So here's a curveball for the week! :) On Thursday we got a call from the mission office (here I was expecting it to be them wanting to schedule my exit interview with president...) to let us know that Sister Kofe got her visa to panama!! BUT that means that she needs to leave on TUESDAY. aka tomorrow. aka a week before transfers. So, since I am not allowed to be without a companion, (duh) I will be going to live with my English Sister Training Leaders in the Highland Station ward. I began my mission in a trio, and I will end my mission in a trio. :)
So that means I'm basically already packed and will be living out of a suitcase for a week. #sleepover My bags are packed, literally the definition of trunky. :) haha But don't worry, I've still got LOTS to do to prepare our investigators and the area to receive two new sisters. Lots of notes to write and people to visit. On the plus side, the Highland Station sisters have a really nice apartment. And a gym. I will be putting those treadmills to good use during morning workouts!
We're going caroling tonight! That will be fun.

So a family in an English ward called us and had us over for dinner on Thursday because their aunt from Honduras was in town and wanted to give her an opportunity to meet the missionaries and hear a message in her own language. So we had these REAAAAALLY good enchiladas (yum) and watched the "He is the Gift" video with them. (christmas.mormon.org) So sweet. She's leaving to go back to Honduras soon, but we stopped by last night to teach her the restoration and she accepted a copy of the Book of Mormon! Super cool. A good seed planted.
Played the piano in Sacrament again. It's fun :) The ward is very patient with me and my many messups but it's a fun way to serve.
Our investigators are doing well! We'll be trying to visit everyone this week to let them know about the changes and everything. And we are going to be having LOTS of meals this week, since our meal calendar is full and so is the Highland Station meal calendar....Don't be surprised if I come home 100 pounds heavier. It will be a fun surprise. hah
To answer your question, Mom, our transfer meeting is on Wednesday, so Wednesday afternoon President and Sister Ames take all the departing missionaries to the temple and we're there basically all day until dinner at the mission home and a testimony meeting. Then we get up Thursday morning for our return flights! Any set-in-stone plans for the weekend with the whole family? :) AND I am A-OK with keeping the In-n-Out tradition. In fact, I've been planning on it. Already read your minds.
Hope you all have a good week this week, love you all! Cuidense y portense bien, ok?
Les quiero,
Hermanita Sangre
