This Week in West Point:

Hey everyone!!! =) How are you all doing? This last week has been really crazy but really good. So i lived with the Aberdeen Elders, Elder Greico and Lybbert, and last Saturday President Chan called elder greico to tell him that they are going to take the missionaries out of Aberdeen. there are three areas that closed this moves. Aberdeen, Tai Po, and my old area Ma On Shan. Right now there's not enough missionaries to cover every ward and no missionaries are coming in this moves. so alot of crazy stuff is happening. What they want us to do is to oversee the Aberdeen investigators and continue to teach them but they aren't really combining the two areas. They said that it should be back open next moves or the one after that.
Elder Chan also had to move away to Ching Yi. He really didn't want to move and i didn't want him to move but i really like my new companions. haha yes Companion"s". they made West Point into a threesom. My new comps are Elder Lybbert and Elder Lau. Elder Lybbert will help us with the Aberdeen Investigators and stuff and he will also go to church with a member each week down to Aberdeen. He's been out for about 3 months and he's pretty cool. and Elder Lau is amazing. he is from TST Hong Kong and an amazing missionary. He came into the mission with Elder Chan. They are both really cool. so ya a lot of craziness going on. it's going to be pretty busy this moves going back and forth between west point and aberdeen but it'll be way fun.
Last Sunday we had the Why I Believe Fireside for the missionaries going home and i had to translate for the first time. the person that was sitting next to me didn't speak english and there were a few Phillipinas baring their testimony in English and so i had to translate. It was so hard!! It really helped me realise what i need to study and work on. haha it was fun though.
I love and miss you all so much!! I know that This church is true. i know that Joseph Smith really saw Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. I know it with all my heart. I love you all and i'll talk to you next week =)

Love Elder McAllister
