October 9, 2017

Dear Family and Friends, 

This past week has been eventful, I got transferred up to Fremont which was surprising because I hadn't been in Salinas for that long. There are always mixed emotions about transfers, it is sad to leave the wards and investigators that I've been working with but it's also exciting to have a new area with new people. I'll definitely miss serving so close to Monterey, it's one of the most beautiful places in the world. General Conference was awesome as usual and I also got to go up to the Oakland Temple last weekend. That was a great experience and I love that we get the opportunity to go occasionally.

I'm training a new missionary this transfer and so far he's really awesome. I look forward to our time together and being with somebody new will be a new experience for me. I don't have a ton to say, I've just been busy with coming up to a new area and going to a couple of meetings. But I'm excited for this upcoming transfer and have heard a lot of good things about this area. I have 2 past companions that have served here and they have told me about it. So anyways, we'll see how it goes! I miss you all and hope everything is going well back home.
