We got a third companion for three days this week! Luckily she had a bike...
Needed repairs!
She got to be there for my greenie's birthday! She turned 20 - we are now all the same age!
Fun, busy, crazy times! We had to share areas, so we were driving/ bike 80 miles a day. :) Her companion had to go home, and then, another Hermana went home, so she had to leave and be the companion of the one that left. It is hard to go home early - for the missionaries who leave, the ones who stay, and their families.
If you are a missionary, I recommend this talk by Jeffery R. Holland called "Don't you dare go home!" The main idea is that, however bad it is, don't leave early. He specifically exempts those with medical problems - he's not talking about that. He's talking about those who gave up because it was too hard. Trust Elder Holland and trust me when we say: IT'S WORTH IT! Stay!
Sorry for the short email this week! Love you! Miracles to be reported next week!
