Well my days in Calexico have come to an end.....everything went so well this week with the ward and area that I knew I was going to get transferred, the mission comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comforted honestly when you get too comfortable you gotta move.
Last Wednesday we had an activity for the youth and we went caroling and when we got to the first door we looked back and there's like a hugeeee group of members from our ward and youth that were there at the activity and we were so excited!! Sang some joy to the world and we wish you a merry Christmas and had some hot chocolate and cookies it was so awesome the ward is just taking off!!
Thursday we took a trip up to San Diego and had the mission conference with Elder and Sister Clayton. It was super awesome they talked about having "fire in our bones" and how we need to work hard and let that fire of faith burn within us. He also talked about how we need to do the harder things. He said it's easy not to rob a bank but it's harder to be charitable. We all have the potential to accomplish more, to do the harder things!
We have some awesome investigators right now that are coming to church and will be ready for baptism really soon. Sister Castellanos is going to keep the work moving forward in Calexico. I'm so grateful for the opportunity that I've had to serve with her and here in this ward- I have made some amazing friends and have learned so much from the example of the faithful members here.
It's amazing to see how everyone's mission and life experience is tailored perfectly for them individually. I'm excited to see where I'm headed next on my journey!
