Next Stop, Maringá: November 11, 2013

11 November 2013
Dear Everyone:

Yes, it will be a 5-week transfer because of Natal (Christmas).

I am being transferred this week to Maringá to the area Mandacaru B. I will be leader de districto still...yeah... but I will be companions with... ELDER B.!!!! Yeah, we are going to baptize the pants off of everyone!!! Yeah!!

CONGRATULATIONS JASON ON THE EAGLE!!!

YEAH DYLAN!!! PARABENS ON THE MISSION CALL!!!

WHOA, DAD SELLING LEGOS....... I’m pretty sure that is one of the signs of the Second Coming!!! Speaking of the Second Coming, here is a photo of what one of the scripture cases that I bought is looking like, I should get it here in a few weeks along with one for my Book of Mormon!!

Lots of photos this week to make up for a shorter letter, one as I said is my scripture case. The others are our big barbecue from last week (1), the death of my shoes (2, 3, 4) now that I decided to finally retire them from active duty, my new sweater and modeling skills (5), and my last division with the secretaries (6)!!






Mom, did you change the chain on the necklace that I gave you all those years ago? I’ve never seen the necklace reach so far down, I guess that’s what happens with a skinny neck!! (Sidebar: when Eldon was 4, he gave me this necklace for Christmas. It was TOTALLY unexpected and something that he told his Dad he wanted to do, not something Dad suggested. I cried, and have worn it almost daily ever since. Summer 2012, the chain broke when I was changing into my swimsuit at the pool, and the chain I replaced it with is about 1” longer.)



Other than that, it was a pretty normal week, no baptisms unfortunately. Next week should have lots of information about my new area! (Also, Elder W. will sleep here in Ouro Branco tonight before he heads HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Love you guys!!
Elder Cummings

From Londrina (old area) to Maringá (new area)

All his areas so far, in order from A to E.

  1. 1. Can you help me with a map like that of Tanner's areas? I'll have to find them first ;-)
    2. That necklace story is SO sweet! I can't believe you wore it for so long! You're my hero!
    3. I can't believe he noticed that the chain was longer! Hello? I guess after twenty years where it lays is etched!
