Transfers

This week was movecall.
I remember the days so clearly.
The excitement. The nervousness. And mostly, the predictions!
I always guessed where I'd go and who I'd serve with on my mission--I was without fail, wrong.
And yet, next movecall came and there I was taking polls again.
Missions are awesome.
Anyway,
this week was movecall
and like any missionary-minded family...
we made predictions!
Jim, whom might I add has been suffering from the flu (oink, oink if you know what I mean), guessed that
Elder Fultz would go to London as a Zone Leader.
He said everyone else would stay.
I then told him my guesses, with incredible reasoning as to why each missionary I mentioned would definitely leave or had to stay, might I add.
Call it the pain meds or call it inspiration...Jim was spot on in every aspect.
I was wrong, but not shocked.
And in 6 weeks time I'll probably be guessing again...it was fun.
We'll really miss Elder Fultz.
He is a SUPER hard-working missionary and gets things done.
Since being in this area, he has baptized some AWESOME people, including my friend Freydis.
He always eats my food, never complains, and even eats seconds.
One time, he called and asked if he could have a morning lesson in our home. Next thing we know, he's in our kitchen making a full breakfast for our family and the investigator.
How cool is that?
He's leaving this area just like he should...on a high. There are four people set to be baptized in the next month. His replacement is going to love him!
Anyway, he's great and we wish him nothing but the best in London.
