First of all, to avoid the wrath of angry sisters, I want to wish my 15 year old sister a happy birthday! Good job Andi! Im sure you'll outgrow alyssa in no time :) Ill try and be back to get you an extremely belated birthday present from chile. Actually, all of you guys will get brithday/christmas/easter/whatever-gift-giving-holiday presents. Look forward to it!

Things are different. It all starts out the same. We wake up the same. We do our exercises the same. We eat, talk, move, and act the same. But toay is not the same. Because today is the day when Elder Welling leaves the sector and I recieve a new companion. It was a surprise for both of us. Everyone, including me, thought that I was going to leave for my last change. Only Zone Leaders are in our sector. I supposed that I was going to die as one, but as it turns out, God had something even more crazy planned for us. At the change concilio, we found out that Elder Welling, as sad as he was to leave Gabriela and as sad as I was that he was leaving, would be going to San José de Maipo, the most scenic sector in the entire mission. He would also be training.
Then when they got to our zone, they announced a new zone leader, Elder Boyce. I looked at him. He looked like a good kid. He would be a good Zone Leader. Then, instead of announcing my name, they called someone else. Elder Bartlett, the old district leader in Por Venir. I was very confused at that moment. Last night they told me I was staying. I just waited.
"And now, in Gabriela B..." Wait a second... They wouldnt.
"Elder Westover." I stood up, waiting. "will be training for his last change." Everyone made noise. There were only a few trainers this change, and I would be one of them.
This is my last change in the mission, and I will be getting to know my new greenie comp tomorrow when his flight comes in. This is my last change, and I am going to sprint to the finish. I hope my new comp can keep up.
Snap. And everything is different.
Thanks for everything guys! Any requests on Chilean stuff, let me know!
Con Amor,
Elder Westover
