Hoi familie!
Another great week on this mission thing! Charles was
baptized, beautiful service, it was pretty cool because he's from Nigeria and
we got all the nigerian members of the ward to participate in the baptismal
service. He was very happy, and it went super smooth, couldn't ask for
anything better!
So funny you know how I've been saying, it's over, I'm
leaving this place.. it's set in stone.. I've been telling that to everyone in
fact, been getting dinner appointments left and right people wanting to say
there goodbyes, just great people.. and.. well.. I'm not quite leaving yet
=P In an unexpected twist my companion is going AP, and so I am staying
in Antwerpen, but for only half the transfer, and then I'll be going back to
Den Haag to be the district leader there.. craziness!!!
I thought I had tied up all the loose-ends here in
Antwerpen, that was my whole focus this transfer, because I knew it was so
strange and crazy that I stayed and Elder Da cruz got transfered, but I guess
there's still some things I need to do and set in motion, and so I'm off to
work, I have the deadline though, and I know what my last city will be..
Antwerpen seriously has become a home to me, I think we might have to spend
just a week in Antwerpen with how many people I want you all to meet! But
it's great, I think this is the most perfect situation for me, be able to stay
a little longer in Antwerpen, and then leave to Den Haag, a city where I only
got 7 weeks in.. couldn't ask for anything better!
Yesterday at the baptism, were watching this film while
Charles and Victor the member who baptized him were changing, and Monique comes
and sits behind me and says "elder Mohrman, give me your hand" and
she then prays for about 5 minutes under her breath, praying that I'll stay in
Antwerpen.. unbelievable.. and now I get a few more weeks, but Sonia is really
happy, they want me to stay til they are baptized which of course would be
great, but I have a couple more weeks with them and others. Too many cool
expriences, but my thoughts our jumbled and so are exprieinces, so I'm going to
have to wait to share these things til next week where I'll be able to see and
talk with you all!!
Things are going really well here, had a great transfer with
Elder Van OverBeek, and the elder who's coming Elder Andrews is in my youngers,
and we have a good bond, so I'm excited! As for my companion in Den
haag.. I have no idea who he is, some newer missionary that i've never seen
before =P ha ha Anyways loves
Your bro, son, and friend
Elder Mohrman
