There is a girl from Argentina currently living in my parents' ward in Sun Valley. Her name is Sofia. (That's who Jordan was talking about in her last email). Sofia went back to Argentina a few weeks ago and my parents were able to send a package (and a hug!) for Jordan. My dad has expressed concern that Sofia wouldn't get to see Jordan, but she did! I'm sure it was a fantastic surprise for Jordan to get unexpected love from home. Dad did send peanut butter which was, unfortunately, confiscated in customs. Shoot!
Here's the email my Dad got from Sofia today:
Hi brother Scanlon!
Finally i met Jordan today!! She was very happy to see me, it was kind of a surprise afterall because i told to some elders that i was going to ramos mejia, but they never told her.
Was great to get to know her we were talking for about and hour, she gave me something to take back to you. I'm heading back to Sun Valley in 2 weeks, so i'll see you soon.
I hope everything is going great for you over there!!
best.
Sofia.-
This is the email Jordan sent to our Dad:
Hi Dad!
Yeah I met sofia today!!! What a great surprise! I had no idea that she was going to be there so it was really funny. I was talking to one of the other missionaries and then a girl came up to me and asked, "Are you Hna Scanlon" To which of course I responded yes and then when she told me that she was Sofia I think I jumped like 5 feet in the air and gave her a HUGE hug. I think she was a little surprised... I think that I also gave her like 5 hugs afterwards so hopefully at least one gets to you guys. It was a little stressful because all the missinaries were there including Hna Svedin and co who were with me in the MTC and I haven´t seen since like the beginning of Feb and there wasn´t really time to talk to everyone but it all seemed to go well and I think that Sofia really enjoyed being there... at least I hope so I think she really was there hanging out with me for like a hour. Ok I better go and write my big letter!
Love you!
your favorite missionary
