Greeting from la Únion!!! I opened up an area this Thursday called RADIMADI. This place is so beautiful! I’m in love with this place. I’m so glad to serve in this new area it is so green, and sunny! I’m so in LOVE! Haha I’m so HAPPY, it should be illegal! I can’t help but walk around with a big huge smile on my face!

I’ll be honest I didn’t like the way my companion approached people on the street and chased them like a dog pestering the people that didn’t want to listen. I didn’t like these negative feelings, so I prayed that I could understand my companion, or that I could show her how to do it in a loving manner. Heavenly Father answered my prayer as I talked to my companion, and now I understand that she has had many experiences were her perseverance has changed the heart of her street contacts that are now ready for baptism. I’m so thankful for humble prayers. I love my new companion so much! I’m so excited for all the great things that we are going to learn together. Her name is Hermana Maria Navidad Vallejos (haha Marry Christmas) and she is from Perú. My Perúvian companion is doomed to come to Arizona because she has had pure ‘Gringas’ as companions 5 of the 7 are from Arizona. Her trainer was Hermana Kendra Tropple (who is now married).

I’m serving in a little branch and the members are wonderful!! There is a little bit of everything the elderly and babies! The babys are Ricisimo!

Wow My shoes were so broke down!!! Don’t worry I took pictures! We are going to have a funeral for my shoes after lunch with the elderers…. It should be fun! I’m scared because there are 6 funeral companies in my area. I don’t know what that means …but I’m scared. My companion believes that I’m going to kill her here when I send her to her home in 3 months.
