Well here goes.
My last transfer.
he feels calm and ready, knees weak, arms are heavy, he's nervous but he's got purpose, his mind is ready. It's time to get the best out of Elder Tate, let's do this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I stay here in my same area (gracias a dios), our two areas are getting sucked together as one big area, about the size of two normal stakes back home. It's gonna be lots of walking and lots of planning our visits so they all stay more or less close together. Elder Peña and Elder Zamora are both going away, and then the house will be quiet, peaceful house of two. That's a rather strange thought for me. HA! And do you remember Elder Graff? My trainee? Sorry , I'm bouncing topics a little, he's going to be a zone leader in Santo Domingo. He got put a zone leader with the same time I had too. He's gonna do great.
Our investigator that was supposed to get baptized this saturday backed out last minute as she gave us some very belated news that she works at a club from time to time, and that they called her back to work and she needs the money. We're gonna keep praying that she can find other work and make these decisions for herself.
I'm really gonna miss Elder Peñá though, he has made me laugh more in these past 6 weeks than any other companion, no scratch that, PERSON I've even gotten to meet. He's taught me to just keep your head up and pass the time doing things like replacing the Dora theme song with domincan slang, talk another hour or so about how much dora is a bad example to today's rising generation. He's got the imagination of a 6 year old with the body of a 35 year old bodyguard. I only wish you all spoke spanish to meet more people like Elder Peña.
I really am feeling content with where I am in the mission, we have a lot of progress on both sides of the area and are hoping to see a few more baptisms and a lot more sun in the next few weeks,
Sorry the letter's short, I'll make up for it by photobombing you with what we've been up to the last few weeks.
Con tierno amor,
Elder Tate!
