Buenos!
Well, just as quickly as our trio started, our trio is coming to an end this week. But, this time, I'll be moving! We got a call Sunday morning informing us that I am being emergency-transferred to Loudon, TN!! I'm a little sad to be leaving Dalton so abruptly, but I'm excited to see what's in store in Loudon. My new area is just a little southwest of Knoxville, and it's only about 15 minutes away from the mission home. My new companion will be Elder C! I don't know much about him, other than that he is really new to the mission field, he's only been out for about 4 weeks. So, we will be re-opening the area in Loudon, and I also will finish training him. It should be exciting! I'm so glad for the chance to serve in Dalton, I loved it here. But, I'm excited to see what happens next in Loudon!
The other crazy thing from this week was that we got a new bishopric! They released bishop Torres after 7 years, and they called one of the counselors of the stake presidency as the new bishop! We got to hear great testimonies and it was a very spiritual meeting. To top it off, our regular pianist was working, and nobody else in the ward plays, so I was asked to play piano during sacrament meeting! Haha, I only played the melody, but it turned out alright.
My ponderizer this week is Mosiah 8:18 which says, "Thus God has provided a means that man, through faith, might work mighty miracles; therefore he becometh a great benefit to his fellow beings." This last week was a great example of how we can exercise faith to see miracles. This week we kinda got off to a slow start, and we weren't sure if we were gonna be able to meet any of our weekly goals. But, with faith, and a big weekend push, we were able to hit nearly all of our goals, it was awesome. I know that the Lord blessed us with other miracles this week too. Once again, I'm sad to leave Dalton, but I'm also excited to see the miracles that'll come in Loudon! I hope y'all have a great week!
Love,
Elder Mitchell
A couple weeks ago, they helped at a water station
for a local half-marathon.
He said it was really cold!
Last p-day was Halloween, so that night they hung out as a
district, carved pumpkins and played games
The end of the terrific trio!
Saying goodbye to Dalton
