So I got transferred. Transfer calls came on Wednesday. I left Fogo on Friday, and arrived in Sao Vicente friday night... My comp got here Saturday morning. And the branch we were in split on Sunday. Hahaha. So It's been alot. Learning area limits.. Relearning area limits. Finding investigators... The area book not actually being kept up. I love white washing!
But other than that it's been pretty nice. Sister Routson and I are comps! We are working in the area of Fernando Po, Mindelo. We found CREAM CHEESE on Saturday! We were quite happy about that.
Leaving Fogo was sad. Tuesday night we were in a lesson with Kaka.. and he said that one of us.. or both of us.. needs to be his madrinha... for his wedding... because he has decided to GET MARRIED!!!! YEAHHHH. Except.. Now I can't be it. Because I'm in Sao Vincente. SAD. Super sad. I miss Fogo.
Also, my recent convert Rute got married on Tuesday! :D To a really strong member of the branch and so now they are just an amazing power couple because they obeyed the law of chastity! :D I was so proud of her. We went over to her house on monday and helped her out with some cakes. man. She had a PAR-TY. We taught, but we swung by in between lessons for some food. :)
Um... What else.. It's rather cold here in Sao Vicente. Actually, the sun is hot. It's windy. and the inside of our 4th floor apartment is pretty cold. I've actually been using a jacket! Weird!
I've walked SO MUCH HERE.. It's an actual city. It has a bus system. But where we work isn't in the city anymore. But it is still just as spread out. The Elders told us that we have an investigator that lives and hour away on foot. I haven't met him yet.. but he wasn't at church on Sunday.
The 2 branches were divided into 3... But there are still only 2 sets of missionaries here. So we have to finish teaching someone in branch 2 and baptize them this week. It's crazy.
Everyone in the mission is supposed to find 10 new investigators and mark baptism dates with them this week.. Basically.. my head might explode.
But I hear a 70 should be coming in a few weeks. yay!
And if you were wondering about the creole. It's different. Way different. I understand it. But it's weird. And the portuguese here sounds different too.
Until next week! Sister Buhler
