Subject: I'm getting transferred!

Hello everyone,
Yup, transfer calls came this Saturday and I'm getting transferred to serve in Rapid City! Pretty exciting. I'll be serving with Elder Rigg, who has only been out for 3 months, so it'll be pretty interesting. My new mailing address will be:
Elder William Fitt(duh)
614 Sheridan Lake Dr. #102
Rapid City, SD 57702
or
the mission office's address
2525 West Main Suite #311
Rapid City, SD 57702
Both work. Anyway, its been a good week. We got to visit our regular less-actives and read with them, which is always good. One, Rachel, who I've talked about before...answered the door without any pants on, it was kind of awkward...luckily her shirt was long, but it still was pretty weird, she covered up of course once we got in to teach, but still...
We got to teach Lynn Rouillard(a referral we've been trying to get to church and visit for a while) and her husband Bill finally. It was an awesome lesson and before we even asked them to read the Book of Mormon they were like, man I wanna read this, or something like that...pretty exciting. She wasn't at church because of the flu, sadly, and he works on the weekends, but they should be good for Elder Nelson and his new companion.
Got to do some service this week, helped a less-active guy with his house that he's remodeling. We helped him lay laminate wood flooring, which was pretty fun. We also helped him later on sand baseboards...not so much fun, but its always nice to do service! We also helped a member lady put together a crib, baby changing table and dresser that she bought...she fed us afterwards but dang, those things are confusing, especially when you're crammed in a little apartment, thankfully we brought Elder Moulton along, a senior missionary in the area, and he helped a lot. Directions just don't always cut it...
Other than that the week was kind of slow, Elder Nelson got sick one day so we stayed in so he could rest. But all in all it was a good week. And I'll be in Rapid on thursday, so if you were planning on sending a letter to me, send it to the new address, thanks! I hope everyone is keeping up on their Book of Mormon reading, and their reading from Preach My Gospel! I know that it will bless your lives and as missionary opportunities cross your path you will be more able to accept them and have the Spirit be your guide. Have a great week everyone!
Love,
Elder Fitt
