June 25th 2012

Dear Mom and Dad,

Hey thanks for the packages you sent! I got both of them and they were great! Thank you, thank you. Yay! School is out! I am happy for you! Thanks for all of the updates.

I am now in Ruse. It is very beautiful here and I can see Romania from my apartment! It is interesting being the senior companion and trainer now! My new companion is Sister Walch. She is from Santa Cruz, CA. She is really cool and loves soccer and movies so we get along just great! We have been doing a lot of contacting here since we got here just trying to get to know the city. There is this beautiful park by our apartment that is miles long that is alongside the Danuv river that separates Bulgaria from Romania. We have been going there to contact a lot. It is so beautiful, covered in flowers and roses of every color.

The people that we have met here so far have been really nice. The members are great but they are pretty dependent on the missionaries here so we are going to try and fix that so they can be more stable. As for my language skills...I feel as though I am going through the refiner's fire right now. It is hard right now but I can already tell that I am improving a lot faster than before. So after this transfer hopefully I will be very comfortable with everything.

Thank you for all of your prayers and support! I hope to get some more pictures to be able to send to you soon!

I love you all and I hope you have a great week!

Love, Jodi
