I have had a crazy week this week. I have had many feelings that are hard to describe. We had transfer calls on Saturday and........... I am staying in Yallahs!! I feel so relieved. I really would have been sad i if i would have been transferred my last transfer. I am still the branch president and i am still in Yallahs and i will be here until may 8th. Also this week was my last zone conference and i gave my farewell testimony. It was pretty tough but thank goodness i didn't even shed one tear. that would have been really embarrassing if i would have haha. After Zone Conference we went on a trade off with the zone leaders. I realized how much i loved Yallahs. I got kinda homesick for Yallahs and i was only away for like 2 days haha.
So for the random story of the week. On Friday morning I woke up went to the bathroom got a drink of water started my morning exercise nd i get a phone call. The night before we had made some awesome plans that totally got destroyed on this day. The people on the phone were the Yallahs feed store telling us that the layer hens that we ordered were there and we needed to pick them up as soon as we can. They told us that the hens wouldn't get there until May or June!! I was really happy they were there already but at the same time nobody was ready to pick up and receive their hens. One of the members coops wasn't even transported to their home yet. So i made some phone calls and we got one of the senior missionaries to come help us out. He and the other two missionaries delivered the chickens while me and my companion put forth every effort to transport chicken coops. Well we organized some workers and waited on the truck to come. It never showed up for forever so we called another guy. We finally got a truck to come and we got them moved. The first phone call came at 6:45 am and we finished at about 3:00 pm. Boy did we have to deliver!! But we still met a few people in the process who said they wouldn't mind having us come over for a lesson. Right after we got changed and went out to teach some people. We had a lesson that was an hour bike ride away!! Elder Mathewson and I had a great night of sleep Friday night.
Well family that is how things have been going. I have been having the time of my life. It is now the final countdown and i am giving it my all. It really is all or nothing. As Lorenzo Snow put it "The kingdom of God or nothing". Have another great week.
Love Elder Stuart
