New Companion


Hello!

Highlight of the week: A day in Darmstadt

I had a really fun split with Sister Cannon last week, down in Darmstadt (hometown of President Uchtdorf). We made some really awesome contacts on the street, and we made mexican food for dinner. Germany has zero good mexican restaurants. It was so awesome to see Sister Cannon again.

Also, we had a meeting on Friday where our new mission president and his wife (President and Sister Schwarz) introduced themselves a little and gave a very inspiring spiritual thought. They are a really nice couple. President Schwarz doesn't speak much English, so from now on all of our meetings will be in German.

I also have a new companion now. At the Friday meeting, we found out that Sister Schenk was going to be transferred out of Friedrichsdorf. That night she packed all of her stuff and on Saturday we travelled to her new area where I said goodbye to her and picked up my new companion. The sad thing is that Sister Schenk is now really far away, way on the other side of Germany, so I probably won't see her for a long time.

My new companion is really nice, though. Her name is Sister Römer. She's from Switzerland. I'm attaching a picture of us that we took at the temple this morning.

Love you all,

Sister Jensen
