Week 29

Okay! This week was a roller coster! Holy cow! :) 
First Wednesday I got a call from the zone leaders. They happily said that my area was going to close. So My comp. and I BOTH had a combio this week! I am going to Trujillo. In the center and most beautiful part of Trujillo. My new companion is a Hermana Leader, and she has a lot of responsibility with the Temple, so I will be in the temple a lot with her.! Today I have a meeting with people about the open house. All the sisters in the mission are going to Trujillo for 3 days, full of meeting and trainings for the open house. It is going to be way fun! Ah, this week and month is going to be crazy!!! 
Friday we started telling everyone that we were both leaving Bellamar. The zone leaders will be taking are place there and are really happy about it! I am leaving a little kid that is going to be baptized 16 May. Ah! I am so mad! My first baptism and I have to give him up! 
No one believed us when we told them that we were leaving. But Sunday, the Bishop announced that we were leaving, and gave us the opportunity to bear our testimonies one last time in the ward. It was so sad! 
After church we had ward counsel and that was even sadder... not a word but I don't care. The members are going to miss us so much. They haven't had elders there for 3 years. It will take some time to get used to the elders... :)
After church we visited a few members and then went to eat dinner and spend our last hours with our penchinista. To our "surprise" all the members were in her house to say goodbye. Here, they go around the room and everyone gets to say something to the missionaries. All the members wished us well, and all want us to return after our missions. Ah! I love this ward. All I kept thinking was that I have 1 year in my mission, and then after that, I have to work and get money to come back. The earliest that I can return is in 2 years. In two years I will see these people again. Ah! Thats such a long time!!!! :( Really, these people are my family. I can feel the love and hope that they have for us. And the members LOVE us! It was so hard to say goodbye! I will miss them. 
Well, I got my wish, to go to Trujillo!!! :) I am really excited. But I hear that my area is building and intercoms to talk to people. The work will be very different there. VERY Different. :) But I am ready. I can see the strength and confidence that I have to speak Spanish and teach the gospel. I know I can do it! 
The weather is good. It's starting to not be so hot, but no matter what I will always be sweating buckets. I was able to find the perfect clothes here for the temple open house, and I didn't spend a lot of money either. In Trujillo I will be able to find a lot more clothes and stuff, so that will be nice! :) 
Mother, thank you for the photos from the baby blessing of Jett! The family looks amazing and grows every time I see photos. I love you all and I am so happy that we are family! Thank you for the letters and the love! :) I pray that all will be well this week and all the things you people have to do, you can do them! :) 
LOVE YOU ALL! And the church is true! 
Love Hermana Hansen
