Hey folks! To start off the email, we got transfer calls on
Sunday; I'm going to Uitkijk! Uitkijk is the largest area in Suriname, the area
boundaries are fairly simple, it's however far you're willing to ride your
bike! It's in the middle of the jungle and quite a ways away from Munder but
that's okay, just another adventure! I'm excited and nervous as this is the
first time I've had to move to a new area, new zone too! As it is in the
jungle, I'm hoping to get some pictures with a sloth and or a monkey at some
point! I'll be with Elder James! Elder Lewis is staying here and he's getting
Elder Hunt, we're doing a straight swap of companions! I will miss Paramaribo
though, but if Uitkijk is where I'm needed then it's to Uitkijk I will go! On a
different note, Kolif (our investigator) came to church again! He loves it! He
was sad to hear how I was leaving but it was made easier when he found out that
Elder Lewis would be staying here. It truly sunk in that I was leaving during
the Sacrament on Sunday, I took the time to reflect on how much I've actually
changed since I've first gotten here; all the things I've had to overcome
mentally and spiritually and I'm proud to say that I feel completely changed
from the person I once was! The Atonement is an amazing thing, not only the
power to be forgiven of sin through repentance but also the means of how we
grow, change and receive the help that we desperately need to make it back to
Heavenly Father. I hope you're all having a wonderful week so far!
Lobi,
Elder Hardy

Love getting pictures from little cousins - a gift that keeps on giving. Makes me smile daily.
