…tomorrow we're going to the market
place and el Temple at 3:30p.m. and we won't be able to write because
of time, so we're writing today!
I'm SO HAPPY to be able to feel all
the prayers on my behalf and all of your love in addition to the ever abounding
LOVE of the Lord through His Espiritu that ever surrounds us!!!!
The Lord is TRULY, TRULY helping me
here!!! It's SO HARD and I've been humbled a lot, but that has put me into such
a better place to LOVE the Lord and receive better His help!!!!! I'm SO
GRATEFUL!!!
We had a WONDERFUL Sabbath
yesterday!!!! It was the BEST!!!! We totally had a movie night and watched both
The Testament y (and) Legacy!!!! SO GRAN (GREAT)!!!!
It's pouring rain!!!! And lightening
right now!!! It rains about every afternoon!!!! It's SO AMAZING and then
clears up and is all sunny again!!!! Sunny in the morning, rainy in the
afternoon and warm and sunny in the night again!!!! And when it
rains, it RAINS here!!!! It's not the same as hearing the rain hit the leaves
in the canyon, but a close second!!! YAY!!!!
So my teacher (one of them) is
named Hermono Guirola, I call him Gorilla. He's 21 just got home from his
Mision in El Salvador y Belize a few months ago, he's way fun, reminds me
of Vallan and the gang and anyway, I thought you'd appreciate this
story. So, I was talking to him, and he randomly puts his hand next
to my temple acts like his pushes a button and says, “Off”. I felt right
at home!!!! Hahahaha!!!! I seriously hadn't even been talking that much!!!
But he's just really fun and hilarious like that!!! He thought it was
hysterical and so did I and me compeƱera, Hermana Rasmussen!!!!
I LOVE me compeƱera by
the way!!! She is SO WONDERFUL, NICE y PATIENT!!! She knows a little
EspaƱol from high school and she's been perfect for helping me!!! I
seriously couldn't have asked for a better companion!!! She helps me in all the
areas I need to improve and I help her!!!! The Lord is PERFECT!!!! REALLY He
is!!!!!
So my districto is
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!! We're all just like a family, hermonos y hermanas!!!!
We're such good friends!!! No one has a problemo with anyone and all the
companionships are perfecto!!!! I'm SO GRATEFUL!!!! We have so much fun, and
still learn too!!! It's fantastico!!!!! (Pretty much just add o to the end of
words and you learn about a quarter of EspoƱol just as long as you pronounce
the other letters right, and it's really not that hard, just say the word in a
hispanic accent.) Jaja!!! (Haha,
since the j is pronounced as an h in Espanol!!!)
Well I've been working
out everyday!!! It's my favorite time!!! I miss walking with you!!! A gymnast
hermano y hermanas have been helping me with tuck n rolls and cartwheels!!!! I
can do so much more down here!!! And I've already been able to almost do the
splits!!!! Yeah!!!!!
