Sorry my email this week is late. It turns out that I wasn't staying in Tigard like I thought I was, instead I have been transferred to Hillsboro. Elder Fannin flys home today, it is kind of a sad thing to see him leave. I have loved serving with him, and have learned a lot.
My new companion's name is Elder Davidson. I have only been with him for a day, but I think that we will get along ok. We will have to see how things go, but he seems like a really nice guy.
I was really sad about leaving my last ward, they were so great, and everyone was loving and willing to help when they could. I will really miss some of the people there, and I hope I will be able to go back sometime and see them.
The few people that I have met out here in Hillsboro are pretty nice. Elder Armstrong, who was in my MTC district is in my district out here, and Sister Young, who was also in my MTC district is in the same city, but a different district. It's good to know some of the other missionaries already.
Our house now is in the basement of a member's home. I'm not sure how the mail works with it being a members home yet, but I will find out soon. I also don't know what the address is so please send everything to the mission office, and they will forward it to me.
The area out here has a lot of work going on right now, and I am excited to be able to teach some new investigators. My last area didn't have any. After transfer meeting yesterday, we dropped off my luggage at the house, and then we went right out and started working. We taught a recent convert, and a less active member. We also did some service, and met the WML. Tonight is our first coorelation meeting.
I finally found someone who works at Nike, but the were in my last ward, and I didn't find out intill last Thursday. They did however, say that it I told them the model number that they would get them for me and drop them off. They are such great people to be willing to do that for me.
Also I got tickets to the Columbia employee store, like the Nike one everything is 50% off, so what I'm thinking is this: You go online and look at what they have, then send me money for it, and I can go buy it as a birthday present, or something. The ticket is good until the end of March, so we have a while.
Thats about all for this week, I will have more next week after I have been in the area longer. Hope you guys are doing well. Tell everyone hi for me, and tell Adam congrats on going through the temple.
