New companion Hermana VegarayChr

December 1, 2015
¡Hola Mamacita!




This week was awesome! Thanksgiving was so great! Since it was a proselyting day, we had to visit people, so of course we visited the members! We basically had about three different thanksgiving dinners. It was so much fun, but painful to the stomach! A lot of things fell through like going to the temple and the baptism, but it's okay. Maricruz's baptism is going to happen, it's just a matter of when. We worked with Karen Pardo on her family history and we were able to get her her grandmother's name for baptism! We can't do her great grandparents though because they were born 109 years ago... So they have to wait a year or get permission from family search... We were so excited though to get her name! Karen got a new job and therefore had to work when we wanted to go to the temple, but that's okay, all the youth are going to the Oakland temple on December 19th to see the lights and do baptisms! I am so jealous! I love that temple! But Nathalia will get to go, so we are very excited!

Haha so I just got the card from Avram that has the wedding date :P now I get it! and that's not funny there's no way he could ever get married on that date unless he waited another year. Lately letters have been taking 2-3 weeks to get here. I'm not sure as to whether it's the mission office holding them longer or just the mail... I don't know. 
So as you know, transfers came up and the sad thing is that the Carmichael sisters told us that they have to move out of Sister Schow's house because she's getting too old!! That's so sad! I got a card from her yesterday, she is so cute! 
Okay, back to transfers, I'm staying in the area! Hna Stout was called to be an SIster Training Leader and she shotgunned the Carmichael area with Hna Torres. It's crazy because Hna Torres was Hna Stout's trainer and the only other companion she's ever had besides me. Haha So they should do great! Well, I'm sorry to say that this time you won't be seeing Hna Burke for Skype. I don't know what I'm going to do without my skyping buddy! Hna Burke is currently living my Dream. She is going back to south sac for her last transfer in the mission. Oh my goodness! I about died! Ever since we've left that place we've always said that we were going to come back to "die" (aka finish off our missions). Haha Hna Clark and I were talking and we are going to shotgun south sac together for our final transfer. We'll see what happens next transfer. My companion is now Hermana Vergaray! We are basically the same person. We have the same amount of siblings who are all the same gender, same ages, and same marital status. In a couple months we will have the same amount of grandbabies in the family. She even has a sister who is 27 and lives in Georgia! How crazy is that!! The only difference that I have found between us so far is 6 inches in height and her dad is from Peru. Well, dad is from Payson. They both start with a P, so they're pretty much the same. Haha just kidding they are other differences, but we are pretty much the same. She is from Washington and she met Shelby Twitchell at institute and I'm pretty sure she also knows Steven, too. She's hitting her 9 month mark this month and yes, she said she talked to you on Facebook before coming out on her mission. Haha we are going to have the best Christmas ever!
Para Siempre Dios esté con Vos

Con Amor,
