New Area!


Exciting to Go, but Sad to Leave
This week was great!! :) I was transferred!!! Hahah crazy!! I am up
north now, close to Porto in a city called Aviero. Its sooooooo different. Its really pretty
 and has some really pretty old looking buildings. There are those cool
looking boats and its magical! hahah! We live in our area so we dont
need to walk that far. Yeah!  We have the nicest apartment, it is huge. I have a whole room for all my stuff.  It is just me and companion in the apartment which will be different.
 Also it is more flat and green in this area. It took me three hours to get here on the bus.

 It was wierd traveling by myself.  My new companion is Sister Duke. 
She is so nice and we have been out the same amount of time.  She has
been in this area just one transfer.  They are adding another set of sisters
 to my old apartment, so there will be 6 sisters using one bathroom.  Crazy!

On the way here I passed through Coimbra.WOW it was sooooo beautiful!!!
Okay,I didn't get off and look at anything but I saw it from the bus and it was so cool!!!
 
I am going to miss my WARD!!!!! OHH I am going to miss them!! They
are all so great and helped us so much! I am going to miss all of my recent converts!!!!
 Especially Castro, hahah that guy is so funny!! Haha he told us this
week he is going to hire the fbi to find the three Nephites... :).
He fed us dinner last night to say goodbye. :) He gave me a huge
dictionary but it was so big that I had to leave it :(.

Bela is doing good. We watched the Joseph Smith filme with her this
week. She went back to smoking :(. But she seemed a little bit better.

Jessica and Yolanda ahhh I will miss them. They were too busy to do
 really anything this week...Ahhh Its just sad to think that I might not see
these people again!!  Ohhh I just love them.
 
I am not worried because Sister Carroll has got it all
under control. :) She is going to do great! I am going to miss her
too! She was a great companion and I feel like I learned so much from
her!

We were teaching the Medes Family. It was sad saying goodbye to them. They will be
 baptized soon.  I love how they have great values and are
so united as a family. They still have troubles with
 tithing and the word of wisdom. But they are great.

I am so grateful for the opportunity to serve a mission and watch how
the gospel can bless and change people's lives. I know that God loves all
of us and wants to help us. We are so blessed that we can pray to Him
 anytime that we want. I know that this is the only true church.
