Well. I'm not sure where to begin here. I'll start with the sad news I
guess. I'm being transferred! 😰😰 I a super sad but I have had a
feeling it was going to happen. Andover has been the greatest time
ever! The Ward is super awesome and the area is prosperous. I'm going
to seriously miss this place. A lot. But I am being transferred to
Fairmont Minnesota! The very very bottom left corner of the mission
haha it is a tiny branch with few members so it should be great! Elder
Macdonald has been there before because he was in Albert Lea for nine
months which is in the same district as Fairmount. It's going to be an
adventure for sure! And just to add to all the pressure president
decided to make me the district leader there... Flip. Here we go I
guess! My new companion there is Elder Gywnn. Never met him or even
heard of him. Hopefully he is cool.
So some happy news here! The coolest thing happened to us on Sunday!
It was directly after Sacrament and we were just walking around
talking with people. When brother wills grabs elder Macdonald and
brings him to this lady named Alisa. She told him at her and her
boyfriend(who is a member we have never seen before) are getting
married soon and they want to go to the Temple as soon as possible!
But she needs to get baptized first so she said to reach her
everything she needs to know so she can get baptized. It was insane
that never happens to missionaries! So we are going to see her tonight
to get it started! MIRACLE!!! Also another miracle happened. On Friday
we came out of dinner with the Jacobson's and this young couple just
came up to us and starting talking to us(this also almost never
happens) and asked if we wanted to meet to bible study! It was weird
but really cool. And they wanted to meet at a Coffee shop... So we did
and it was real interesting. I guess it was quiet enough but we are
going to see them again tomorrow night. They love God but they don't
get why we need the Book of Mormon. But anyways I am seriously missing
Tally right now! Even though I know it is not near as fun without
Jared, Baylee and me... Love you fam!!! So happy to see you go to
church at tally too! Nice work!
Love,
Elder Long
