First week in Caguas!

Hola todos!
This week was pretty crazy with transfers and getting to know my new area and comp!  My companion is Hermana Johnson, she is from texas and is finishing her mission this transfer:0  Also she is a recent convert as of 2 years so it has been  really fun getting to know her more!  Also a little about my area, it is so so big and basically like a big city in the middle of the mountains! it is so so green adn i love being surrounded by mountians!  There are also just so so many places to work which is really fun!  The only thing i am scared about is how i have to learn it in just this transfer:0 haha it will be fun!
Overall i do really love my new area!
I also just wanted to talk a little about my last night in Cabo Rojo:)  We went to visit our investigator Jessica and it was incredible to see how much she has grown this transfer, her desire to learn more is so so big and she really wants to have this in her life,  seeing her tell us all about how she just loves church and how she loves the lessons just made my heart so so happy!  Overall my last transfer i think the main thing i learned was about love.  How when we truly love someone we are willing to do whatever we can to help them, as well as loving everybody equally.  We were all together before this life, and we all have the light of Christ, sometimes we are just put into certain circumstances which makes is hard but i knwo and can testify that is is always there.  thsi is something I truly saw adn learned to recognize, as I began to see peopel for how christ sees them and this is something thath really changed my perspective on so many things and i am so grateful for thsi gospel adn the light it brings.
Anyways okay im jumping all over the place sorry about that!  But more about Caguas, i am also in a house of 4 again which is fun!  I am also very spoiled in this house with a dryer, air conditioning, adn hot waterrrrrr:) haha its amazing!
The ward here is also really big and so so amazing!!  I love them all so much!  My second day we went over to a members house for lunch and had some amazing puerto rican food, rice beans adn chicken! 
A little about our investigators, we have one investigator named Ilda and she is super sweet and really receptive!  We had a lesson with her about the Plan of Salvation adn she loved it so much adn so we are excited to teach her more!
Okay next week i will talk a little more about it and have some stories to tell! love you all!  Never forget Heavenly Father is always there for us adn loves us more than we will ever know:)
con mucho amor, Hermana Zimmerman:)
