You never know...

Sometimes we get to teach the temple prep lessons to those that are preparing to go to the temple. It's really great. If you have the opportunity to go to the temple you should. Right now. Tell it I say "hi".

Also. Got a really neat call the other day. A senior couple, who serve in Tirana, came into contact with a woman that had been taught in Durres. She had been visiting her sister-in-law and had been taught by Motra Wheelock and I. She had only been visiting and both Motra Wheelock and I got transferred out that month so we never knew what happened. There are so many times you talk to people and you never know where it goes. I was really grateful that they took the time to call me and let me know they had come in contact with her. She was excited to be in contact with the church again and I really hope it goes somewhere. Just a testimony to me that this is the Lord's work and He is so aware of each of His children. Plant seeds.

Transfer Madness is fun to do. Its like basketball March Madness but with missionaries instead (where they will go, who will be companions...etc.). Our mission is small enough that you can guess everyone (but its getting bigger, therefore harder). Anyways, in the midst of all the guessing and speculating I keep having dreams that involve transfers! It's crazy. Transfers in our mission happen every 3 months. Sunday night President will call each of us and tell us where we are going and who will be our companion. He likes to keep it a surprise until that night. Its crazy waiting for that call. I'll let you know what happens next week.

This week at church there was a change in the branch president. The previous branch president was an American who works here in Albania and was asked to serve as branch president. He was released and they called one of the members from Lushnje. It is really exciting to see the changes happening here. 

The church is true. The Lord loves you. Missionary work is thebomb.com.

Peace and blessings,

Motra Curtis
