3Servings: Week 4 RLF Jan 19 2017 MTC

SPAIN!!! thank goodness for pdays!

I am so grateful to be where I am but it´s incredible not to have to worry about speaking spanish or come up with a lesson.

So I´m gonna tell you a little about how my week goes.

Monday is the beginning of the week, so we get Desayuno for about 30 minutos despúes nosotros tienemus planificación diaria y personal readong of El Libro de Mormon.

okay thats enough spanish.

then we get to teach our first investigator of the day in spanish...thats pretty intense, it´s coming along but man I feel like a little kid saying this like

the savior die for you sins, and when read books we learn stuffs

ya know? ESta bien, perro es verdad! AYE no español! see I´m using it agains my will now.

after that we get to go through grammar, i love spanish but man they have some crazy rules, and then every rule has an exception! (oh wow, whos whining now some people have to deal with english, which i have decided is by far the most intense language, there are no patterns in english, at least in Russian and Japensese once you learn the characters you´re pretty much good with the grammar)

then we get to prepare and asignment (sorry if I cannot spell at all, for some reason when you start to learn a new language your old one goes away)

then we get to teach another investigator and then COMIDA!! :D then we read more of the book of mormon and prepare another asignación (stop! no more spanish, impossible!)

then we get to play FOOTBALL! seriously my favorite part of the day.

unfortunately my poor compañera messed up her ankle, luckily for her her compañera is a massage therapist and knows how to use kinesio tape, so she´s nice and bandaged up and on her way to recovery so we can go play foot ball more.

then we get to eat dinner and then we have companion study and language study (an hour of free study time where we get to work on what we need)

then we get to go to bed!!

so thats my day usually

HOWEVER!!

this week, things have CHANGED! dun dun...dun..

ha not really

My comp and I have been called as sister training leaders (basically lady zone leaders) so we´re meant to be the example (pretty sure they just called us so we wouldn´t be the center of the shinanigans) our CCM president is incredible though, he trusts us, which makes me feel really good. so that happened, and then our incredible russian sisters and our amazing portuguese district left, as their three weeks were over. We sang God be with you ´til we meet again on the temple steps, and it was one of the hardest parts of my mission. They will forever have a piece of my heart and I plan on learning Russian and Portuguese so I can speak to them!! (wait till you learn spanish sister fuller, don´t jump the gun! crazy person!!)

So we miss them, but fortunately we had 2 new russian sisters and a russian elder, 3 italian brothers and then 6 new spanish speaking sisters plust 5 new spanish speaking elders!! it´s amazing!! we actually get to practice our spanish and then they tell us when we sound like 3 year olds.

HA side story, so our mission president hates the word guys, frick, and freak so the english speaking districts all have tally marks on the board of how many times we´ve said it throughout the week and then at the end who ever has the most has to do a bunch of pushups or buy the district candy. it´s pretty great. My companion says it the most, but she´s getting better HA!!

Today we get to go SHOPPING!! which is seriously, so exciting...(why? i have no idea but it is) we´re going to the mall and it´s pretty insane how excited we all are.

just the little things get us totally just bounce off the wall crazy happy here are a few

1. ice cream on fridays and sundays

2. wearing JEANS for service projects!

3. the temple with a sunset back drop ( gorgeous)

4. playing language games on our tablets (YES they gave them back! president is so not happy about it

5. doing our hair without having to use heat( ladies and gentlman it can be done and we are all so stinking cute)

I love these people here, it´s like i´ve known them my whole life....I know I´m where I´m supposed to be, no doubt in my mind

it´s amazing here, although none of our teachers speak much english we still get to communicate with them and laugh so much I think I´ll have a 6 pack by the time i get out of the CCM.

I can´t tell you how grateful I am to be here, but also how much I know the Atonement is real, I know the savior feels every hard time I go through and ever pain I deal with. I wouldn´t be able to do this if I didn´t know he was right there watching over me, helping me along every step.

If we let him in, if we ask for his help, he will be there for us, no matter what, all we have to do is ask!

my new favorite thing this week is praying in the morning and telling him every detail of my day and then at night thanking him for every person by name and each event and each thing I learned that day. it strengthens my relationship with him and I feel closer the more I tell him and the more I trust him

Trust in the Savior, he loves you and he understands! Be obedient because you love im not because you have to

obedience brings blessings, perfect obedience brings miracles

follow every commandment, be the best you can be!

I love you all, and I know he does too.

talk to you next week!
