East Malaysia is Where It's At (Transfer News)

Nama berita kita wai,

That's right, I'm bringing back my Iban again because tomorrow I'm hopping on an airplane and going to Kuching! Kota Sentosa branch! I'm so excited! I'm finishing Sister Bourgeoise's training (can you believe President Mains and the Lord trusted me with another new missionary?) But like always, transfers are bittersweet because I LOVE my Filipinos and I'm going to miss serving with them so much. Singapore is kind of a magical city, but the nice thing is we always come back. I fly out tomorrow though.

How cool is it that I can say the entire city of Singapore was my area? I'm grateful for the good friendships I've built here, and for my immersion into Filipino culture (definitely did not see that coming before I came on my mission). Sister Hansen and I are making a trip to Philippines: 2015. I'm going to miss speaking to the very, very interesting bright people here, like Italian surfers, Spanish architects, Indonesian Hindu accountants, Singaporean-Chinese models, and so on.

This week was exponentially better in every way. We got to visit so many people, and get to know our church members better. It makes me even sadder to leave, but such is the life of a missionary. I'm going to miss Sister Hansen and Sister Zhang so much. They are my friends for life. Sister Hansen and I had so many good times, so many laughs. I'm grateful I got to be her trainer, but let's be real, she trained me. I'm a better missionary for her example. We were saying sweet things to each other like "You're a good comp," and "I'm gonna miss you," but then we'd say, "Ew, we're such sister missionaries."

I'm really going to miss working with Elder Toney and Elder Robinson. They are incredible teachers, they always invited the spirit simply by their presence. It was always good to see them after a hard week when they got home from Malaysia. It's like seeing your big brothers and have them tell you you're doing all things better missionary than you think you are. They gave great talks in church yesterday, Elder Robinson talked about Alma 13 and how angels come in the form of guys in white shirts and ties and name tags (or in the form of Sister Wynn and Sister Hansen) but angels come in the form of church members too, and told an incredible story about a couple people he taught and baptized in KL. Elder Toney talked about how important member missionaries are and how much he loves them and how missionary service has changed him. He's really good at showing love to everyone, members, investigators, and missionaries. They both ask the most inspired questions. Eh I'll see them in 2 weeks when they're on exchanges in Kuching.

Well I'm out of time, but next week I'll tell you about how fun it was playing ultimate frisbee on the beach and about us being in the sketchiest clinic ever until 1 am because Sister Zhang got bitten by a cat. Oh and I converted my weight from kilos to pounds (I weighed myself at the clinic out of boredom) and that was a mistake. Singapore makes you fat. So worth it. And then I'll tell you about my new adventures in Kota Sentosa.

Semoga berjaya to you all, here's to new jungle adventures!

Love, Sister Wynn

Epic...
