Hey Everybody,
So this week was really good, filled with lots of work, it
seemed like everyday was filled with a new adventure. We had a service project
this week cleaning the stake library, our entire district reorganized
everything, it looked as though it hadn't been touched in over 5 years. We found
some super cool things including some Liahona's that date back to 1985.
Then
this week was also had a fundraiser selling food for an investigator that is
going to be married this Friday and then also baptized 2 hours later. We walked
for about 2 hours delivering food to members. Then we also had an activity of
typical plates where people from the ward bought a bunch of food and we ate it
all while listening/dancing to good music. So to contribute I made some
wan-tons stuffed with hot dog and cheese. They turned out really delicious and
were a big hit.
Today was transfers AND I left my area. I got transferred to
an area called "San Berndando" in the zone "Castillo". So
Saturday and Sunday I spent packing and saying good by to everybody. I loved Tumbes a lot and didn't really want to leave. I had 4.5 months up there and it
was awesome. I had a 6 hour bus ride this morning, and I am now just 20 minutes
south of Piura. My new companion is Elder Villegas from Bolivia. He has 21
months in the mission and this is now his fifth transfer in this area, he's been
here for 6 months already. This week is going to be strange, and a lot of work
figuring out my bearings and trying to reaccustom. I am sad because I will be
missing the marriage this Friday, and the baptism that I have been working on
for the last 3 months :(. That's about it for this week, It was super awesome,
sad to leave my area but excited for the future and all that it has in store.
Everyday here is the best day ever!!!
Love,
Elder Luke Gruber
