Email from Elder Lofthouse 7/2/13

Transfer calls came on Saturday.   Elder Morales is going to train here in Lindsay!  I'm moving to the next town over, Tulare, with Elder Hancock, so we'll still be in the same district.  It is kind of sad to leave an area after only 6 weeks though. 
Following the usual pattern, since my e-mail last week was long, this one will probably be pretty short.  We've been teaching with members quite a bit this week, which has been great.  There might only be a few strong members here, but they sure are willing to help.  I'm going to miss working with them.
Hopefully I'll be going to Fresno tonight to go to Elder Hernandez's farewell.  The rule is that you have to have an investigator going and have member transportation.  Well, last night, thanks to Elder Morales, we've found both.  M's mom is going to come with us and one of Elder Hernandez's converts (the only person he ever baptized from knocking doors) and his family.  Hopefully it goes through!  I love that Elder and can't wait to see him again!
Church was really full on Sunday.  It was kind of weird, because several of the active families were on vacation and we only had two investigators there.  The rest were either visitors who'd just happened to be in the area that morning, less actives who were coming to church for the first time in months, and one lady who just moved here from Idaho.  It was great to see all those less-actives come out and to see both the English and Spanish sacrament meetings filled up!
Well, I hope you all have a wonderful week!
