getting transferred

Well i am getting transferred! I am going to Johnstown!! Not only
Johnstown but Johnstown walk!!! That's right back to a walk area! If I
finish my mission in this area it will make it 10 out of 17 transfers
in a walk area!!! Hahaha walk Elder for life!! My companion is Elder
Duley and I don't know anything about him besides he has only been out
for like 8 months. But I'm pumped. Johnstown is in the Altoona stake
and is in the middle of the mission so I'm excited!

Well leaving beaver on a good note we have an area that we cover
called Hookstown and it is middle of nowhere and we have been tracking
down less-actives out there and we have found 3 part-member families
that want us to come back and share the lessons with them. I drove out
there with a team up the other day and I decided to try an old Book of
Mormon referral she said she didn't want someone to drop off a Book of
Mormon that she would just get one from the library. But that was a
couple months ago so we go out all the way to hookstown just to try
her. And she was so happy to get her own copy because she had to
return the library's copy. Hahaha but she has been studying about the
church for a while and wants the missionaries to come over and teach
her more. She says she really likes what she has studied so far! She
also wants us to start teaching her family! So unfortunately I'm
leaving but I a, leaving Elder Groesbeck with lots of people to teach.
No more drought! Beaver is booming!!

I got to go on exchanges with my boy Elder Bryan and he taught me some
more things on the guitar and we also got to have some bomb lessons
and found some new people for him to teach in his area.

It was hard to say bye to the Beaver Ward. This ward is the best ward
ever! And has become family to me! I have some pictures of the
greatest people I have ever met! And so the pictures below are some
extended family now! Hahaha my adopted family!

Well thanks for all your love and support! I love and miss you all!
Hope your week was great!

Elder Swisher
