On Tuesday, we helped our now former ward mission leader with his move to Zoetermeer, after district meeting. We loaded up a bunch of furniture in the mission van and drove it to his new place in Zoetermeer. The following Sunday was his and his family's last in Leiden and they both spoke, during the testimony meeting. I really wonder now how soon we will get a new ward mission leader. Hopefully it will not be too long, it is an important calling after, I think.
The whole week, two people from Facilities Management were busy in the new office, working on moving the walls and installing shelving and other storage. (Whenever one of them spoke over the intercom to be let in at the back, he claimed he was some apostle, I had to laugh).
Wednesday evening, we had ward council and discussed a few important things and some people in need of assistance or extra support. We officially announced the bi-monthly YSA activities to the council, as it is going so well.
On Saturday we did not do that much for p-day, which was fine. In the evening we ate at everyone's favourite Australian-Dutch family in Nieuw Vennep. It was a lot of fun and of course great food. I really hope I can keep visiting them until the end of my mission...
Being without a car is not so bad, the bus system in Leiden is quite manageable. But I will be happy when we drive again, haha. This just gives a taste of how it was for office elders "back in the day". It has already been a while since the necessary application was submitted, so it will not be long before we are on the road again. It has also been hard to continue visiting all of our investigators or other interested people, since we have so little time and travelling takes so much longer.
