Dear Family,
So I leave to Mendoza after
church tomorrow and won´t get back to Wednesday so President told me I could
use a half hour and he made me promise that I would at least use a couple to
tell you I am fine and happy!
I absolutely love San Luis
which sounds weird because I am right in the middle of one of the most European
provinces in Argentina. Everyone is white, there are no ascequias (open sewer),
hardly any dogs on the streets, no garbage, I haven´t seen any robings yet,
and only one dead animal on the side of the street. I live in the middle of
centro, like outside my door is a Peruvian farmers market and the giant screen
that the government puts up for the Mundial. You think I am kidding but look at
the pictures!
It also feels like a European
mission. We were at a bus stop and the first person I tried to talk to
took my Mormon.org card from my hand crumpled it up and threw it on the ground
and walked to the back of the group of people. Not a single person let us in
their house for my first two days here. But we had three miracle lessons
yesterday and contacted a way good referral from the bishop this morning. I
remember my first week in San Rafael. It sounds rough, but so far I haven´t
minded it. It is so easy to distinguish who wants to listen and who doesn´t. I
honestly haven´t minded it so far. I am really lucky that I have an amazing
companion. We get along really well. The other sisters in my apartment are
hilarious and love to cook. They are both from El Salvador and I love Papusa so
I am happy! And I am working with two of my favorite Elders in the mission in
my ward. They really work, and even though we are all ending soon every single
of us really wants to not only be here but give it everything we got. You
better be excited to read my family letters this week. I can just foresee all
the miracles. OH I am so EXCITED!!!
I love San Luis!
I love this work!
I love my life!!
And being the first day of
summer I guess this letter would be incomplete without.... HAGS!!
