Hola!
 
 Today I have completed 13 months in the mission! ... but who´s counting. Also today were changes. Well I´m staying in Los Platanos but I´m changing companions. Actually I´M TRAINING!!! CRAZY! I´ll be training Hermana Zuñiga, she´s from Argentina. I really don´t know anything else about her but I´m way excited to get to know her and help her learn everything about the mission. Honestly I´m not too nervous but maybe I will be once I´m all on my own with her. I hope that I can be a great example to her.
 This week has been pretty fun. On Monday Hermana Barmore and I got permission to go the mall and meet up with Isabel, a convert from Lo Cañas. It was WAY fun. We just had luch together and told a bunch of stories. I am so grateful for that opportunity. Isabel is so AWESOME and I´ve missed her a lot. This week we had a ward activity. We really didn´t have a lot of people show up which sucks because it was a great activity. We did it on temples and Family history. I was so excited to talk about the topic since it´s like one of my favorite topics. It ended up being a great activity I just wish more people would have gone. On Saturday we had a stake activity for the youth, "Missionary for a day." I´ve already done this activity with 2 other stakes. Basically we meet up with the youth in the stake center in the morning, study with them, eat lunch and then go and work in our areas. Well there weren´t any young women that showed up so after lunch Hna. Barmore and I went back and worked in our sector. On Sunday the elders had a baptism!! President came and spoke at the baptism, which was awesome. Then after the baptism he told Hna. Barmore and I what our changes were going to be. I´m not going to lie I was pretty surprised. I thought I might be training but not in Los Platanos. I really thought that since Hna. Barmore only has one change left that she would stay and I would leave. I am really excited to stay in the ward and I really didn´t want to leave. I am SO EXCITED to stay in Los Platanos. We´ve got quite a few investigators now we´ve just got to get them to come to church!! I hope that Hna. Zuñiga and I can get a lot done this change and help everyone to feel the spirit when we enter their homes. I love my mission so much! I just want to serve with all my heart, might, mind, and strength!!
