New Area

HellO! 
 
Don´t have much time, turns out our internet place is closed on P-Day so we had to come today and we have an appointment in just a bit. 
 
My new area! Is great. Talk about huge change. My greenie still has not come. The hope is that within the next few weeks. I can´t wait to meet her. Right now she is serving in Montana while she waits. Cool! One time I had a flat tire in montana, so I´m sure we will have lots in common.
 
As for now I´m in a tripla. Irma Perez and her Greenie irma lima. Irma Lima is from Cabo Verde. She is really sweet, totally willing to work and get things done. It´s awesome. We all get along pretty well, with a couple cultural bumps along the way we are getting to know each otehr and already seeing miracles. Our ward is gigantic. I mean gigantic. like 110 people every sunday. Here is the scoop.... There will be a new branch in our neck of the woods, thats why they sent our two companionships here, to help open a new branch closer to our area. Right now the chapel is faaaaaaar away from us. We have to catch the bus, and then the train, and then walk to get to church....ya, I thought the chapel was far in my last area.
 
Anywho, I can´t believe that the Lord trusts us with this huge change. But listen, He really is in control (Bil reminded of that).
 
I´m having the time of my life. I feel like I started my mission again. Coming back to the continent has been so neat. I saw some old friends from past disticts and it was like the sons of mosiah meeting again after a long time and rejoicing because they were still strong itn the faith. Neat.
 
I miss the island, but not enough to worry about it. I have a work to do, it is the Lord´s work. He has called me to this area in this time and time is flying. This week makes 1 year in the mission. Now is the time to kick it in to high gear.
 
Maybe next week I will already have started working with my greenie and we will have split up our area. who knows.
 
Here is my address:
Alameda Salgueiro Maia, Lote 82 RC-C
2975-333 Quinta do Conde
Portugal
 
write me a line. I´m out of time!
 
Love Lizzie
