On this week's episode of Sister Cale in Columbus-Sister Cale had to pack all of her things and was not particularly surprised when she realized that she had enough office stuff to open a store, Sister Cale got to see Sister Brown before transfer meeting, Sister Cale was told by President Daines that he had put her in three different places for this transfer and he still hadn't decided which one she was going to, and Sister Cale got transferred to Fairborn, Ohio. Hello Dear Ones, Greetings from Fairborn Ohio! Fairborn is actually where the Air Force Base is in Ohio, so in some ways the ward really feels like home. At the very least, having grown up near Hill AFB gives me a good landmark to tell people when they ask where in Utah I'm from. The ward here is super nice and I'm excited to get to know them better. It's some kind of crazy that I got transferred so soon after just being transferred. It makes it hard for me to guess what is going to happen next in my mission life. I've spent six months somewhere and six weeks somewhere, so it's kind of hard to guess what we're looking at next. So Fairborn is pretty awesome and my new companion Sister Wolf is adorable. She's been out for three months now and is a great missionary. Honestly, she's way more put together as a missionary than I was when I was barely done with training. She's really good with people and is a hard worker. She also likes to run, which is awesome. For the sake of full disclosure I have not yet run with her, I have walked in circles as she has run in them. I might decide that I want to try running again sometime, we'll have to see. Sister Wolf is from Yucaipa, California. She is the second oldest of four kids and her older brother is also on a mission right now. He'll have nine months at home before she gets back. (Side note specifically to Ethan-let's try to avoid something like that, deal? We'd have way more than nine months...like your whole mission. Just saying). She loves adventures and Disney and things are great. We're working with some really cool people here. One of the families has a pet wolf named Haven. She's the sweetest thing on the planet...though it is just ever so slightly alarming that she is a wolf. I don't know. It's cool. We're also teaching the coolest family. They are exactly the kind of people that you just would want to be friends with. I think they would be brilliant with the youth in the ward. I want them to be seminary teachers someday. Last night we were actually able to invite two of their sons to read from the Book of Mormon and pray about it and they were able to share their testimonies with their boys about the church. SO COOL. Honestly, my life is like this weird blurry dream and for whatever reason, right now I can't really remember what else has happened this last week. I'll do a better job of keeping track of my golden moments so I can write a much more interesting e-mail next week. The church is true, life is good, God's in charge, and Satan hates you. Love, Jessica
