So
last week when I emailed you all I told you that I was starting a new
area somewhere with a new companion. I was terrified and finally by 5:15
the missionaries that were down in Texas arrived and my area was the
last to be announced. :/ They announced that my companion is Sister
Moulding (which shes pretty awesome by the way) and then they announced
that we were going to a place called Valencia County which is right next
to Los Lunas. So they gave us our car (no more biking!!!!!! yay!!!!)
and we headed off. It was only 20 minutes away from Albuquerque and we
got there and ites pretty much a farming village!!!!!!! I was super
excited when I saw it. We found our house and we live right next door to
goats, Chickens, and roosters. And our neighbors are super nice they
came up to us and said hi and introduced themselves and they said that
they watch over the missionaries that live here and make sure nothing
bad happens to them. So we feel super safe here. But we go in and the
sisters before us left the place a mess!!!! I was super ticked off and
my anxiety was all over the place to go along with that. But then the
elders called ( we cover the south part they cover the north) and they
said they were heading over to meet us. So then when they got
there because of mission rules they told us to follow us to the church.
Once we got there I asked them for a blessing after the blessing I felt a
lot better. Afterwards they explained the area to us and we met the
relief society. So later we were back home when we heard a knock on the
door. The relief society showed up and helped us clean our house!!!
Bless their dear hearts :). The rest of the week has been pretty busy.
Meeting the bishop, our ward mission leader, lots and lots of meeting
with the elders and others. We did service, we also have tried some less
actives. And we also got 2 new investigators on our first week here!!!!
So so far so good were pretty excited!!! And we have also become super
good friends with the elders their names are elder reams and elder
reading and their both super awesome! Im super excited for this area!!!!
Love you all :) Also heres a pic of sister Tompkins and I back in my
old area with the Carillo family :)
