Well well well family and friends, it looks like I will no longer be a Vidor Pirate. We got Transfer calls and I am headed to Port Arthur to be the District Leader. My companion is Elder Baker and he is from Redding California. He came out the same time as me so he is pretty new too. Things are going to be super awesome!
Well this week for some reason we did a ton of Harvey Clean up stuff. We were helping this Lady move out her couches that had been in her house since Harvey hit..... talk about gross haha. But we had got them all out and then we realized they had bed bugs alllllll over them haha so after that we all put our clothes in a bag and took like an hour long shower.....
Then I went on exchanges for the last time with Elder Storey. He was pretty sure he was gunna get transfered so we were almost positive It was the end for us. So it was a party! We got to go help out a guy by putting up some sheet rock for him and helping him fix some leaking pipes in his roof. It was really cold this week in Vidor and so a lot of the homes yet aren't insulated and so pipes are feezing and breaking. The cold is definetly not what Vidor needed. But that took almost all day and then we went out and biked and found some cool people to talk to even though they weren't very interested.
Sunday was my last meeting with the ward. Somehow our bishop figured out that I was getting transfered during sacrament meeting and because of that they called me up to come speak the last 5 minutes or so since the speakers were a little short. But I think it went alright haha! The ward here is crazy awesome and I will miss them a ton! We went and taught one of our investigators and they were pretty bummed that I was headed out but hopefully Elder Jones will get them progressing towards baptism so I can come back next transfer to see the baptism.
Well I am so grateful for the time I got to spend here in Vidor and I really learned so much on how to love other people and I am forever grateful for these people!
Love you all and have a killlllaaaa week!
Elder Cameron Larson
Man, I am super bad at taking pics but I’ll get better in Port Arthur!
Mom’s Questions
What will you miss the most about Elder Jones?
I will miss elder Jones for sure. He and I had such a good time and were laughing and joking around all the time.
What will you miss most about Vidor?
The ward here in Vidor is super awesome so I will miss that. I also will miss being able to help do service here. We did a ton this week for some reason and it was all Harvey Related stuff. We hung some sheet rock and I helped a guy fix a pipe in his attic cuz he wasn't small enough to get to it.
What are you currently studying?
I'm not really studying anything super specific right now. I just base my studies off what we are teaching later that day. But last week I studied a ton about faith so I learned a lot of really cool things about that. I always try to read a conference talk, Preach My Gospel, and the Book of Mormon every day.
