We learned yesterday that 3 of our current Elders serving in the area will be transferred out on Wednesday and that two will not be replaced. Also, that the car they are using will be moved to another area. Our one remaining Elder and his new companion, who ever it will be, will be left to cover two huge areas, to include the Post and without a car. We have committed our assistance to them to help them cover this large area by making sure they have transportation up into Grovetown, which is around 10 miles away from their apartment.

Since most of them are leaving we took them bowling this afternoon. We had a good time together. Photos to follow!

We also learned that President Holm has asked that we no longer hold the transfer dinner; so we did not hold it today, rather Elder and Sister Berry, the two of us and one set of Elders all had a New Years' Eve dinner together.

After dinner we went out to Sister Arnett's place for Family Home Evening and watched the movie, "Silent Night". We had a nice time with her. She treated us to Hot Chocolate and a muffin-like sweet bread with butter and jam. Tomorrow is the New Year!
