HELLO?

One last picture with Sister Ereskon

February 24, 2010
Is anyone out there? I haven't received any emails from you all and I don't think my email is working at all. My emails are not sending.   
(We all sent her letters, but for whatever reason, Morgan hasn't received them?  I resent them all to both addresses)

Anyways, I have been transferred to Fajardo and I have a new companion, Sister Barnhurst. She is from West Valley Utah. I really like her. She is very lively and I always feel very relaxed when I am around her. It is interesting to see how different missionary work seems with a new companion and a new perspective. Missionary work seems so much more human. I feel like I can be myself, like I can have a personality. It is so wonderful.

Our apartment is also quite luxurious. It is probably twice the size of the old one and it has a WASHER AND DRYER!!! That means we save two hours and $4.00 every P-day! and we have an AC unit in the bedroom! We can only use it for an hour a day, but we like to turn it on during nightly planning so that when we’re done, we can go to bed in a nice cool room. It is a nice change to keep from sweating to death every night!

Fajardo is a fun and interesting place. Nearly everyone speaks English. My companion is still learning Spanish (She spent most of her mission on Barbados as well) so she chooses to speak English most of the time. We have a little branch with awesome members. There seems to be more of a push for missionary work here. The branch seems to be much more unified.

I am happy and excited to work here with Sister Barnhurst.

Sorry that my email was not longer. I am having serious problems with my email account.

I hope you are all well and happy. I love and miss you so much!
