Brotherly Bonds and New Beginnings

Hey everyone!!  So this past week was transfer week so I said goodbye to a lot of friends that I've made.  I think a third of the whole mission got transferred so a lot of people left the two zones around here.  I said goodbye to a lot of friends which was pretty unfortunate.  I said goodbye to one of the best companions ever!! 

Elder Bozue taught me so much as a missionary and as a person.  I felt myself grow so much.  He was honestly like a brother to me :) then I said goodbye to Elder Smith

Elder Smith was my old zone leader and easily one of my best friends ever.  I know that we are going to be friends for the rest of days!!  We are super tight.  Elder Smith if you're reading this shout out to you!!  You're the best!! 😂  Those were the people I got pictures with.  I said goodbye to others though as well and all in all I just hope that somewhere down the line I'll get to serve with them again. :) 

I then got my new companion later that day!!  Elder Blum is a super cool guy!!  He's definitely got a deep testimony of the restored gospel and loves being a missionary.  We started meeting families and we went and got things figured out with Sylvia and she's going to get baptized this Saturday!!!  I'm so excited for that!!  This will be my first baptism and I couldn't be more excited for it!!  She has such a deep desire to be baptized and make those covenants with God :)

Then on Sunday we were walking around being missionaries and stuff and we see this husband and wife unloading a moving truck... annnnnnd they were by themselves so we offered our help and they were like, "that would be awesome!"  So we helped them out for a while and talked about what we are and what we do as missionaries and they were just eating it up they were like "man that is so cool!!"  So when we finished up we asked if we could swing by another time and talk to them about what we believe and they were like, "we don't want you to take offense but we aren't looking to be recruited."  So we explained that we have a message for everyone and that it's centered around Christ and they agreed and said that they would hear us out so I'm super excited for that!!  

This week has all in all been a learning curve with new missionaries but it's been super cool to meet new people.  I love you all and I hope all is well with everyone!! :)

Love,

Elder Zeller
