Helloooooo family!
I am writing you from the small library in Beeville, TX! I
am in the northern-most part of the mission, and our area touches the San
Antonio mission border. Beeville reminds me of Berthoud or Mead because it is
so rural. There's even an Amish community in our area. And our area is HUGE!
It's 50 miles wide and covers 5 towns. I was super surprised to get sent even
farther away from the border of Mexico, which means I am still speaking
English. Oh well! I'll just have to rely on the gift of tongues when the day
comes for me to use my Spanish again!
I am in the area of Beeville West in Sinton Zone. That won't
mean anything to you, unless you are my cousin Nate, because he served in this
mission. And guess who's name I found in my area book? Nate! He served in this
area when it was called Woodsboro. I was so excited to find a teaching record
of an investigator that he taught way back when. :)
My new companion is Sister Alyssa Ferguson from Mayville,
Wisconsin! She is a fresh new missionary and I am enjoying training her. She's
great! She was the only sister missionary to come in this transfer, and I feel
pretty privileged to be training her. :)
This week has been pretty difficult. Side note: When both
missionaries get transferred out of an area and they put two new missionaries
in the area, it's called "whitewashing." And I am whitewash-training.
Two very hard things.But I am taking it one day at a time. Sister Ferguson is a
great greenie and we are learning our gigantic area together!
I can already tell this will be a transfer of miracles! In
this one week we have seen a lot of cool things happen together and I am
excited to keep working in Beeville!
I love y'all!
Love
Hermana Angus
