New Area

I am back in Indianapolis, working with Burmese people. Spend most of my time teaching English and helping member teach citizenship classes. Funny how The Lord worlds. The bishop is immigration attorney so maybe down the road I can ask him what I can do about my situation. My new companion barely speak English; he's from the Philippines. He has been here for approximately 14 months. He is struggling a bit but it's okay. I can handle it. President asked that I help him become a missionary so it's an opportunity to redeem myself in the city. I'm no longer a zone leader; thank goodness. But, sadly I am a district leader for now. We have an Asian district except 1. I will have the sisters email me the picture later today. It's a good place to learn new skills. Teaching English is a lot more difficult than you think! 

So, I was bumped about leaving Terre haute and campus but I know that I was meant to be here. I mean I got to speak Thai while testifying so! Hah impressive right? So there were 2 baptisms prior to me leaving the Haute but this Saturday there's another. Mike Steven; a retired marine. He is so funny. He's about 27 years old and he requested that I give a talk on the Holy Ghost which is a great privilege to me. I miss that place. He also asked if I would share my testimony in person with him and share my reason for being here. I pray and hope that president will allow me to drive down there for the day. 

 

We're carving pumpkins at the Nickolsons' for Halloween. I have known them for quite sometime now but finally get to serve in their ward. Their daughter, Hillary, is a good friend of mine. I'll take pictures and send it to you next Monday. I will send pictures from my last area to you in another email. Ohh I almost forgot, my new address is 8515 red oak ct, Indianapolis Indiana. In case you wonder. I don't need anything though. I'm trying to get rid of stuff actually... Most of the stuff I have will be useless after my mission. 

Anyway, I'm doing good and I'm excited to be here once again. I'm not sure if I will be finishing my mission here or not. I prefer not but that's ok if I do. If I had the choice, I would like to finish my mission at IU(Indiana university) but that's a wish. 

 

Love,
