Familia Veranitos,
Well my guess was correct... I had changes and I am now I’m a new area. I am now serving in the same zone but in a different area. My area is called Reforma 1 in the Zone Reforma. I kind of felt like this is what was going to happen... Tepatitlán is just super far away from the rest of the zone to be dirijiéndola [directing it]. Elder Jiménez is still there in Tepatitlán serving as Presidente de la Rama. I love Elder Jiménez. He is such a great guy... one of my favorite companions (it seems like I have been saying that a lot lately).
It was just a really neat experience to be in my first area again... I was only there for 6 weeks but honestly it was really just a privilege to be there. It is kind of funny what everyone always said to me... they always said that I returned to Tepatitlán for something. Well I was talking to Elder Jiménez and we are still trying to figure what that something was! :D I thought that that "something" was going to be harvesting the fruit from the seeds that I planted my first time... but it seems like I went back to Tepa to do some more planting. :) Maybe my farewell talk that I gave... cursed me to be a planter (okay maybe it is more like the Summers' Curse that we have... it's a gift and a curse ;)) but it does seem like I have been a pretty good planter my whole mission. But I'll be honest... I am kind of ready to harvest... okay I am really ready to harvest! I really did enjoy being in Tepatitlán and I am just grateful that I was able to go back... and I did do good work there... on of the best things that I did was reactivate one of my converts that was going through some rough times. She is now going to church with her kids every Sunday! Elder Jiménez assured me that I only went back to Tepatitlán to help him change houses.
So I am in my new area but with a little twist. I am in trio this change. With Elder López and Elder Rodríguez. Elder López is going to be serving as Zone Leader as well and Elder Rodríguez is here with is. We are all in an area that we aren’t familiar with and we are now going to be living with 5 élderes... that’s going to be fun trying to all be ready at 8 for personal study in the morning... only having one bathroom ;) Elder López was serving as leader of the district in our zone and now we are companions... it was kind of funny because we both thought we were going to be companions. It’s going to be fun... a tough change... but we will have a lot of success I am feeling.
Love,
Elder Summers
