Another transfer

Well, Josh has apparently been very busy, he hasn't been able to email much the past few weeks. We're expecting a handwritten letter that is on its way and should be able to update more then. For now, Elder Wilcox is being transferred from Dunaujvaros, so Josh will be staying and getting a new companion. I'll update and let you know who the new comp is, etc. when we hear more. Until then, all is well!

Dunaújváros is one of the newest cities in Hungary. It was built in the 1950s along the Danube River next to an already existing village, Dunapentele, during the Industrial Revolution. It was to be the site of the largest iron and steel plants in the country. It was originally named Sztálinváros after the Soviet leader Stalin. In 1956, construction was slowed by an earthquake, a flood, and late in the year, the Hungarian Revolution. On November 26, 1961, after Stalin's death, the city's name was changed to Dunaújváros, or "New City upon Danube". Today, the city is one of Hungary's boomtowns.
