Hey Everyone!!
Well, sorry this is going to be a short and sweet little email. Just know that life is all good here in Abancaycito.
Heres a top 4from the week.
1. My new companions is amazing. As usual. I am soooo beyond blessed. Hermana Arana is from Lima, and she has a little bit less then a year in the mission.
(Random fun fact. In our mission, we dont say how much time we have in the mission. We just say if we have more or less then a year in the mission.) She has a huuuuge heart, and such a big desire to serve. I have already learned so much from her :)
2. Water is starting to dry up in Abancay....thats good. Its been a while since I have had a good bucket shower. :)
3. Daycka´s baptism!! Danycka has such a good and pure spirit about her. When she came out of the baptismal font, we asked her how she felt, and with a huge smile she said, " Super super super super feliz!" Yes, all four supers.
4. This week we heard a super sad story. A trailer full of cement crashed into a little house this week, killing a whole family, the mom, the two kids, and the driver. Their house was destroyed, literally leaving nothing behind. The father was out working that night, and is the only one alive in the famly. The other day it seemed like almost all of Abancay was outside flying kites, in memory of this little family. Oh how my heart broke. I cannot imagine the pain this young father is going through. But I have been thinking alot about the Plan of Salvation this week. I cannot express how grateful I am that we have the opportunity to be with our families forever. Gods plan is so perfect, and when we understand it and live it, we will come to have an eternal perspective. I LOVE teaching that in Gods eternal plan, there are no endings. There is nothing more beautiful then that.
Well everyone, keep on keeping on :) This life is a beautiful one.
Con Amor, Hermana Hansen
BEING A MISSIONARY IS JUST FUN! :)
