I hope that you got the last weeks email that I just sent. MOM did
you get an iphone?! because some of the pictures that you sent me
DEFINITELY say "sent from my ipone". Hahahaha. (No I didn't get an iphone, they were Sarah's pictures) Caught
you!
That weekend looks so darn fun. I am so glad that everything turned out
well. I loved the look of all those different french fries. there are
so many potatoes in Peru that I just appreciate potatoes more than ever.
it is soooooo good. When I come home,
what I want is a milkshake, New Pjs, a new toothbrush and clean sheets. I
will be happy with the stuff I have now, but that is definately what I
want for future reference. hahahaha.
So the big news is that YES I am getting transfered. It is so
wierd, because this is my first normal transfer that I have had in my
whole mission. I got flown out of DC a week early, I got swipped out of
Rinconada in an Emergency Transfer, and now I am
leaving Villa del Mar very calmly. Let's be honest though, it isn't
without feeling pretty sad. Firstly, I am leaving Hermana Grow!!!! I am
going to miss her like crazy. She is definately one of my all time
buddies. I have had a blast with her. I will be put
in a trio, probably until the end of my mission. I am going to a place
in the middle of the mission called California. It is pretty cool
becuase it is a pretty rich area that has the mission home in it.
Hermana Marler told me that she would take good care of
me there. My companions will be Hermana Bills (she doesnt have relatives
in Idaho- yes i did already ask her a while ago) and Hermana Calle. I
am excited to get to know them and my new area, but I am devastated to
leave all of my best buddies here in Villa
del Mar. Things are really going well now. Our branch is getting more
and more excited about the work of salvation and is really trying hard
to retain the members that we already have in order to prepare the way
for other new members to come in. I am really
sad to be leaving the temple. I love to watch the progress there. It is a
real delight to see it every day.
President Marler told me himself about my transfer and said that I
was needed in this ward and that I would be a great blessing to my
companions and to the ward which has a really solid member and leader
base. He said that I would be in this place for
the rest of my mission, just tearing it up without limits. I am so
grateful for my wonderful president and his wife. They are seriously
called of God.
I love being a missionary. I am going to miss Villa del Mar like
CRAZY, but am so excited to see what the Lord has in mind for me. Good
luck with jury duty momma!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO GRANDPA, JADYN, AND KYM!
Love you all,
Hermana Christensen
