So update on the snake story real quick, we caught another Water Moccasin that was much bigger than the one we caught last week... so we decided to kill it and eat it lol. The thing was a scary beast but it tasted pretty good with lots of seasoning.
Transfers were this week, I'm staying here but I get a new companion and he is going to help me with housing, so I'm not a lone ranger anymore and I'm so glad. It's my boy Elder Fualalo! Big Toko and I will be conquering this assignment for sure the next 6 weeks. Me and him were homies before we became comps and now we just are the bestest of friends.
We got to do the same old "Pick up new missionaries" gig which was fun and it so sick talking to these new missionaries about online MTC and PUMPING them UP for the mission.
Highlight of the week: President Amos didnt want to drop off all of the Go-Home missionaries at 4 am then again at 6 am then again at 8 am... so he asked Me and Elder Niepraschk to do it and we were STOKED. So after transfers happened we headed over to the mission home and ate with them and had a testimony meeting with the 12 missionaries going home, and it was SAD. Then the sisters went upstairs to sleep and the Elders stayed downstairs and talked... until it was really late so then we just decided to sleep on the floor at like 2am. Then at 4am I woke up and we were out the door with the first 1/3rd of the returning home missionaries. But then the second wave of missionaries we took, I drove the big van and I was taking Elder Olsen, Sister Reich, and Sister O'Brien home... and they have all been with me in the office since covid started, so we are all so close and they all went home this transfer. They have effected me a lot, and definitely helped me be the best possible missionary I can be, while we also had INSANE amounts of fun. So I was super sad saying goodbye to them. May or may not have shed a tear or two.
Also yeah 2 hurricanes are hitting us this week. So president called me saturday and told me to move all the missionaries from the coast areas and all of new orleans, so we took a little over 50 missionaries and put them in apartments more north, so right now we have 8 Elders living in our apartment and its SOOOO SWEET. Of course I hooked myself up with some sick elders. So we having a good time while we prepare to die in at least one of the hurricanes that are going to hit us.
Anyways I love yall stay sweet out there and remember who you are. Wuv u
