Week 30 - Baby on the Way

Dear family,
This week was pretty long, we had some bad numbers and no one showed up for church, not even Carla. She said she wants to wait to go to church until she finishes the Book of Mormon which I told her makes no sense but for now she is not progressing.
This Sunday was transfer day and we were in the church and normally you don't get transfer calls until that night unless someone is going to the islands so they can go to the office to catch their plane. Don't worry, I am not going to the islands but Elder Poston went to the Azores haha. They called us after church and told him to pack his bags and then they told me that I will be staying with the zone leaders while I wait to get my new comp. I will be going to Lisbon on Wednesday to pick up a brand new missionary and I will train and have a kid of my very own haha... and I am also the district leader.
I don't know if I am ready for all of this responsibility but it doesn't matter now I guess. I only have 6 months in the mission and I am training, I hope I don't screw this kid up haha! 
In the mean time, I am with the zone leaders and the Coimbra district and Elder Fox, one of my really good friends from the MTC who just got here and will be serving in the Coimbra zone with me so we are just chilling and telling mission stories! It is way cool to see him. I am super excited and super nervous for this next week but it will go well. I will let you guys know but the kid's name is Elder Reni. I know that the Lord will provide and help me to fulfill my calling but I am still a little nervous haha! That is all for now, thanks for all the love and support! I love and miss you guys!
Love,
Elder Ruggles
