Well i got transfered guys!!!!!haha my comp didn't get to email so i thought i would write you and tell you where i am at now. I am in Woodlawn maryland!!!! I am in a zone just above Columbia md. Actually the area that i am in is called Colombia north spanish. My companion's name is Elder Pauda from Mesa, AZ. He only has one transfer in the mission and he doesn't know the area all that well ha we got lost for about an hour after transfers because they were today because there is supposed to be another huge storm so i didn't even get to say goodbye to anyone. They called us at 6 last night and said pack up your leaving tomorrow morning. It was so hard leaving Glen Burnie and it still hasn't sunk in, but walking down crain highway last night for the last time was tuff. It kind of stunk but i did get to say by to Alan at least. But it's weird though we live in just a 2 man apartment just me and him ha it's a little strange but i think it'll be fine. Elder Pauda is way quiet his parents are from mexico but he doesn't know a lick of the espanol.So it's pretty much like i'm training again ha but i'm excited about it. And to make things a little more interesting...............President called me last night and asked me to be the DISTRICT LEADER! so here i am with a whole lot more on my plate right now. I really want to be the best at this Districe leader stuff! We have a branch with about 100 people in espanol!!!!!!! But this area for some reason had 1 baptism last year so we are gonna have to change that up. I don't know my address yet in the apartment ha my comp doesn't know it, he's still a little new at all this but that's alright i just gotta be patient but ya i'm still in the ghetto with the brothas haha they are all in here on the comp next to me so that brings me joy ha  I really am happy and i'm excited for this new experience! I hope you guys have a great week ha pray that we don't get dumped on again!!!! The lord loves us guys and i lvoe you all and everything you do for me in my mission and in my life. Pray that i'll be able to do the DL stuff and that i'll be a good leader. I love you guys so so much. Have a great week and i'll get you guys more info about it all on monday!!!! I love you guys
