Hola,
Well today is my last day with Hermana Wheatley...lagrima...I am really going to miss her. My new compañera’s name is Hermana Hutchinson. I don’t know very much about her except that she is from New Hampshire (close to Lake Winapasake for those of you who have seen What about Bob), that she is a little bit serious, that she has a beautiful singing voice, and that she speaks spanish very well. I am excited to improve my singing and my spanish. I am also excited because I hear she is a very hard worker and there is much to be done here in Consti! Oh, and she is a vegeterian...I don’t know how she survives here in Chile but I am excited that they will have to start serving us more veggies!
It is so nice to see the fruits of our labor every once in a while! This week we had two different families cry and tell us that our coming to visit them has made their families more united and more peaceful. That was so nice to hear. One of them was the family of Benjamín. We met his mom in a colectivo (a bus-type thing) by some miracle and started to visit them. Benjamín was baptized yesterday and his whole family was crying. Their family has really come together in the last few months that we have been meeting with them.
Well, that is pretty much all of the news of this week! I am going to send some pictures and I hope they actually go through this time! I love you all a lot. I hope that you all remember to count your blessings and reflect on where they come from!
Hermana G
