week 83: off to Lone Pine

 


Just a corner sign in Mojave

Hey Everyone,


    Transfers came yesterday and I'm out of Cal City, and on to my next area. 

    We had a pretty slow last week in Cal City. We were able to teach Diana again and things are going great with her. Other than that, not a lot happened. We got a call Wednesday night letting us know Elder Bahlmann would be training. I figured I'd be leaving, and Friday I found out I'd be leaving and going to Lone Pine. Lone Pine is a little more in the middle of nowhere than my last area. It's a small town and just a branch but it seems pretty cool.

I'll tell you more about it next week once I actually know a bit about it. 

--Elder Thompson 

Bits and pieces from family phone calls:
Lone Pine is tiny, but there is quite a bit happening here with missionary work!
I'm in a trio...one of the Elders is Elder Busche from American Fork...we went to school together from elementary on, so it's fun to be with someone from home.
I was transferred here because they have found a few new friends that need to be taught in Spanish. So I'll be teaching Spanish, but my comps are English speaking, so we'll be teaching both languages.
We live in a small house. It used to be a hospital on the Indian Reservation so it's an interesting little place. 
The church where we meet up with our district for Sundays/pdays is about an hour away, so we'll be driving quite a bit.
I'm excited to see how things are moving and working here!




We've had a great time together in Cal City!
These elders are some of the best!




you're welcome 


All the bunnies running around here...this is our front yard!
