Dia de combios! I have a new area and a new companion! Her name is Hermana Villanueva and she is from Mexico! I guess President really wants me to be companions with people from Mexico. :) So I am not in a Trio anymore either! We will see how this goes! My area is called Escazu, and that is about all I know... I haven't been there yet, we are still in the office. I did hear there are a lot of Gringos there. It is a wealthier area of San Jose and there is lots of English... I will let you know what it's like next week!
Last
night I got about 2 whole hours of sleep! We stayed up packing forever! Hermana Garner let me go shopping in her closet and I now own 2 new dresses,
2 new shirts, and 6 new skirts. :) My suitcases that didn't have space,
now have even less space... But I have more clothes? :) Lucky me, my
stuff was already half packed, because I live out of my suitcases, so
that was pretty nice. Hopefully my new house has space to do the same...
I said goodbye to Hermana Garner this morning! Sad! And now I am on my
own! My new companion understands a little English, but doesn't speak
much, so this will be fun! Poor sick missionaries, who I can't
understand, who have to call ME when they are sick, ... Hahah no one has died yet, so I must be understanding "enough"!
I am getting better and better every day. :)
I
am sad and happy for changes... I will miss my ward! And our recent converts!
And the investigators I am working with right now! And I will miss their
baptisms and progression! But... I am excited to see a new area and
meet more people and help other people too! So I will let you know how
things go next week! I made Hermana Gallegos promise to send me photos
of our investigators at their baptisms, so that almost counts as being
there!
Happy Halloween!!! I love you all! Have a great week! Sorry for the bum letter with zero information!
Love,
Hermana Markle. :)
