1st Transfer! :(

So I've been transferred from Burzaco! I was NOT expecting it OR hoping for it to be honest haha because I was having such a stinkin blast with my Tongan compa Hermana Toala. I really think we had too much fun together haha Team Timon and Pumba will never be forgotten!

 

I'm going to miss this clan!

 

We walked in the rain all the way home! It was pouring and we were soaked!

 I was in the middle of my prayer Friday morning when the cell phone rang and Hna. Toala literally shook me, screaming "IT`S THE PRESIDENT" (President Thurgood doesn't call unless there is a change) Haha and that was when he told us that he knew we got along good but that the Lord wants other things for us right now haha! I can't argue with revelation! It was super weird saying goodbye to everyone and it felt a little bit like I was leaving home again (no offense) but now I am feeling SO much better. I can tell you right now that I didnt think I needed this change but now I`m starting to see that it`s going to be so good for me! My new compa is the sweetest little dot from CHILE Hermana Diaz, and this is her last transfer in the mission, which means I gotta learn the area pretty quick.

Oh yeah, by the way I´m in Quilmes... Gutierrez A is my area and I can`t tell you how many great things I`ve heard about it! First off,  my new ward is the biggest in the entire mission. Its a little bit more ghetto here haha I love it! I'm going to have to be a little bit more careful in the streets though. (love you mom) All the missionaries say that my area is the best in the mission haha and so I am so super pumped to get started with something new and meet the people here. Hna Diaz says we have quite a few investigators so that makes me happy. I cant wait to meet them. It does make me a little sad to leave Laura and Yonathan just before Laura's baptism, but I might get a chance to go to the temple with them in one year! And I'm going to mantain contact with them throughout the mission. 

My new pension is so cute and nice! And a lot bigger than my last. Hna Diaz is a cute little button who loves everyone haha. 

I cant really remember everything else that happened this week haha other than I got sick on Wednesday, and was trying to refrain from puking the whole bus ride home.. and right when we got home I threw up haha! It was pretty funny. I was sick all of Thursday too, and it wasnt until the night that we realized that it was Thanksgiving! Haha Hna Toala bought me a snickers and we ate some ramennoodles to celebrate. What a feast, eh? :) Haha! 

I'm so grateful that God is in charge of our lives. He knows so much better than us. We cannot see the design he's making right now. We don't recognize the reasons for all the dark moments, or even all the good ones. Someday, He is going to unroll the canvas and explain all the reasons why, and I am sure that we are going to fall on our knees, thanking Him for EVERY part. It gives me peace to know that He is working right now. He is preparing a place for us. He's not resting from everything He already has done, but He's at work. Our lives are in His hands and everything that happens in our lives is to bless us, whether those blessings come now or later. I know that He lives and loves us. I know that there's purpose to this life. I know we are all part of His divine plan.
