Elder Grandpa Ferrin

Well hello to everyone. I just noticed right now that I have now completed 11 months in the mission. It just goes by really fast. It is good to hear about the car for Brandton and that Andrew is leaving. It is a great experience with lots of miracles to be seen.

Well, this week we were able to have a baptism for one of the daughters of Nelis Lopez, Rebecca, who was baptized 2 weeks ago. We started the week with no one who was going to be baptized. They all had plans for later weeks. But at one point we had four who said yes but ended up with only one by the time the interviews came around. In church we had four people and should all be baptized by the end of the month. But I won´t be around for that.



Today we had changes so I am no longer in the branch, Guanuca. I got moved really far to the other chapel that is in Matagalpa to the branch Matagalpa. My new companion is Elder Gustin and he is from Las Vegas. I get to be one of the Zone Leaders. Elder Barrios is staying in Guanuca with a new missionary, so I get to be a grandpa. And Elder Valle got sent to Puerto Cabezas. So this morning I got up at 5:00 a.m.  and took my bags in a taxi to the other house and that was the change for me. So I don´t need to worry about the lizard on the door either, Mom.  I will have an lunch appointment with the mom of my old lunch appointment.  My area includes most of the smaller areas outside of Matagalpa in parts called Habitat, 3M, Solingalpa, and Quebrada Honda. So we´ll have fun.

Good luck with everything at home. Keep going on and have fun with everything at home. This is His church that is restored and we should do all we can to follow el Evangelio de Jesucristo. Only then will we receive the eternal life. Until next time.

I’ll send you pictures next week.
