Hola Familia!

Wow a crazy week. Yesterday´s transfer meeting finds me in my 5th area! Yesterday morning we had our transfer meeting and after two transfers in my favorite zone Marcos Paz, I'm out again!

I'm on my way to the poorest zone in the mission, Gonzalez Catán to be Zone Leader with, and this is the crazy part, my old companion Elder Pollock who was my first companion in Parque Leloir! Crazy turn of events for me.

Here´s the best part, the New President (Benton) (whom I´ve never met in person before) after the transfer meeting, sees me standing in the offices waiting for me comp to take a test. Without looking at my plaque he looks me in the eyes and says "Elder Kelly, come in here". He pulled me into his office and shows me the transfer board. He shows me my name next to elder pollocks and told me... a lot of inspiration went into this decision. We prayed very much to make sure you belong there with Elder Pollock again.

It was really a great experience and I really do know there is a reason why I am where I am! Speaking of the new President, he is excellent. It is a very big change from our other president. President Benton is very outgoing and very excited about the work! He said that we are the best mission in the world! Why not!

I really like the excitement and I think it will be hugely beneficial for the mission and will play well to my strengths. I'm sure now the Lord´s purposes are always fulfilled and there are reason´s behind occurrences that we are not always able to see.

I'm going to miss Loma Grande and Marco Paz! Right now I'm with Elder Bracken and Pollock who were both my old companions.

Well I Love you all very much and am praying for you. I hope all is well. I couldn't get pictures sent as my stuff isn't unpacked yet. Hopefully next week!
