Expectations (paragonare alle realtà)

Transfer calls, everyone totally expects to go into transfer 3 with a
new companion. We all knew Anziano Crowther would leave, and as
normal, me, fresh out of being a greenie, would stay in Lampugnano. I
presumed I would be staying, along with all the members.
Calls for transfers came on the Third, and they tell me our copia
(companionship) is being closed, we have to empty our apartment
because there are no elders coming to replace us.
Anziano Crowther is going to Pordenone, as zone leader, he gets a car,
and he's next to a military base so he gets a real American church,
with a basketball court, carpet and a water fountain. He's really
excited about the car though, because there's not a lot of areas with
cars.
You all probably don't care about that though... You might wonder wear
I'm going... The answer is Padova, or in American English- Padua.
That's about all I know, except I leave tomorrow, and my companion is
Anziano Stoll.
So yeah, that's cool... :) my second city already.
Much of this week we've been packing and cleaning the apartment and
passing food, and investigators, papers, and notes to the other
Anziani.
Yesterday we ate with the Cuba family, to say goodbye kind of, and
when we finish emails we are going to go play basketball with the 15
yr old son,
Other than that this week has been slow, and hard. I did a scambio on
Friday with Anziano skinner, walking forever to pass by an inactive,
that was fun. Um, yeah, we've taught some lessons on the street, but
now that we have to pass everyone, it's been nothing personal... I
don't know? Send me questions if you want to know anything more.
Keep praying, keep singing, and continue to persevere in all, allowing
none to lead you astray!
Remember, scripture study is the most powerful prep for a day!
