Saludos!
I sure am loving "training" Hermana Zegarra. And by training, I mean being trained by her. I love learning from her. She´s wonderful. She has such a strong desire to be a good missionary and to be obedient and to share the gospel. Every morning we do "12 week training," and it´s been a really great experience for me. I´ve learned so much and I feel like we´re learning together.

A couple of weeks ago, we had a meeting with all of the sisters in the mission. There were 61 of us. It was so fun to see all of the sisters in the mission. We got to hear talks from Hermana Douglas, President Douglas, and Hermana Clove. They were wonderful. We also watched Errand of Angels. It was fun to see what the mission is like in Europe. It´s so different from here, but the struggles are the same. I guess we´re all going through the same things. Missions are wonderful. They really help you learn and grow and become a better person. At the end of the conference, they gave each of us a pearl neckalce, harvested in the Philippines by poverty-stricken women, and then sent to India to be made into jewelry by leprous women. They´re beautiful. The Douglas´s sure  treat us well. It will be sad to see them leave in July, but I´m excited about the new couple that are coming.

Things are going well with Filomiz and her family. They are so wonderful. I´m not sure that they´ll be able to get baptized the 31st because they have so many questions, but I´m just so excited that they want to know everything! We love spending time with them. :)
Have a great week! Hermana Jorden
