Hey everyone sounds like ya'll had a pretty busy week and the week ahead sounds pretty busy too. That's cool, it's better to be busy than bored right? Well I'll just get the big news off my shoulders right now then I can type this thing. Elder Peterson is being transferred to Lisbon area to be a zone leader and I've been called to take his place as District Leader. Oh and I'm TRAINING too. Ha I'm way excited I did not expect either of those things to happen but yeah tomorrow morning I'll go to the office to get my greeny. It feels like just yesterday that I was trained there in Beja. But yeah that's the news with transfers. Oh and Elder Tipton got called to serve out in the Azores with the first kid he trained. He trained him in Beja and had about the same number of transfers as me. I'm really excited it's going to be sick to train in Torres it's a great area with so much potential were going to tear it up with that greeny fire! So we played soccer in Lisbon with about 15 elders today it was way fun. We've been working really hard there in Torres and we're always tired but things are going really good. We got to eat breakfast with Elder Peterson's sister the other morning (she was in Europe and decided to swing by) and she's going to leave for a mission before he gets home so president gave us permission. So right now we're about to go have a sweet BBQ in the house of our zone leaders because Elder Oliveira is leaving tomorrow, (they live with some members) so it will be sick. Then tomorrow morning we'll head to the office and split our separate ways. I love these missionaries they're awesome. They've really helped me grow as a missionary in the last two transfers I've been here. Well I don't know what else to say today. I'm mostly just nervous, anxious, and excited about this transfer. It will be sweet. Tu tens jeito meu! Have fun at Park City I'll be soaking up the sun here in Torres.
Well have a good week everyone.-Elder Lindquist
