Hey sweet fam!
Okay so here I am writing to you guys from a cyber in
BRAZIL!!! My sweet new companion (Hermana Ramirez from Peru who is
twenty-two and has about three months in the mission) is in Montevideo signing her
papers. So for today, I will be spending my P-Day with Hermana Aragão
(who is serving here in Brazil)!!! When I was starting out my mission, Hermana
Aragão and I had a very interesting day filled with lots of walking in Fray
Bentos. It´s so fun to be re-united with her for another day! We
will be working together in the afternoon and everyone here speaks Portuguese,
so I am really excited for an interesting adventure!
Well let me just give you a little run down about my
life! As I was leaving Juan Lacaze, some sweet members put on a little
good-bye Family Home Evening and it was so nice! And then, I had to say
good-bye to Hermana Jenkins. It was hard because she was honestly such a
special companion (she is so sweet, is compassionate, and has a deep love for
the gospel), but I know I´ll see her sometime soon and you can bet I´ll be
visiting her frequently in St. George!
And as for my new area...it´s GREAT! I´m working in a
ward (Barrio 6) and the members here are awesome as well! They are so
willing to go out with us to share their testimonies! Also, the people in
Artigas are SUPER friendly. As we contact and such, people are so willing
to talk with us!
I am living in a super big house with Hermana Ramirez and
two other sweet hermanas: Hermana Rivera
from Mexico and Hermana Grundvig from Loveland, COLORADO. Woot
woot! The room where Hermana Ramirez and I are sleeping has a huge hole
in the wall, so at nighttime, it´s basically like we have air conditioning!
And boy, oh boy. My new companion is awesome!
She´s my third companion from Peru and I just love her. She is super
upbeat, is a really great teacher, and is helping me so much with my Spanish!
Well that´s all for now!!! Can´t wait to give you guys
more updates, and just know I am happy and well in my new area. LOVE YOU
ALL SWEET FAM!

P.S. Everyone here drinks something called Guaraná.
It´s super rico and you guys should see if you can find it in the U.S.!
