Hi family! I hope everything is going well, this week has been a really good one for me.
My new companion is Hermana Martinez, and she's awesome! We're getting along great and she is teaching me so much already. she goes home in September so she doesn't have much time left on the mission but she's a really hard worker which is awesome! We're already really good friends :)
Lately some of the missionaries I know have been going home before their mission is finished and it just makes me really sad because I love my mission so much! I wouldn't trade this experience for anything. It's hard, as you've probably gotten from my emails, but it's so worth it! I hope you all can tell how much I love being a missionary. It is a once in a lifetime opportunity to learn and grow and become a better person. I'm learning so much about other people, about myself, and about my Savior. I am eternally grateful that I made the decision to come serve a mission. It is one of those things that I don't know where I'd be without it!
A little about my new companion: Hermana Martinez is from Puerto Rico, she's 21, she is almost done with her mission but really focused on missionary work which is awesome! She's so nice and funny and we just seemed to click right away. She's 4'9" so I feel abnormally tall standing next to her but I'm sure anyone would. She's just about the cutest thing to come out of Puerto Rico since those coqui frogs!
Germany won the world cup! Honestly I'm just glad it's over. Every time we'd try to visit people, they'd have it on and the last thing they wanted to do was turn it off and talk to us. Plus one of my roommates is from Germany so she was super happy.
This week is going to be great, I can just feel it. We already picked up three new people to teach, one of them came to church yesterday and really like it! An we're working on planning Alondra's baptism for the 27th. We're really excited!
Everyone try to stay cool this week, I have no hope so just soak up some AC for me!
Love,
Hermana Granado
