Hello everyone, quite a few changes this transfer...I get to be a district leader and I'M TRAINING a brand new missionary out of online MTC in Utah. Originally assigned to Micronesia, Guam and Seattle. His name is Elder Wilson and I'll pick him up tomorrow morning. It's gonna be a culture shock for sure having his first area be "Samoa" and neither of us speak the language so there will be some struggles for sure. I'll miss Elder Seu, his Samoan magic, our time together has been great. Hopefully we can work some miracles here.
In this last week we had the opportunity to have some very spiritual lessons. People are the best thing out here honestly. Just being apart of their spiritual journey and spending time with families is my favorite part.
A word I like this week is "willing". If my trainee is willing to work, willing to learn and adjust quickly and just run with me we will see miracles. I know that. And the people we are looking for? Are people willing to listen. Willing to do what it takes to come closer to Jesus Christ and seek out answers.
Sometimes I wish I was more willing to just focus on what I'm called to do, and I really want the next few months to be a time I can say that His work was my focus.
Exciting changes, though new and difficult it is going to be good! Love you all, Elder George
