Hey everyone!
So another Moves period has come and gone. I can't believe it’s already been 6 weeks! I thought I was going to move this week at Moves Meeting because I have been in Bangna for 4 and half months now and that’s about average for an area. I thought Elder Kongla would stay here and get a new companion but I prophesied wrong! I got a call from the Mission President that I wasn't really expecting. He called me and asked me to be a trainer. That means Elder Kongla is moving after being here for only 6 weeks and I will be here for another 6 weeks. I'm excited though. It will be fun to get a Greenie missionary. It will feel like being a greenie all over again! It will be sad to see my Thai District broken up though. We even went out and made a District shirt together! What we did is we went to a shirt screening place and drew out a pattern for them to put on our shirts and what we did was we drew a picture of 4 sheep, 3 black and 1 white and put our names above the sheep. I was the white one and everyone else was a black sheep. Thai missionaries are rare here and usually there will be only 1 Thai missionary in a district and they usually can’t speak English all that well so it kind of makes them the black sheep. But in my case, I am in a white sheep in a district of black so we had to make a shirt of it! It’s a way cool shirt. I feel like my Thai ability has sky rocketed being in this district. It has helped me be more confident with everything I say. I feel if there is anything I want to say I can say it. Also, my accent has gotten a lot clearer. It’s been a big blessing being in this district. Unfortunately, it’s at an end but it’s OK. It will be fun being a trainer.

Last week we went to Ayuthaya and went sightseeing to the ancient Temples of Thailand. The Temple that is in the pictures is the Temple that Mortal Combat was filmed at. It was really fun!


Things are going well here. We are having fun! I'm excited to get my Greenie tomorrow! It will be fun training him! I love you all and thank you for all your emails and comments and everything! Talk to you next week!
