What a week!! I forgot to
tell you guys last week that we would be having transfers....I left Reducto!!!
I had a feeling that I was going to but we got the call on Tuesday so
we spent all of Tuesday night packing and getting ready to go to the
terminal. We got there at 6 on Wednesday morning and I found out who my
new companion is.........HERMANA AUSTIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She's from
Springville and she was my Hermana Leader before and we already love each other
so so much! It's been such a crazy week!!! We were going crazy in the terminal
when we found out we were companions! She's going home after this transfer and
it's so weird to think that she'll be able to eat good Mexican food and walk on
carpet in 5 weeks!
Our area is Ypacaraí and it's
sooooo cool!!!! It is so huge and we just have the mountains all over in our
area! We went to part of our area the other day and it was an hour and a half
walk....we were literally hiking up into the mountains hahahahaha I love it so
much here!
Here's a fun story of the
week:
There was a HUGE rainstorm on
Thursday night and the next day nobody had power or water but then we got
power back on Friday night but we haven't had water since
Thursday......so we walked a mile yesterday to a member's house to take a
shower using water from their well. We had a couple buckets of water and a cup
:)
Then there's this thing
called the Virgin of Caacupe...Caacupe is a city right by us and people come
from all over to celebrate the Virgin Mary...there's a lot of fanatics and
drunks a crazy people so the missionaries that are in Caacupe have to leave
every year and go to other areas but this year, since we are close, we have to
stay in our house all day today and allllll day tomorrow.......we are
going to have some goooood times!!!! I'm just really pumped about everything
that is happening in my life right now!!!! I love being a
missionary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here's my ponderize
for the week: Ether 12:6 #Faith
Love, Hermana
Nielsen!
