When the new missionaries arrive, we like to introduce them to some of our tasty new fruit that is very new for them. Colombia is full of beautiful flowers and wonderful fruits that we don't see in the USA.
I have chosen the title "Hermona Patrona" because my husband has for many years affectionately called me La Patrona. In Spanish the word jefa means "she who is the boss". My husband, however, says that the word patrona refers to "she who commands". In other words, La Patrona is more powerful than La Jefa. Because we are serving on a mission, he now calls me "Hermana Patrona."
