I am doing great this week! Transfers happened that was cool, Elder Bird got transferred to English, he is now a zone leader! He is going to do great, he's actually my zone leader, he stayed in Shoreline, in Lake Forest Park. so that happened. My new companion is......(drumroll)....Elder Allmendinger!! Yes you've never heard of him before, he learned sign language for 2 years before his mission so I am basically ASL training him, super stoked for this transfer! He is from Utah, Woods Cross. Oh also Elder Camillo Gois is a district leader! Cool!
In other news, Dhan and Bee are doing great, our communication has been going really really well! I will be practicing a lot with Elder Allmendinger to help him understand our conversations and lessons, both in ASL and gestures so I am excited! Other people, we are still working with Manny and helping him progress! We are going to go see him tomorrow with a brother from our ward! and Floyd too.
Cool story this week, Elder Bird and Elder Camillo Gois had interviews with President Schofield Thursday when he told us what would be happening with transfers and everyone's assignments and stuff and he just said "Elders I just know and I feel very strongly that THIS is what the Lord wants us to do right now" and he started to tear up and it was just another testimony builder of revelation in these latter days. I know President receives revelation to call us where he calls us and we do receive guidance from the Lord in our areas.
Another cool story, Elder Bird and I got to interpret for a play called Built on the Rock in Redmond, about the Book of Mormon, so cool, if you can find it I would recommend it super cool.
Funny story to end the email, Elder Bird and I stood in front of Dhan and Bees apartment for 15 minutes again but this time it was even more infuriating because the window was open but Dhan was looking the other way and drawing, which means he wasn't looking around at all, so I knocked on the glass loud and everything I could but didn't work, finally he glanced to the side and we got his attention, he thought it was hilarious that we were there for so long....gotta love it!
Anyways, I know that this is the Lords work and that we are all just His servants and when we set high expectations and work our hardest to achieve them we can with His support!
Love you all!
-Elder Schoemig
