Wow Time Flies

Here's the drum roll for my next and last companion...Elder Jacobsen. Elder Jacobsen is serving in the Muskegon zone right now with an elder who's going home on the 13th of December. So, the area is going to be whitewashed. He's a diabetic and was trained by Elder Savage. Last transfer I went with him on an exchange in Muskegon North. I sure enjoyed the day there and really look forward to serving my last transfer with him. I don't think there's any other elder in the mission I'd rather serve my last transfer with than him.

Anyway, today Elder Savage will be packing up his bags. He's worked hard his whole mission, and this week was nothing less. It was a great week, though we had a lot of transfer preparation stuff to do. We got our new 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan and already put over 500 miles on it. Tomorrow we have the Christmas broadcast and Monday our transfer week begins. The next week is ZLC and most of my transfer goes home. Then we have the week of Zone Conferences. Then Christmas week. Then a week 5 New Years. Then Transfer Preparations and home! So that's the transfer...it's going to go by fast!

Note from his mom: Chris' birthday is on the 10th. He flies home on January 16th. We are hoping that he will be able to speak in Church on the 20th but will let you all know when it is for sure. Everyone is invited over to the house after the meeting for lunch. Hope to see you then.
