Whew... you'll never believe what happened to me this past week... I got transferred... ya... AGAIN!!!
On Thursday night I got a phone call from President Nielson and after asking how I was doing, he told me that I had to have my bags packed and be on one of the first trains out of Wrocław on Monday morning... I was in complete shock. He called at like 10:20 and I couldn't fall asleep till like 3:00 it was insane... one of the biggest shocks of my mission, I was totally hoping to stay in Wrocław at least for 2.5 more months! So now the question you are all asking is "Well where is he going to then?" President told me that I would be going to Warsaw to be an Office Elder!!! Which was a shock and also not a shock at the same time. My whole mission people have been predicting the Office in my future because I work really well with computers and can solve lots of problems that come up in the Office. (And in my short couple days here already I have solved plenty of problems and am working on getting everything running and connected right :D ) It makes sense for me to be in the office and I am truly grateful for the opportunity to be around computers again, even if I am just doing mission stuff on them, computers are just that awesome :)
I am currently in a threesome with Elder Torke (he just got told he is going to Poznań in a week) and Elder Darowski (My MTC companion! We are back together about a year after our last time together) We are doing well, we all get along fine, and Elder Torke is almost as excited to get out of the office as I am to come in :) I will also be driving again now! Which is fun. This also means that my second Polish winter will be spent mostly indoors or in a car!!!!!!! Which I will not complain about one tiny bit :D
Being in the office also means that I will be able to get any mail sent to the Mission Office instantly :) which is awesome. Here is the new address for anyone who cares:
Poland Warsaw Mission
Ul. Wiertnicza 135 I Piętro
02-952 Warsaw
Poland
And also the DearElder service still works while we are in Poland, and those all come to the mission office as well :) I am right at the hub of everything right now.
We have a couple people we are teaching right now, and we actually get member referrals here so it should be awesome. I will start to talk about them more after I have actually met them and kinda get my feet set in Warsaw. If I am here as long as normal Office Elders are, I should be here till about May or June. Did I mention I am looking forward to a Winter indoors!!!
I uploaded a couple pictures the other day and they should be on the website if you would like to check them out.

Everything is going good :) Looking forward to Christmas here in a couple weeks, should be great. I hope everyone is happy and having a good time.
Until Next week

P.S. My P-Day is on Saturday now, only because I am an Office Elder though :) So expect these updates on Saturday now, not on Tuesday :)
