In the big city!

Malo family!! I got transferred to Bankstown, Sydney the busiest area in our mission! My soa, Sister Mariner is with me and got transferred to the Samoan ward so Canberra is getting shot gunned! Those sisters are amazing though, Woden ward is in good hands. My new Soa is Sister Villanueva from Phillipines and she is actually quite adorable haha. Bankstown is also known as the sketchiest area and most crime rate..so we got a Palangi American and a 4 foot Filipino leading the area haha. Nahh don't be scared mom, only joking ;) 

Bankstown is sooooo different with so many people! I miss my dear family back in Canberra (the other day I accidentally referred it to my home ward, oops) but the Lord has called me to these people "for such a time as this" I know that the Lord has people prepared here for us so here we go! This past week had so many highs and so many lows but the members here are great and ready to do missionary work with the new year and their new year's resolutions. We also picked up 4 new investigators, Joseph, Julius, Kenney and Benjamen from Kenya, Africa. They're very bible oriented as you can tell by their names and so ready to hear the restored gospel. They asked so many questions when we taught them the First Vision as the spirit led and guided the lesson and their hearts to listen. Stay tuned for these guys, we are going to commit them to baptism hopefully this week :)

Well I love you all, time is short but I have heaps of pictures. Have a happy new year!!!!!!!

Alofa atu!
