New area, New Companion, Big City Life
So my worst nightmares were realized, and I was sent away from Hampton to a city about the size of Novato, called Muscatine (or something). The ward here is absolutely amazing, they are super strong and pretty big, and are amazing at befriending investigators. It was actually really strange not having to prepare to teach half the church classes and being involved and having responsibilities in every aspect of the Ward. It is nice, I went to ward council and just nodded my head as they did everything. I still miss Hampton. I loved that little town, it was like being in a little slice of Mexico. And the members had become my family completely, I knew every single one of them and had been their teacher and friend. It was cool, and I miss my young men's class I taught. But they are in good hands, we finally got a young men's president before I left. Muscatine has a lot of potential, and I am really exited to start working here.
I am now a breaker for another missionary. That means I come in right after his trainer and fix all of his bad habits. haha! He doesn't know a lot of Spanish because all the hispanic people here have grown up in Iowa and prefer English. so like always, I have a lot of work ahead of me, but I am still super exited. My companion is a great guy with a good heart. I still miss Hampton a bunch, my old investigators that I had worked so hard with, and being around the actual Mexican culture. The work is going to go so good, I can feel it. There are a lot of good investigators here.
