#36: In Madera for Divisions (splits)

This week has been really good!  I have some pictures to send to you this week and I think you will like them! :)

I'm happy to hear about the fun you all had this past week in Vegas!  I'm sure that was a blast to see and talk with everybody!

I find out this Sunday night about transfers...That's the last day of this cycle.  So, I will find out if I have transfers then.  I'm guessing I will go to Chihuahua on Monday with Elder Castro and meet my new companion then.  Should be exciting!  I'm looking forward to it. It's crazy that tomorrow (March 8th) is my 8 month mark!  I think time on my end is flying pretty fast.

I'm emailing really late because we had a Zone meeting in La Junta, so we are back in Guerrero right now.  This Friday and Saturday we were in Madera and I really liked it there!!  I was on divisions (splits-which means he was with a different companion than his usual one) with Elder Nicoll who is an American from Arizona and has been out one less transfer cycle than me, so we were really helping each other.  I really loved our time together because we both worked really hard for the two days we were together.  We both have the same desires to serve the Lord and to be obedient in all things.  I wouldn't mind having a transfer to Madera with him!  The city of Madera is Super SWEET!!!  I like it there!!

I did get the package you sent for my birthday!  Fatástico!!! Muchas Gracias!! (I told him he could open the box and take out most everything, other than the wrapped gifts-he was one happy boy!)
Well dad, I want to wish you a Happy Birthday This Wednesday!!!  I wish I could be there with you but that'll have to wait!!  Enjoy your day!  You deserve it :)  I love you so much.

Love your missionary,
Elder Fowler

This week's scripture is:
