Mission to Paradise: November 30, 2015

Hello!!!

Thanks for all of the birthday wishes! :) It was a GREAT day! :) First, we had a party in the office with Papa John's pizza of course, and I worked a bit there. Then, we worked out in our area for a bit. And then, we went to Hermana Ruth's house in the night time, and she threw me a surprise party!!! :) There were several members there, and the Elders, and an amazing looking cake and yummy treats! They love me too much! :) But I still decided that I am still only 23 years old. :) Maybe next year I will turn 24... We will see..

Oh yeah! We also had a great Thanksgiving dinner with Colby and his family! This was just the week of parties! Lucky us! :) We spoke a whole lot of English, so it felt almost like home. ;)

Bad news time.... :( We had transfers....Hermana Martinez is leaving AND Hermana Gividen is leaving... :( And I will miss them! We have had a great time together and I have learned so much from them! On Wednesday I get my new companion... She will be the next nurse! I am pretty sure it will be Hermana Hill, but I will let you know for sure next week. But now I have 4 weeks to hurry and train her how to be a nurse (she is a CNA) and our area of San Fancisco! We will be working in double time to get it all done! Here we go!

Right now we are working a lot with Myriam's mom.. She is awesome! She came to church last week and loved it! And tonight we are taking her to a Family Home Evening with a member family. Should be good. :)

Well I keep running out of time, sorry... But have a great week! Love you all!

Love,

Hermana Markle. :)

We saw a gecko eating its lunch!

Hermana Flores! I am so excited I got to see her again! I didn't think I would, since she is now in the West Mission. We went to the West Mission Office, and got to see two of my old companions - what a blessing!
