THEY´RE BUILDING A TEMPLE IN HAITI! I can´t believe it! As soon as I heard, I ran into the chapel where they were watching conference in Spanish. I searched for my sweet Haitian family, but they hadn´t arrived yet. But everyone turned around so I said "A temple in Haiti!" and they all smiled. My heart leapt for joy. Haitians are some of the sweetest, most humble people I´ve ever met. I am so happy for them. The rest of the day, every time I saw a Haitian walking in the street, I just wanted to yell "They´re building a temple in Haiti!" I loved listening to conference this weekend, and especially that incredible news. I was only able to watch about half in English, and I didn´t understand the rest. haha But I just love seeing the apostles of God and feeling the beautiful Spirit of conference. None of our progressing investigators were able to make it, but it was still a wonderful experience. I feel so grateful to have been there to celebrate such a beautiful moment with my little Haitian family. 

Well, after 9 months of serving in Jarabacoa, I finally left and was sent to Bonao 2 in the Bonao zone. It was hard to say goodbye to all of my wonderful friends, but I´m excited for a new adventure. My companion is Hermana Seenaraine from Guyana, a small country in South America where they speak English. She is the sweetest, most humble sister, and I am so excited to learn from her example. She said it rains here a lot, and it is much hotter than Jarabacoa, but it´s a really beautiful city. I can´t wait to start meeting the members and the investigators!

On Monday, we went to visit Berta in the hospital. The last time we had seen her, she was doing really badly and the nurse wouldn´t let us in to see her. But on Monday, we saw her sitting up and eating, and when she saw us, she had the biggest smile. We came in and talked to her for a bit. She told us that she was doing a lot better. She looked a lot better. Right then, the nurse came in to check on her and to see the X ray of her lungs. After she looked at it, all of the nurses cheered and she said that she was all better! It was a really happy moment, and I was so grateful that we got to be there for it. We stopped by yesterday as well so I could say goodbye to her, but the doctor was doing a checkup and we couldn´t go in. But about an hour ago, Hermana Zegarra called me to tell me that Wilson called and said that she finally got to go home! We´re so happy for all of the people that helped us and for all of your support and prayers. Now this sweet lady has another chance at life to raise her family and to accept the gospel of Jesus Christ in her life. 

It´s been a wonderful week, and I´m so looking forward to this new adventure I´m starting! I can´t wait to see what the Lord has in store! 

Hasta luego, Hermana Jorden
