How is everyone? I hope all is going well, it sounds like you are starting to warm up a little bit up there. We still haven´t started getting colder down here unfortunately. It always seems so hot when we are out working, but it should be cooling down from what I here.
So this week there have been some new elders coming in, and in the first group I didn´t know any of them. But then there was one that came a couple days later than the rest. And his name was Elder Sorenson. I looked at him and he looked somewhat familiar like he could be related to those in Kamas. But then thought that no probably not and I didn´t want to ask if he knew someone, because they never do and it is just awkward. But then I later thought that I should so I asked him if by chance he had some family in Utah. Then he said ya I am from Utah. And then I was like well then do you by chance have some family in Oakley. Ya my uncle is a stake president up there. So that was crazy. So he has been up there a ton, he is from Riverton. And so he knew a ton of the people from hike school. So that was very interesting.
It is really fun being in the offices and actually being able to meet the new Elders and Sisters that come in. I hope I didn´t look that terrified when I got here, but I imagine that I did. So we just try and cheer them up and let them know that within a short while they will be loving every second of it. It is fun to be able to do. I am so thankful for all of what I get to do here in the offices and also just being on a mission. There is no other place in this world where I could have experienced anything near what I am right now.
So this week makes it official. Your now looking at the official Historian, Whooohooo!!! It really isn´t too difficult, I mean the days that transfers happen and new ones get here are a little bit hectic,but other than that it is pretty easy to do. You just have to do a lot of figuring stuff out for people on the computer, because that is what the questions are. There is always something they want done, but they don´t have any idea how to do it. So that is when they come to me and I get to figure it out for them. So that is fun right?
So this week was transfers and I got taken out of the area that I just barely got to know and most of the people in it. So that was a little bit sad to have happen, but I understand that it´s not how I want it, but it is how the Lord does. So I mean I was a little sad at first that I wouldn´t be able to keep visiting these people that I have been for the past six weeks, and also the members that I was just starting to get to know. So that was an area called Godoy Cruz Centro, which is the central part of the city we are in which is Godoy Cruz. And now I will be in an area called Villa del Parque. Which is a ward or branch not sure that is about a half hour bus ride from the offices. So that won´t be quite as convenient as just walking out the door and being right in your area, however it will be just as good and I am going to work hard wherever I am, so it doesn´t really matter. I just have to do my part and show that I am thankful for the opportunities that I have. So anyway I don´t really have many stories to tell today unfortunately. And also no pictures that I haven´t already sent. So sorry for that and hopefully next week I will have something good to share.
But by the way the bible videos that the church is doing on lds.org are great. They really help you to see how these scriptures actually happened. They are good if you ever have the time to watch them, I would highly recommend them. Anyway everything is going well here, I am having a great time and hope that all of you are as well. If you ever want to know about something please let me know because I would be more than happy to answer any questions.
Love you all,
Elder Wheeler
P.S. Mom so for that driver´s license ya just send it to the same place that you send the packages. That will be the quickest way to get it to me. And thanks for doing that by the way. Also I just think of stuff throughout the week on what I may need in a package, so I have some other ideas for ya if you want. I love getting new ties because it is the only thing I get to change about what I am wearing and so i would always love more of those. And also if it is possible that axe gel stuff that I use. I can´t find it anywhere here and they don´t have an equivalent that I have found that works. So if possible that would be great. Rach should know which kind. But I will keep trying stuff and see if I can find some that works down here. The other package has not arrived yet, but I am guessing that it will be here this coming week. I will be sure to let you know when it does. Thanks for everything and let me know if you need anything from me. Love you.
