2nd Transfer in Sotero de Rio

So the crazy think about transfers this week: President pulled me aside today and told me that I had been called as the new sister training leader (because one or two were going home this transfer) shoot. I just about died. So pray for me lots alright? I'm excited because I want my companion to get to know lots of new girls which was fun for me when hna altamirano was called as a leader and I got to go on exchanges a lot, and I'm super excited to get to see hna A more because I just love her to death but man.... I've got a lot to improve to be a leader, I'm not sure I feel cut out for it but I'm excited for the adventure!!! I'm also really excited to go to the meetings and stuff to learn more in the classes because president knows soooooooo much and every meeting is like suuuuper awesome because I leave feeling like I just learned a ton. Ok I don{t even know how to explain it in english. I was about to break out into chilean. but none of you would understand.... except mal maybe. 

So TIME IS FLLLYYYYYIIIIINNNGGGG in the Mission!!!  AND I have to say... WAY TO GO GERMANY!!! WOOOO HOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! Haha sorry mal...

Well this week was a little crazy. I got super sick and was throwing up and in a ton of pain but I got a blessing and lost a day and a half of work but I'm doing pretty well now, but man it is MISERABLE being sick in the mission. But it helped me realize how grateful I am for the priesthood in my life. Wow. while I was getting my blessing from one of the hermanos in the ward I felt sheer gratitude for the restored gospel. I KNOW like completely KNOW that this is the true church here on the earth and that the priesthood is a real POWER that we have access to here on the earth through priesthood holders. So great. 

Well. I don't have much time because we took forever getting here because it started raining and we had to wade rivers and lakes to get here basically haha but it hasn't been too cold this week up until now!

All in all this week I just was happy, sickness and all. Happy happy happy. I feel so good to be here and so good looking back on these last 11 months realizing that I've learned A LOT. And I have grown up A LOT. I can still be a better missionary. I need to contact more..... I need to do better at a MILLION things but I sure am trying. I'm learning how to count real success instead of feeling bad for what I lack in numbers and idk I'm just happy. I feel so at home here and I LOVE BEING A MISSIONARY. I love it. Wow I cannot believe I only have 7 months left to serve here in this mission but I sure hope I can take advantage of it.

 Well. I have to go. But I love you all and I LOVE hearing from you. This week it was such a treat to open up my email and see so much in my inbox!! Love you all!

Saying goodbye to hna taylor (a roomate in sotero)
I saw abraham (one of my recent converts from pocuro, he came with another hna in the ward to drop off the hnas and their stuff) it was good to see he is doing really well!

Gringas in our "blanket pants" they sell these pants like everywhere in the ferias (flea market type thing) so we bought some and took pics before hna Taylor left to her new sector today. 

saying goodbye to hna jennings and hna fuentes today at transfers (I didn{t have transfers but anyone can go to say goodbye if they ask permission... perks of a small mission)
