EMERGENCY TRANSFER. I´m no longer in Móstoles. I am in an area close by called Alcorcón AND I´m in a trio. I am still with Hermana Shauman (20 from Tenessee. She´s been on the mission for 10 months and her previous area was Las Palmas in the Canary Islands) but now I have a new companion, Hermana VolQuardsen (26 from Texas. She has been on the mission for 13 months and she has been in Alcorcón for 3 transfers already.) So we have one from the north, one from the islands, and we both met up in the middle with one in the center. Hermana Shaumann were in Móstoles for less than 24 for hours and halfway done unpacking when we got the call that we were being moved. It´s been a crazy stream of events but I am excited for this new area and I can´t wait to see how this transfer goes.
Madrid is Completely different from the north. There are a lot more South Americans than Spaniards (but I am determined to start getting some Spaniard investigators). The first time we went contacting we received 5 referances in about only half an hour....I started crying. We would contact for hours at times in Gijón and still not have 5 referances. I have become even more grateful for my time in Gijón. Being in the North really taught me to work hard, and because the work was harder the success was that much more rewarding.
The one investigator I would like to talk about this week is Peter. Peter is a 45 year old man from Nigeria. He has been taught by Hermana Volquardsen for some time and we met with him last Friday. He made us this delicious Nigerian dish that we had to eat with our hands. (I had no problem with that). After we ate we had a lesson with him and went over the Restauración. He had a date to be baptized the first of february, but after we were done teaching he told us that he wanted to be baptized before that. We are hoping to have a baptism with him this Saturday :)
I believe that is all I have for now. Next week I will send you more :)
Thank you for all. Keep praying. Keep reading. And Keep pressing forward.
Mucho Amor,
Hermana Ariana Fuller
Emergency Transfer:
Two Hermanas needed to be switched out so they transferred us over here. That´s all. I LOVED all the pictures you sent me. I cannot wait to see the house! It looks so beautiful. That´s awesome that you are going to the temple. I will get to go to the temple once a transfer now because I´m in Madrid. Why did they have to change her name? It´s a beautiful name though. Do they still call her bree? Did you get my new address? Sorry, I don´t have my chord again because it´s in my suitcases somewhere but I´ll try to send pictures next week. I LOVE YOU:)
