Well this week has
been alot like the rest. Tired, mind blown by all the Spanish, and always
spiritual. Nothing really happened Saturday cause i was in class for 10
hours. Sunday was bittersweet, It was one of the Zones last sunday
because they were leaving to start their missions in Mexico! But my companion
and i took the new assignment of becoming Zone Leaders. Lots more
responsibilities but we also have a cell phone now! Even though it can only
call security and the front desk and our Branch Presidents home/cell, but i
have technology again!!!! Every Sunday we take a walk to temple as a
zone and its so peaceful. We also had a Devotional where Bishop Davies spoke at
( 2nd Counselor in Presiding Bishopric) But i forgot my notes in my room about
his talk. Lo siento. Monday we were supposed to teach one of our
Teacher (she role plays as a lady named Areli) but right after we were about
to, she got a call saying her grandfather had passed so we didnt end up
teaching her. But later in the afternoon we taught our TRC investigator Alan
another lesson. I always love teaching Alan ( weve heard hes an actual member
of the Church) He now offers prayers in our lessons which is awesome! Also monday there
was a Hermana in our District, Hermana O'Neill that finally got her Visa and
headed out to the Spain MTC and so her companion, Hermana Sagapulo. Its very
different being in a trio. Tuesday we had service at 6:15 again
and later that day we had something called Member TRC where we pretty much
teach a mini lesson/ spiritual though with a member and leave them with a
commitment and we did that twice. The first guy reminded me of my granpa so it
was really awesome, Love you Grandpa! and the 2nd guy seemed a little more
hardcore though. but after our lesson we had a converstaion with us and the
said " You guys got here 2 weeks ago, and you just held a 30 minute
conversation with me in Spanish, Im so proud of you guys" So that was a
really uplifting lesson. The we had a Devotional Where President Condie spoke
at. Wednesday and thursday were basically Class, Class, and
more class. I can Teach in spanish now without notes and its an amazing
feeling.And it SNOWED YESTERDAY Today we went to the temple,
came back and did laundry... and someone stole my laundry bag which really
irritated me because now i have no place to put clothes and also i had to walk
all the way from the laudry room to the bedroom with a heaping pile of dirty
clothes and people looking weird at me. and here i am writing this letter on
the computer! I love you guys and miss you all so much! Things can be tough
sometimes but i know ill always have Heavenly Fathers support and yalls
support! I know that the Holy ghost and Faith can work miricales in life,
especially here at the MTC. I came here a little over 2 weeks ago and was
struggling with spanish. Now im able to teach a 30 minute lesson, without
notes, a lesson that actually makes sense, and a lesson guided by the spirit in
Spanish. The gift of tongues is real, but you have to work for it and put forth
faith. At times its frustrating here, But i always get a reminder that im
preparing myself for that 1 person or multiple persons waiting for me in
Nicaragua to hear about this Gospel and to help them come unto Christ. I
love you all and im loving the Dear Elders & also the letters taht you guys
are sending! it makes every day easier! LOve Y'all :)
