About time

Sorry for the delay in posts, there seems to have been some problem with the posting service... but it should be fixed now, luckily.

This was a weird week, even for transfer week. For starters, three of the four planned greenies were delayed with visa problems, and then late on Monday, we got an e-mail stating that two of the three would actually be coming, but only on Thursday. So we really had a whole week of transfers, since already on Saturday, we had to go and drop off a visa waiter, Elder Peters, so he could fly to the MTC on Monday. And then Sunday, were transfer calls. Monday, we finalised plans for the week. Tuesday, we met the greenie that did show up on time, a Norwegian. On Wednesday, he got trained and met his trainer and the rest of the mission met each other all over the mission in train stations and the departing missionaries arrived at the office. Thursday, the four departing missionaries left and the two other greenies arrived, and we did the Tuesday thing all over again and the next day we did the new missionary part of Wednesday again. It was long, but not really that bad, since there were only 3 greenies total. 

Yesterday evening, we went to a dinner appointment and I got a belated birthday cake from the members. It was great. I may show a picture of it sometime. We also had a fun time there, playing Phase 10 again.

I now have a very good idea who my next companions are, though nothing is for sure. They will arrive and start their training as office elders towards the end of the month, right during zone trainings. Should be fun.
