SO LONG PARADISE...

Monday, January 6, 2014

Hi family!

This week has been a week of full fledged emotions! I have been transfered! I am going to serve in Torrejon. I am training and whitewashing and I am going to die! But I know the Lord has a plan for all! 

Real quick because I don´t have a lot of time:

1. I practically ran a marathon after missing a bus. straight 45 minutos of sprinting with a backpack in order to make it home on time.

2. I served in a trio with hermana money and christen and had the most fun of my life. I have never laughed so hard.

3. I ate more shrimp.

4. I got hit by a train and left the place of my heart.

5. I said adios to my sweet and most dearest friend Rita.

As you all have heard, I have been transfered. I can´t even begin to describe to you all my feelings! Yesterday was the hardest and most surreal feeling. I am telling you on missions you love people like you NEVER have before! I will forever hold Tenerife in my heart! I can´t BELIEVE that I was lucky enough to live there for almost 6 months and I can´t believe that that time is now over! I literally can´t believe it! But I guess that is just what missions are about. Learning to love! Stretching yourself in ways that you never thought were possible. Stepping out of your comforts. Giving your allll. And in return feeling joy. Missions are so cool. If I could I would force everyone that I know to serve one! I can´t begin to tell you how much it has changed my life forever. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to get to know SO many incredible people en las canarias. We received the transfer call on Saturday night. I felt like I got hit by a train.  It wasn´t until Sunday during the first hymn "Because I Have Been Given Much I Too Must Give" that it really became real. I could not stop crying! I felt so blessed to have been able to serve there and I couldn´t believe that I was going to be leaving a place that has become such a big part of my life. I place that I put everything that I had into! My home! But I am telling you it is the weirdest thing because now I feel at peace! Everything is so inspired! Now I am here in Torrejon and I am excited for this next adventure ! I am excited for the new people to grow close to. I am scared out of my mind not going to lie! I feel like a TEEN MOM. In the mission I am one! ha literally! Me and my baby will be a funny sight. But I am excited! I just want to love her and be the best trainer that I can be! I am going to make her my bestie and I can´t wait. 

I LOVE YOU ALL! 

until next week!
