bueno. well we had transfers this last week, did not have much time to sleep but that just always makes it the best. so quick story we always do transfers thursday in the morning always always always. so this last wednesday we had called the elders told them that we were going to send them thursday really early if they were leaving the zone. wednesday morning we are leaving the house and the phone rings it is elder ramirez one of the assistants and he asked me if elder fuentes had arrived in our zone. i was super confused because we do not have transfers until the next day but they decided to change it and send all the elders wednesday to there new zones. so now we had to go runnning around the whole city looking for a lost elder, and we found three. but not the one we were looking for haha... so i take all the newbies put them in my house and me and my comp go on splits to find the other elder. i went to the pension.(house where we have lunch) of the elders to tell them they needed to pack and get ready to leave in thirty minutes we get to his house all of his clothes are soacking wet but i just said no importa we shove all his clothes into his bags and send him to santa cruz in a taxi and then i meet with my comp and he had sent the other elder out. as we are getting to leave a member walks up with a elder hah luckily he saw some helpless elder without a comp and three suitcases and decided to help. so that is just one of the miricles i saw that day, it is amazing how much our Heavenly Father cares aboutall of our problems every single one and he helps us out it is the same with janessa and this algebra thing he knows all just dont doubt do your best and he will take care of the rest.
anyway later that night we had to wait until 11.30 to sleep because the elders never showed up at our house. they finally got there we all go to bed set the alarm clock for 4.30a.m. it goes off and while those elders are getting ready to go to the airport, i am calling the member that told us that he could take them to the airport. he doesnt answer and well it is 4 in the morning there is not any taxis at this hour so me and my comp leave in our flip flops, half asleep and just exhausted looking for a taxi. it is funny the mind does not think very well at this hour i am still sure there could have been an easier way to do it. we are just wandering through the streets and we happento run into a taxi just waiting in his car with his lights on, yeah whatver lets go, we return to the house and send the elder on his way now i have like 1 hour to sleep and i go get into my bed. and as soon as i get in someone starts honking. stick my head out the window and it is the member. hah i tell him he is late and what happened. tell him to come back in a half hour when there is more people to send. for the next half hour every five minutes he is honking his horn to ask me where are the missionaries. so yeah it was a strange night. but it all went good we got everyone to there house.and it wasgood.
Other than that i have been thinking alot about all my buddies in the mission i met some people from hammsburg, germany they are members i told them to tell elder thorley or elder tanner hola from bolivia. also i sent a letter to Elder Norton i think it was over a month ago, i sent it straight to his mission i think ahah. also i sent a package to yall. i still dont know if you have gotten it, it has a jersey for dj. and some letters. when is jeff getting married. and how is he doing. really you guys need to help him out so they can get married in the temple, also i am always curios abot everything. yes i got your package thank you very much.. last thing the familia uriona sent me another package with more letters and shoes. hah they are the greatest. they are the baptism i had in Hammacas. with elder baker. but i am loving it some days are hard but it just makes it all the bettter. i pray fro you every day. love ELder Olsen
