Hiya everyone!
Predictions have been floating around for a couple of weeks now.
Sister Beck has been in Montrose for seven months so she is obviously
moving and i've only been in Montrose for Four months so there is a
chance of me going but most likely to stay with all the new things
happening in the ward, new missionaries wouldn't stand a chance. They
would have to hit the ground sprinting to catch up with everything
that has been going on in the ward. Lots of changes and adjustments.
We were suppose to get our call on Sunday night, but due to a trip
President had to take the calls were posposed until Monday morning.
Anticipation rose and excitment had to be handled properly.
Sister Beck and I had a breakfast appointment with a member this
morning (we are so loved). We told the family that we were expecting
our moves call and apologized in advance for answering the phone. We
knew they would understand..... Right in the middle of breakfast the
phone rings. It's from the Office which means that one or both of us
is moving to a new area...... excitiment builds up.
I answer "Hello" Elder Costley (Assistant) " Hello Sister Garlock How
are you?" Me : "Oh a bit anxious" Elder " haha Well alright well I
won't let you wait any longer, here is President" President " Hello
Sister Garlock I have a new assignment for you... You will move to
East Kill Bride in the Glasgow area and Serve with Sister Oswald."
Excitment exploded!!!!!!
Couldn't believe that I WAS MOVING I thought for sure Sister Beck
was moving. Sister Beck is staying in Montrose another six weeks.
There you have it. I'll be moving on wednesday down to southern
Scotland! The only things I really know about people in Glasgow is
that they speak faster and they will often tell you "Take a hike!"
haha It shall be quite the adventure and experience with a new
companion and a completely new environment. I'll be in a bus area and
in the city. No more country roads :(
I have really enjoyed my time in Montrose and I feel like I
accomplished what I needed to accomplish. The only thing that is hard
is we have a progressing investigator and Sister Beck and I feel like
he will accept a baptismal date in March. He has been so wonderful to
teach and it's been great to see him move from not interested to
investigator to progressing investigator. However, I don't regret one
moment and I know that Sister Beck will do her best to bring the
gospel's influence in his life.
New people and adventures are waiting for me in Glasgow and boy am I
EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope all is well
Love, Sister Garlock
