The Finca

Hola Family & Friends,

I have lived at the Finca for almost 2 weeks now! It has been so beautiful! It has felt a little strange because these last 2 weeks have been orientation so it feels a bit like an extended vacation. This week we had interviews for our jobs at the Finca. I was the only one of our new missionary class to come in knowing my position. During the interview process there was some competition, Noelle knows a lot of medical terminology. I think what put my over the top was my license :) Beside our primary jobs we also have three smaller jobs. I will be coaching girls soccer with Noelle, helping coach swimming lessons with Laura, and spiritual committee, which helps the sisters prepare the masses and other events.

Living in community, we will also have the shared task of cooking meals, cleaning, while maintaining our own chores like laundry, which is a bit more time consuming in the pila. I will never complain about doing laundry in the states again! haha. Actually I do enjoy washing my clothes pila style, at least for now :)

I am excited to have a purpose at the Finca:) I officially start shadowing Monday.  I hoping to propose a project involving the kids painting murals in the clinic! I'll keep you updated! More stories to come! Thanks for all your prayers! Please keep them coming!

Also because of many requests this is my new address for the next years! Instant coffee packets are always welcome! :)
