So...this week was EPIC. I didn't
have time to read your emails...internet time is SUPER expensive
here....soo...I'll read them later. Anyway...this week flew by...kind
of.
On Tuesday
I was in divisions with Hermana Johnson in centro Rio Gallegos. It was a
good day...and a nice break from my companion. President Rogers wasn't
kidding! Haha. I also hit 14 months in the mission...can ya'll believe
it? I sure can't. The time is going by wayyy to fast. We're already half
way through november!! Que LOCO!
On Wednesday
we were at the dentist all day...my comp had to get a root canal last
week and this week they did some other stuff. That night at 6:00PM we met up in the chapel and went to the terminal together...at 8:00PM
we were boarding the bus that took us to Comodoro! It was sooo fun. I
was sitting next to Hermana Garavito but Elder Ramos was in the other
aisle seat across from me (my old zone leader in Trelew) It was the
first time I had seen him since I left Rawson (he's in Calafate now
which is about 3 hours outside of Gallegos) We talked until about 1:30AM
about the mission and remembering good times in Trelew Sur. Hermana
Garavito was also in that zone so she didn't get left out:) Haha. We
only slept a little bit here and there...bus rides are impossible!
We got to Comodoro at about 6:30AM.
We passed through Caleta and it pretty much ripped my heart out...I
almost got off there. I could have made it to Maxi's house in 5 minutes
running. Temptations. Anyway...we went to the mission office...the first
Elder I saw that I recognized was Elder Alvarez...it was soo fun to see
him. Then I saw Hermana Rasmussen, Hermana Zanuttini, Hermana
Tumbaico...I had 7 of my 9 companions there. CRAZY. Haha...it was super
fun. I finally found Hermana Hundley...it was the best reunion EVER. I
love her with all my heart. We just kinda stood there stunned...neither
of us knew what to say so we just hugged each other...from that moment
on we didn't leave each other's sides all day. She's doing really well. I
was happy to talk with her:) Elder Christofferson showed up with
Presidente Gonzalez and Presidente Rogers and their wives at about 10:00AM.
The conference was GREAT...and Elder Christofferson wanted to shake our
hands...you can bet I wont be washing my right hand ever again...it's
my apostle hand. I shouldn't have a hard time with that goal because in
Argentina they rarely have soap anyway! Haha. Crazy Argentines.
We
ate lunch after and then just had the whole day to chill in the church.
It was the BEST. The other missionaries all left before our
zone...which was sad..I cried when Trelew and Puerto Madryn left...and
then again when Caleta Olivia left...but right before getting on the bus
Elder Dunford asked for my agenda he knows my companion and that she's a
little bit hard so he wrote on the front page "you're better than the
whole bunch of them put together old sport" apparently it's a quote from
the great gatsby...but it always makes me feel better during the day
when I see it:)
Have a great week! The church is true...Elder Christofferson said so! I love you all!!
