Dear Family,
This past week has been a CRAZY one again. Elder C. is now home. He went home this past Friday, as well as his past companion Elder H. Elder C. was out for about 16 months and Elder H. for about 9. Elder H. is being sent home for not being within sight and sound of his companion. If he was, he would have been able to stop whatever happened that caused Elder C. to be sent home. Elder H. can come back to Georgia in 6 months if he chooses to do so. Elder C. does not have that option. I'm happy for Elder C. and that he made the right decision.
Okay enough about that. So I have now been transferred to Fort Yargo in the Athens Zone to replace Elder H. I'm now serving with Elder Rogers who has been on his mission just over 18 months. Elder Rogers had only been in Fort Yargo for a week when I got here. We are doing something called whitewashing. This is done there isn't an Elder in the area that was previously there. So, we are here without any investigators because whomever the previous Elders were, they didn't do very much. We are basically starting from scratch. For the past couple of days we have both been trying to get back on our feet, and back to work. I miss Coal Mountain. The ward is like a Utah Ward but in Georgia. It was great while it lasted. Fort Yargo Ward is more like Covington. There are only 100 members that attend sacrament meeting and only 8 in gospel doctrine class and in priesthood quorum. Well, nothing else really happened this week. We are just looking for some new investigators.
Love, Elder Buhler
