Week 67

Hola!!! Well I got some crazy transfer news this week!! I found out that I was leaving Columbine and Chatfield to come to the Denver 1st ward. It is an all Spanish speaking ward and our area is huge!!! My new companion is Hermana Farroñay Chavez. She is originally from Lima Peru, but she moved to California when she was 5 and then West Jordan, Utah when she was 12! She has 6 weeks in the mission, so I have the awesome opportunity to follow up train her, but really she is training me. She is a sweet heart!! It is crazy being in the city! There is every single store you can ever imagine!! But the traffic and driving in the city is terrifying and I am the designated driver hahaha!! So everyone needs to pray extra hard for me!! Well this week was great!! It was an amazing Thanksgiving!! We ate with the Jones Family, and their family is HUGE!! They had like 40 people, it definitely looked like our family parties at home. And then we ate desert with the Wheelers! I am truly so grateful for Thanksgiving, and for the amazing people I have met here, and All of you at home!!! 
    This week was also great as I said bye to everyone in Columbine and Chatfield!! We had dinner with the Nitzel family before I left and I got to say good bye to all of them!! i LOVE their sweet family and I am so excited for them and the next steps they get to take as a family! We also had our last lesson with Ryan and she said that she still felt prepared and she prayed about a baptismal date and chose December 23rd!! And We got to see the Brumbles and give them a baptismal date for January 13th! I love the sweet, amazing people there!! and most of all I will miss Sister McLing she is such a sweetheart and she always knows how to make me laugh! I am so glad that she gets to stay in the area and keep me updated!! hahah! 
  It has been amazing meeting the people in this area! My favorite people that I have had the opportunity to meet so far are the Gurrolas!! They are a sweet old couple from Juarez! And Antonio Gurrola recently experienced a tragedy he was at work and an accident happened and he fractured his spine, and is now in a wheel chair. He never used to be religious before his accident but He is truly humble and is searching for God! They both accepted a baptismal date and came to church!! I am super excited to be serving here!! I know it is going to be a huge change!! But it has been amazing so far!! I am grateful that Heavenly Father is mindful of where we need to be and who we need to be with!! I love you all and I hope that YOU ARE ENJOYING THE HOLIDAYS! MAKE SURE TO CHECK OUT THE lIGHT THE wORLD INITIATIVE AND to reach out in love and do service this Christmas! Les Quiero!! 

My new address is 7160 W cedar Ave. Lakewood, CO.
