November 6, Sunday, the time almost evening, Sr. Jennylyn Magtaka arrived at the airport of Jakarta on a long trip from Spain. She could not fly immediately to the next destination because it was late at night. The first experience in Indonesia was a little different than what we expected for the situation, but passed one night, and could sleep a few hours because of the different time zone from Spain. On November 7, Monday, she continued traveling from Jakarta to Yogyakarta city, arriving at 5:00 pm. Sr. Lucia Lu Lu went with a teacher, Ms. Rosendi, and her parents to the airport to pick her up. The weather was very rainy and some parts of the road were flooded so the father of the teacher drove slowly and carefully. We left the airport at 5:15 p.m. then we arrived in the center of Yogyakarta at 8:20 p.m. We took dinner in a traditional restaurant together with them then at 9:00 p.m. we arrived well at the convent of SCMM (Sisters of Charity of Mother of Mercy Congregation) which is now where we are living. After one week, Sr. Jenny started an intensive course for the Indonesian Language at the Language Institute of Sanata Dharma University where also Sr. Lucia Lu Lu studies. We start the class from Monday to Friday 8:30 a.m. -12:00 noon and 1:00 – 2:30 p.m.

     We wish for her new mission in Indonesia that by the grace of God, she will be one of God’s instruments of Mercy and Consolation. Even though the situation has to be newly adjusted to language, tradition, culture, weather, food, and with a new community in the new mission. With all our sisters, we united in prayer and accompanied each other to fulfill our new mission in the community of Ende.
