelynn got their marriage license and they're going to be married on Friday and baptized on Saturday. I am so sad I won't be there to see that considering that im leaving. Jacob is literally my homie and I will miss teaching him. It has been such a blessing and been the coolest thing to see the change in him. At church he brought elder Evans and I these glass angel statues. He said he won them at the carnival the night before and when he pulled the prize out of the bag it was two angels. He said he knew that it was symbolic of us and told us at church that we were his two "angels" so he each gave us one of those prizes. I can't wait to hold on to that forever. Jessica should also be baptized this Saturday and I'm so excited for her! I'm so sad I'm leaving to mcallen right before they'll be baptized but I know there are opportunities ahead. I'm going to miss my awesome district, the people I had the opportunity to teach, and Also people in my branch who helped us out. I'm thankful that God put these things in my path as a missionary. In Harlingen we accomplished some great things with the help of the lord and because of that our mission president is letting us watch black panther and incredibles 2 as a zone.. Going to be too awesome. The best part is, I know that whether it be good or bad, I know there is so much more in store for me to learn in my next area and throughout the rest of my mission. Oh, a little birdy told me there's a bench press in my next apartment so I'm pretty hyped about that.. Lets hope it's true ;-)
