As you know this week I was called to train and had to make it into Rosario by Wednesday morning to pick up my companion. From La Paz we had to leave at 1 am which was exhilirating and we got to the mission home jsut as everyone was waking up. My old comp and I went up to the Hnas. apartments and it was just so funny how desperately she wanted to know who was going with who and where and everything even thouhg she wasnt even a full time missioanry. The two sisters that ended up coming in were from teh states and from Mexico. I used my didactic skills and knew I would be with the one from the states (because the other hna. would be whitewashing in mi querida Esperanza with an hna that goes home in one transfer. ... and the one from mexico already had 5 months in the field and was training already in her reassigned mission in mexico. wow) But after getting ready we went down to breakfast and we seperated from them. I went in for breakfast with the other missionaries that were trainng and after a small capacitación we finally went to the "transfer mtg." Trainers sit on one side of the room and the newbies on the other and it was crazy thinking back to the what seems like a few short months ago that I was on the other side. AAaaannyways, because youre all dying to know, I was right! My new companion is named Hna. Mueller from Seattle Washington. She served in Richmond Virginia spanish speaking for 2 transfers and only had 6 weeks in the mtc but speaks AWESOME. Wow. Huge blessing. I am literally jsut so excited though. Ha, we ended up having to stay in the mission home until Thursday morning because of bus times to La Paz and even then we were dropped off por la ruta which was a nice little surprise. But, this short week that weve had together was maybe one of the best that Ive had. I cant even describe it. Her humble desires to learn and her awesome attitude despite not understanding everything... something that I couldnt say for myself when I first got here... We're learning together and I love it. Each night I just go to bed amazed and the htings we did and the miracles we saw... and the power of a good attitude and a smile. :)
Know that I am doing well. That I am happy and safe. And that I know with everything that I am that the church is true. That Christ leads and directs it and that He lives and loves us. :)
All my love,
Hna. Morgan
