Hi family!
So, I got reassigned to Santa Rosa California because my
visa has apparently not gone through yet. I got the reassignment at lunch today
and was told to email my family. I also got an email that I will forward to mom
and dad that says to not call or try to see where the visa is, because it can
actually slow down the process.
I'm not going to lie, I was a little dissapointed right as I
found out about the reassignment. I've been waiting for six months to go to
Portugal, and it was a little hard to find out that I am going to California.
But I'm doing the Lord's work. My reassignment was also made by an apostle
through the power of God. My testimony and ability to teach will serve the
people well in Santa Rosa!
I am leaving on Tuesday still, but I leave at 9:50 instead
of 8:00. I will probably only get to call home before I leave the airport in
Salt Lake, so unfortunately I won't be able to call multiple times in other
airports. But I might be able to call when I go to Portugal later, so that
could be awesome to call more than once! I don't know how the calling works
yet; I could call anywhere from like 5 AM to 8:30 or something. That's all, I
guess! I know that Santa Rosa is where the Lord needs me. I am ready to teach
and be an effective servant of the Lord wherever I am called. And, I'm not
gonna lie, it might be kind of nice to be able to speak English for a little
while! If you have any questions or whatever, I might be able to hop back on
later, but I'm not sure if they just wanted me to let you know or be able to
respond to the surprise or whatever. Anyway, I love you SOOO much! The gospel
is true! Tchau, or goodbye, I suppose, for now!
Love,
Elder Valentine!
