This week was good. It's near the end of the transfer, but we decided to do some family home evenings at some investigators' houses with the members. It turned out going really well. We just sang hymns and shared a message, and then they got to know the members and feel the Spirit and had a desire to go to church on Sunday. They did end up going. The temple ground opening [ground breaking ceremony] was also good, we watched it online at the church. There were some good talks given, and the area president gave a talk on the parable of the ten virgins and how being a worthy temple holder helps you be one of the 5 prepared virgins, so that was good. We also had a special meeting with some of the friends of [the] mission [president], President Soares, that came to the ground opening at his house. They shared some mission experiences and tips and scriptures; that was super fun and inspiring. Next week will be the last transfer before I go home so that means I need to start thinking souvenirs and making my suitcases light again. Hope everything is good in the states.
Love,
Elder Holcomb
