We changed p day to today because we went to the temple! It was a great experience and it was my comp’s first and last time because it closes for 2 years in March! We had Elder and Sister Miner drive us up there to Maryland. We just did an endowment session and checked out the visitors center. We then went to ‘This is the Place’ (the equivalent of Deseret Book here) right down the road and looked at some stuff. I bought one of those transitioning books for returning missionaries hahaha. I love the d.c. temple and am looking forward to see what it will be like after the remodeling.
We got a phone call after the temple and sadly we found out that Elder Ferguson will be going home early on Monday. 
His comp right now is Elder Cardona so I will be in another trio and I’ll be back with Elder Cardona! I was with him in my 2nd trio this past summer! I’ll be in a trio from Monday until the end of this transfer. How many more trios could I possibly be in??
This week has been kinda slow. The words of Daughtry ring so true to me, “the miles are getting longer, it seems, the closer I get to you”. It seems to be slowing down the closer I get to coming home. I’ll make it eventually though.
This past week we met the most mature 10 year old I’ve ever met! His name is Francisco Bonilla and he is so solid! He let us in and told us how he had met with missionaries before and how Christ had established a church and then it fell but it was brought back again. He told how he realized some of his friends do bad things and that he’s been avoiding those friends because he wants to be a better person. This kid is 10!! Yet he acts as if he were 25! He reads everything we ask him to and remembers it all. Plus, he asks good questions too!! He’s so awesome! We’re like his friends so allowed us to come by every day last week ha! We will be seeing him again soon.
Well that’s about all this week. Next Monday I’ll be in a trio and let y’all know how that goes. Have a great week and don’t forget to count your blessings!
