I Thank you for all of your support and love. i have felt it and i do know that Heavenly father has been answering both yours and mine! He will be hearing from me a lot soon because of our calls that we got this morning from president. I'll set up the scenario though: Usually its just hang around the apartment and talk, anxiously waiting for our call from either President Murri or from the Assistants. If the assistants call then you're staying but if president calls then you know you are having some change. So just to break the tension, elder Bennett and me switched their name in our phone from "spanish" to "Pres. murri" so when they called from their phone it would pull up as "pres. murri" calling. So E. bennett called and i answered and He said i was going to ventura to be with elder bradley and then asked if E. ridlon was there. I handed the phone to elder ridlon and he thought it was president! haha he talked for a while and elder bennett did a pretty good job on imitating Pres. murri's voice so ridlon fell for it for like a few minutes then figured it out!! haha so that was pretty funny. We did that around 8 or so but finally we had a call from the "mission office" at 10 so we couldn't really tell if it was president or the assistants. So i answered and it was president. I had a slight relief to my already nervous stomach but president asked if my morning was going well. i told him i was very nervous and he said well that's understandable. "There is going to be a change for you but not a very big one. I am assigning you to be with elder england up in bakersfield stake and you're going to be a district leader over a district of 8! You will be his junior companion zone leader!!" so you're now reading this from one of the newer zone leaders in the mission!! so i'm now a district leader/zone leader in bakersfield stake!! one cool thing is that Elder kimble, my trainer, was in this area before so i'm literally following in his footsteps! So i'm very humbled, excited and a bit nervous!! I found out taht elder batemon (My first trainee) is being transferred up to Delano so that's in my zone!! so i don't know too much about elder england but it'll be a good change! Still stuck in bakersfield but oh well...So ya, i've gotta go pack a bunch and hopefully it won't take a long time because we're going to sonic for happy hour (half off drinks) at 2 so that'll be good! I am a little overwhelmed and not even aware of all that i'm going to have to do but oh well, God put me in this position for a reason and i just have to "come what may and love it! I will miss elder bennett (he's going home 5 weeks early for school) but i'ts been a pretty fun apartment with him! we really bonded! I can't think of anything else but again, thanks for all the support you all have given me. i promise it doesnt go unnoticed! I lov eyou all very much and i send all my love! Tune in for next weeks email when at that time it'll probably sink in of how much stuff i have to do as zone leader hahaha it's all good though! Hakuna Matata!!
love,elder robison
