Area: Korral Pek, Guatemala
Companion: Elder Sierra
The unexpected happened this week when we received
the call for changes (transfers) Elder Sierra and I both are leaving
Korral Pek to go to different áreas. So, my new área is Sacsuha which is
right by La Tinta my first área. Sacsuha is mostly Q´eqchi´ if not all. Elder Sierra is going to El Estor where there is Little Q´eqchi´. My new companion will be Elder Menjivar
from El Salvador I think. I´ll be able to give you more exact details
after being with my new companion. It feels wierd leaving Korral Pek
because I never thought I would be leaving it so early but it was a
really good time being up in the mountains, and now I return to the
valley.... The unfortanate part is that we´re entering into summer
again, and the summer in the valley is very hot. I have a month or so of
cooler weather left though.
We only worked in our
área for two days this week because while we were going back home
Monday afternoon we got a call from our Zone Leaders to tell us that we
needed to go drop by the capital to fill out some visa stuff for Elder
Sierra so Tuesday in the morning we started our journey there. We slept in the house of the Assistants and then Wednesday
at 3 in the morning we got on a bus to go to the capital, during the
four hour ride we got delayed by an accident in the road for two hours
which wasn´t that enjoyable.
Once in the capital we went to
the imigration office got the paper signed and then returned to the bus
stop where we ate lunch and had the opprotunity to talk to some other
missionaries and I got the opprotunity to show of my Qeqchi badge to
someone. Hehe.
On the way back to Cobán we got delayed two
hours again which made for another very long ride, we then had to get up
really early in the morning again to go back to Chulac and we made it
in time to have our interviews with President Curtiss, tired, but we
made it and the interviews were really great!
The
days we worked were very unexciting, plenty of service though and that
is always an awesome thing to do, even if it´s something Little. We said
farewell to our friends and family in Korral Pek and went to Chulac for
what may be my last time as a missionary there. We´ll see, I may go
back up to the mountains some day but for now I´m returning back into
the valley.
We got mail as well, I got one from
Sister Barnson, 2 from the stake and 2 from Grandma Mary and one from
the Larsens. Good time Reading those.
Well, onward.
Elder North
