Change 5 Week 1

Hey,
As you probably already know, last night me and my companion got robbed and I don't want to make it a big deal because I am just fine. They didn't hurt me or my companion. We had left to go say goodbye to some members after I had packed up all my stuff and when we got back we saw that they had gotten in through the sliding glass doors. They went through my stuff and took my valuable things. I have been thinking about what I lost and I am compiling a small list of things, but i don't want you to worry about me because they are just things. It really sucks and pretty much hurts that I have to lose so much and things that I can't even replace like the pictures, but I will be alright here and I can go without at least until somehow we can figure something out to replace some things. I completely understand if we don't end up replacing certain things because I am learning to live with less and less. It's going to be hard to live on just what the mission gives me, but I will survive. I really wish things like this didn't have to happen, but there is nothing I can do about it but learn from it.
Anyway some news, I got changed and now I am working with another companion from Guatemala. I actually already had met him from a conference that we had earlier this year and although we don't have a lot in common, I'm going to make the best of it. My old companion, Elder Garcia, is training and I'm super excited for him! I hope that soon it will be my turn to be senior companion and I will be the one leading the sector and giving the orders. Anyway, I would love to know what's been going on with you in the States, I can't wait to hear back from everyone!! ELDER WILSON

Just an FYI, 
Kyler called both Shauna and I this morning to let us know what had happened so that we could get things on our end taken care of for him. Shauna contacted the Mission Home and the Mission President as well, to get everything sorted out and to make sure he gets what he needs from them as well. I have talked with both Shauna and Connie about getting what we can replaced for Kyler and getting it sent to him as soon as we can. He sounded good when I talked to him and he just wanted to reassure us that he was just fine and not to worry:) I know he was sad about some of the stuff that was taken, like his pictures and scriptures, but he had such a positive attitude about the situation. He's such a great kid and his strength and positive attitude never ceases to amaze me:)
