Mar 25 2020

(Elder Petersen)

So this week has been very, very interesting starting from last Wednesday. Starting last Wednesday we got the message that all of the Missionaries in our mission have been effectively quarantined in our mission. After that message we had to cancel all of our plans for the days after that and reschedule for us to give our message to them over the phone. After that on Friday our mission president, President Hobbins called us to see if we would be home so that he could talk to my companion Elder Hall. In that discussion Elder Hall found out that he was being sent home due to the fact that he is a type 1 diabetic but was not sure when exactly he would be going home. After that he started to pack up his stuff so it was hectic that night and Saturday. Then on Sunday we had a mission wide zoom call in which all of the Missionaries who would be going home that transfer gave a quick testimony. After the zoom call ended about 10 minutes later President called us and thanked Elder Ward for is testimony but did not say anything about when my companion was supposed to go home, 10 minutes later the Assistants called us and told us that Elder Hall needed to be down in Ogden at the mission home by 9pm. So he finished packing, I packed a three day bag and we went to pick up two other Elders so that I would have a companion to be with until Wednesday when transfers are happening. So we also got our transfer board Sunday night telling us what would be happening and then today they told us that we will be getting a new transfer board Tuesday because we are getting 6 more missionaries then we had previously expected so now I have no idea what Is going to happen in the next week. So that is my week in a short email talk to y'all next week!
