Transferred Away

[Got this short, sweet note today.  Brought tears to my eyes.  Elder Heimuli is no longer in the office working as an Assistant.  He will miss the incredible people there with whom he worked so closely -- people like Elder Breck, Pres. & Sis. Carlson, Gillman & Shaw.  On Monday, Elder Heimuli welcomed his last group of new missionaries to the Indiana Indianapolis Mission!  On Tuesday, he transferred (for his final 7 weeks) to the very first area where he served as a greenie when he arrived in 2015.  He loves the humble people of Columbus.  He loves his companion.  Should be a great way to finish strong!] 

Brother and Sister Heimuli,

I recognize that Elder Heimuli is still in the Mission, but he is now transferred away from our area.  I want you to know that we are going to miss him immensely.  We have thoroughly enjoyed working with him, and I loved playing basketball with him as well.  He always has a smile and is prepared to brighten everyone’s day.  I’ve seen him take command when appropriate, and everyone listens to him.  Here are a few pictures we took before he was transferred.  I hope all is well with you,

Elder Breck
