Hermana Jones Week 48

So we had cambios! I was a little sad after having 4 cambios in Sauces.  When I left in the morning it was worse than when I left home to go on the mission.  I am in D.F now (the big city).  It feels really funny because it was about a year ago that I was here in the city and now I am back!

I am Capacitadora now (I dont really know what that it in English, but probably like sister training leader) I am a little nervous because usually there are two, but I am the only one and it is my first time, so I don't really have anyone to learn from, but I am sure it will be a great cambio.

My new companion is Hermana Aguilar, and she is from Mexico.  She is super nice and I knew her from my other zone so that's good. It is also weird to be in the city because it is reversed because in Toluca it is so safe-- our zone had only 6 elders and 14 hermanas.  Here we only have 6 hermanas but I am super excited.  My area seems really nice, and the people are really nice here.  It is funny being an American hermana sometimes, though, because I am the first American hermana ever in this area so the members of the ward are super excited that president sent an American hermana hahha.

This week we brought a girl named Ruth to church.  She is 14 and she loooved it.  When we were on the bus ride home she said "today was magical."  We asked her why and she said that she loved church and she loved all the people there so that made us really happy.  Her family was really interested when Ruth got home from church because she talked about how much they loved it, so I am sure that they are going to get baptized.  It is weird going from such a huge house in Sauces to a tiny house in the city but even though it was sad to change I feel like it feels so much more like an adventure because I haven't changed in so long.

I hope everything is going great there. Anyway this week was super awesome and I am excited to get to be Capacitadora because we get to go to presidents house once a month and talk about things the missionaries need and I heard it was really fun.  It is always fun to be able to see the mission president and his wife because in the mission they are like your parents.  Anyway, I hope you have a great week and I will send you lots of pictures next week of my new area :)

My release date is set for August 17th, but I don't know if that is the exact date or not.

The pictures show a member's house we ate at last week, and also the girl who is getting baptized.  I was sad to leave!  The doll is one that a member made me before I left, and also there is a picture of me with my new companion.

Love,
Hermana Jones
