9 de Julio,
Santiago de estero
Whelp I’m being transferred! Yikes! I’m
literally going from the mas norte parte to the mas south of the mission.
Literally its 12 hours from here (Oran) hahah. Santiago is also the HOTTEST
place you can go hahah but really I’m so excited! Now I will know ALL of the
provincias de la mission! I hear so many great things about Santiago so I am
happy! Can you believe this is my final area! How crazy life is!!! WAY TOO
FAST.
I loved general conference. it was
so good! I loved the spirit I felt and I also loved how they focused mucho in
missionary work Saturday! Mom I
loved the very same talk that you liked! I literally shed a few tears feeling
so grateful for the mission and everything I have learned about the atonement
and I also loved the talk about service on Sunday! I just
felt the spirit so much telling me that what I am doing is good and that
heavenly father is proud of me.
I watched it on Saturday in Spanish and Sunday in English. It was funny literally
all of us gringos were watching it in a closet with a tiny little TV, but man
its just so much better to hear the voices of the speakers it makes it so much
more powerful.
Also Imanol came to conference with
his perfect family and he also came wearing a white shirt and tie and it made
me so so happy. Also in the photos we ate ASADO with this family that I adore.
They are menos activos but have been retuning to church ever since I’ve been
here with Hermana Melo. It has been 4 months since I’ve had asado! I WAS SO
EXCITED. Then, Sunday Tia Maria
came to me crying because she was sad I was leaving. It touched me so much. She
then passed me a small little bag with a new skirt in it. I could just feel her
love so much, but more importantly I felt the love the Savior has for her. That’s
the hard part about transfers. After you served a group of people for a while
your have an amor profundo for them, making it so hard to leave.
I’m sure ill have a whole bunch to
tell about my new area. and yes mom, I am still Hermana Lider. Oh and my new
comp is Hermana Gonzalvez de Brasil!
Have a great week!
Love you all!
Hermana Allen
