Our congregation split a few years back, and because of that, I've made some of the closest friends I've ever had in the truth. I think this should be viewed as a blessing from Jehovah, because you never know what could result from the move. You're right...you could gain more privileges, which is always a good thing, and you could also have the opportunity to reach ones out in service who maybe didn't have the chance to be reached before. I truly hope everything works out for the best for you. I'm sure it will, though. :)
