The funny thing? The Gold Hill ward boundaries touch Merlin&#8217;s boundaries. So I&#8217;m not going far, but I will be in a new Zone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>9: This whole email is pretty much going to be about transfers, and the joys of leaving my first area! The first thing that I&#8217;ve noticed about leaving, is that I have stuff to pack all over the apartment. It&#8217;s not even that big, but I just have little things spread out, that I&#8217;ve had to track down and figure out how to best pack them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>8: Another thing that I didn&#8217;t think about is how much stuff I have in my desk. All of the wonderful letters that you guys send to me, I can&#8217;t just throw away, so I got a binder and put all of the other important missionary stuff with the letters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>7: It&#8217;s hard leaving your first area. Saying goodbye, to other missionaries, to ward members, but I get a feeling that I&#8217;ll be back. Maybe not in Gold Hill, but in the central point zone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.berky.org\/family\/wp-content\/uploads\/20181018_153251-866x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2268\" width=\"297\" height=\"351\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.berky.org\/family\/wp-content\/uploads\/20181018_153251-866x1024.jpg 866w, https:\/\/www.berky.org\/family\/wp-content\/uploads\/20181018_153251-254x300.jpg 254w, https:\/\/www.berky.org\/family\/wp-content\/uploads\/20181018_153251-768x908.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.berky.org\/family\/wp-content\/uploads\/20181018_153251-1200x1419.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.berky.org\/family\/wp-content\/uploads\/20181018_153251.jpg 1334w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 297px) 85vw, 297px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>6: We had zone exchanges, which is basically where we get a random companion from the zone and go out in a random area to work for a few hours. It was fun, I went with Elder Anderl to eagle point, and had fun, met some cool people, and found the Eagle point sisters a New person to talk to!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5: So Elder Jeanselme&#8217;s new companion is going to be&#8230;.we don&#8217;t know, he&#8217;s going to be training a new missionary! He&#8217;s excited but scared, it was\u00a0 funny to see his face when he heard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.berky.org\/family\/wp-content\/uploads\/20181019_162400-818x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2267\" width=\"279\" height=\"349\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.berky.org\/family\/wp-content\/uploads\/20181019_162400-818x1024.jpg 818w, https:\/\/www.berky.org\/family\/wp-content\/uploads\/20181019_162400-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.berky.org\/family\/wp-content\/uploads\/20181019_162400-768x961.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.berky.org\/family\/wp-content\/uploads\/20181019_162400-1200x1501.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 279px) 85vw, 279px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>4: I got to\u00a0 plant plenty of peach trees! The church has a welfare farm up here, and they wanted to get some peach trees planted before the winter, and so many volunteers showed up that the planting was done in about 10 minutes! Many hands really do make light work.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3: It was Elder Randall&#8217;s birthday this week, so we stayed the night over at their place. For his birthday his family had sent out a big box of glowsticks and little glowstick accessories. So we had a bit of a mini rave, of the four of us. With no drugs, just some accidentally purchased energy slushies.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.berky.org\/family\/wp-content\/uploads\/20181018_212230-700x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2266\" width=\"249\" height=\"363\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.berky.org\/family\/wp-content\/uploads\/20181018_212230-700x1024.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.berky.org\/family\/wp-content\/uploads\/20181018_212230-205x300.jpg 205w, https:\/\/www.berky.org\/family\/wp-content\/uploads\/20181018_212230-768x1124.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.berky.org\/family\/wp-content\/uploads\/20181018_212230.jpg 854w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 249px) 85vw, 249px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>2: This wack chair scared the crap out of me when I sat down on it. (pic below)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1: As I was reading The Living Christ, and pondering on 2 Corinthians 13:1, I came to the realization that the two or three witnesses that the scripture talks about are these:  Personal Revelation, Ancient Revelation, Modern-day Revelation &#8211; by looking at those all together we can gain a true testimony of Christ and the gospel. So, going off that, I&#8217;m going to issue a challenge, read a scripture, and then ponder on it. Try to connect the dots and find more revelation that God wants you to have.<br>I love you all, and can&#8217;t wait to see what the Lord has in store for me in Merlin, Oregon!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ya Boi<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Elder Berky <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Then IiiiiiIII&#8217;MMMMoving out!
