We were able to Skype with Hermana Hermansen yesterday! It was the highlight of our day. :) Here are some of the things we talked about:
1. Her current area is a little nicer than her previous areas. The houses are nicer and the streets are cleaner. They pay a lady in their ward $20 per transfer to do all of their laundry.
2. Her companion, Hermana Ramos, is so sweet! She is very bubbly and friendly (just like Sarah), and they get along so well. Hermana Ramos only has 3-4 more months left on her mission. We invited her to come and stay with our family if she ever comes to the United States.
3. Hermana Ramos told us that she is so grateful for Sarah and the fact that she was raised in a home that taught her the gospel. She is grateful for the kindness that Sarah has shown to her and the kindness that my mom has shown to both of them by sending gifts through packages.
4. Hermana Ramos wants to see three things when/if she comes to the United States:
1. The Salt Lake City Temple
2. The Cheesecake Factory (apparently Sarah has told her all about this restaurant)
3. The cowboys in Utah!!!
5. Carolina was doing really well, except she was not reading the Book of Mormon. She was praying to try to find an answer about the Book of Mormon (and she couldn't get one because she wasn't reading it) when she started to hang out with more of her Evangelical friends. She took this as her answer that it was not true. She does not believe right now, but Sarah has faith that someday she will.
6. They are teaching several new investigators. An elderly man that takes care of his sick wife is very interested in becoming a family forever and a new investigator, Patricia, has a baptism date of January 6th. We will be praying for her!!!
7. Our favorite part was when Sarah bore her testimony to us in Spanish!!!! She is such an amazing daughter, sister, aunt, cousin, friend, and missionary!!! We love her!!!
