She was just transferred from her first area, Cluj, to Bucharest. She
It is very evident in her e-mails, the love she feels for the people of Cluj and she will miss them greatly. While serving there she needed to work on her ability to speak and read the language. So she was then asked to go to the park and ask some girls if it would be alright if she read to them, in Romania and they could help her when she messed up. There were some giggles exchanged between the two girls she was reading with but in the end she ended up with their numbers and it was a success.
She is very excited for the chance to move on to her next area and get to meet the people of Bucharest now. She is going to be super busy getting her and her companions new apartment set up because they are newest sister missionaries in that area.
Being in a country so different from home and getting to know the people there one on one has left her feeling very thankful for not only the way she grew up but the country she is from. She shares, "these people telling me about growing up starving and starting work at 4am just to try to raise a family..." ... ive never been so grateful to be born in a free country."
Now that she is serving in her new area, she will be able to get mail once a week (if there is any there). So get those letters out there! You can also send her Dear Elders again (www.dearelder.com mission Romania/Moldova), which she will receive once a week as well.
Nice to see Sister Johnson still has her great sense of humour.
