Dear family and friends,
All is well here, I am in a different area with a new
companion. I am in a place called Umacullo, it is still in Arequipa. It is
pretty close to my last area of Graficos. My area has the Elders office in
it...so now instead of the mission house I have the mission office in my area!!
My companion seems
really nice, she has ten months in the mission, and is from Peru. I only had
time to drop of my luggage and come to internet. So I haven't had a chance to
talk with her or get to know her too much, but I hope we will work hard together
and become good friends! My house and the family we live with seem really nice.
Our room is basically a garage, but that's cool!
It is always hard to
leave your first area at least that is what I have heard and now felt...it is
kind of sad. I have a lot of friends there that I miss and of course my amazing
companion Hermana Weller. She was super hard to leave because we are such great
friends. But as we said we got to enjoy Christmas together and make a lot of
memories! Many fun and spiritual ones, and of course we will stay friends
forever!! Really though she is a great missionary and example to me, I am grateful
to have her as a friend and to have had her as a companion. She will do a lot
of good and I am glad she is the one taking over Graficos! We have a baptism
there next week. And in a couple weeks a family that we have taught a few
times. I would love to be there for their baptisms but nonetheless I am happy
for them and that they are going to be members of the church. Truly I am just
grateful I got to be a part of their conversion process, at least a little!!
Well I am ready to
see this new area and get to know and meet lots of amazing people!! I will let
you all know of my first week!! Thanks for all of the love and support, take
care be safe, pray hard and remember you are loved!!
Hermana Jacobson
