i've been transferred! it's strange to be in a different area. and when i say different, i mean different. it's nothing like brisas here and i'm on the other side of the mission but i'm ready to have the marvelous experiences i know i'll have here. :)
i have a new companion. and she's froooom... CALIFORNIA.
hermana henrikson is from san diego. she's super great! :) two blondies roaming the streets of chena. woo!
it was hard to leave brisas but i know they're in good hands, the Lord's hands. i had the chance to visit a few people before i left and take some pictures so i'll be sending those.
yesterday was my first day here and we visited a sister named silvia. her husband passed away recently. we shared jacob 5:70-75 and talked about our part in the work of the Lord just like the servants in the vineyard. she shared with us that she gave a Book of Mormon to a man in her neighborhood the other day and that they talked about the Holy Ghost and his influence in our lives. this man has a wife and 2 kids and we'll be visiting them this week.
we also visited a sister named ines. she's about 85 years old and her husband also passed away recently. she's studying and preparing to enter the temple to be sealed to him. what a blessing it will be for her.
i'm so excited to be in a new zone, a new area and with a new companion. i know hermana ibañez will be able to direct the area and keep the work going strong in brisas with hermana lesh. i know i wasn't a perfect trainer and that i wasn't expected to be but i learned that it is not "be perfect" it is, "be perfect in loving as Christ does" and i'm working on this. :)
i hope you all have a great week! love, hermana walker
