Gringas in Our Sector

We had changes today and now everyone is a gringa here in Districto Orquideas 2. Hermana Lagos went back home to Honduras, and I´m the companion that "killed her", they say. They say it to everyone who is a last companion. Hermana Ocon is waiting to train a new missionary, and my new companion is a blonde girl from Canada, Hermana Purnell. I´ll have to send new pictures next week, I couldn´t find my uploader today. Everything is fine here in Guayaquil, a hot day as usual, and lots of humidity and running about. We`re all tired due to almost no sleep, because we were packing and helping pack all night. But we`ve gotten everything done and are going to do more. We have a family home evening tonight with the bishop´s family and one of our family investigators. We call them Familia B4 because the mom and dad are called Beatris and Boris, but then their daughter and son are called Beatris and Boris too. It´s really fun! The only thing that kind of stinks is that they won`t go to church, so we can´t ask them to be baptised yet. But they believe in Chirst, and have lots of faith because they`re catholic, so we`re trying to get them to see that God`s revealed new doctrine, because He would never leave His children alone without true and complete guidance. They have the Family Proclamation to the World magneted to their fridge, so I think they will come to see it soon. We´re teaching two other families, the family of Karina, and the family of Consuelo. They´ve both got baptism dates, and I´m excited for them! Karina is always ready to have us over to teach, and that just makes my week! Consuelo... We´ll see. We´re passing by her today too, so yeah! But that´s basically all that happened this week, other than Hna. Lagos and I working to pack up her stuff. But that´s all fine, because I´m excited for my new adventures with Hna. Purnell! I´ll send you all an update next week! Take care, I love you all and am always praying for you. Love, Hermana Johnson
