This
week was fantastic! So busy but the week flew buy so fast!
First
of all, we talked with our investigator "Arek" 4 times all fully in Polish
and it is so amazing to see how the Lord works here. The spirit is so strong
and we have definitely seen the spirit working through us in our lessons it was
so amazing!!
Sister
Lidtka and I were planning our last lesson for him and we were getting tired
and kind of stressed cause we know what we want to say to him in English but
then we have to translate it all and it’s so hard! Oh also Arek has been
blessed with attractiveness and we definitely noticed that from the beginning
so we like to joke and talk about it sometimes. So I was flipping through this
Polish workbook thing we use to find sentences we would use in our lesson and
there was a page for like contacting or setting up another lesson and so I
giggled and I said to her, "we should just say this instead of our lesson
and I said it to her in Polish" and then showed her what it meant and it
was.. Let’s exchange numbers. She burst out laughing and we laughed forever!!
She then said and he'll reply with this. Said it in Polish and it was. Let’s
write!
It totally made my day because I love her so
much and we have the same humor and can take a step back and just have fun and
then we rock our lessons because the spirit is there! It’s just so fun! We then
found out that Arek our teacher is from Germany! He’s also married... which
made all the previous things we said about him awkward.. But it also made him
completely not attractive to us so that’ll be less of a distraction so it’s
good! Our other teacher Brad Tribe is the most amazing person ever! He’s so hilarious
and he’s like our friend but still out teacher!
I
miss you all so much! But I love every minute here at the MTC.I can’t go to the
Salt Lake Temple because there are too many Canadians here... UNFAIR! I am
still foreign so this really saddened my soul oh well the church is still true.
The
food is good and my district is seriously sent straight from heaven.Each and
everyone one of them is amazing and I love them all so much.
Thank
you so much for the package!! Those Pres Monson quotes are the BEST everyone is
super jealous that my mom is awesome and they also really liked the donuts :)
Our
Temple walks on Sunday is one of the best things about my week. We get to go as
a district and even though it’s crazy crowded we get to just go for a nice walk
and relax and have fun! It is so nice! Also, I joined choir ! And next Tuesdays
is apparently a very special day!!!! Which means someone super important is
coming for our devotional!!!!!!!! I am so excited!!! Also we haven’t ruled out
the conference thing! There is hope in singing at Conference.
Polish is coming along great. At times I get
discouraged because I want to just say everything but then I realize the amount
I have learned in a week and a half since being here and I see that I’ve
already been blessed with the gift of tongues!! It is so amazing and I love the
language and I love the polish people even though I’m not there yet!
Every
day here is such a blessing and I am so happy to be here! I know that the Lord
has prepared me to be here right now and there’s nothing better than that
feeling! Still pray for me to learn the language but by the time I am done here
I feel like I may have progressed quite a ways! Well let’s hope! Oh and dear
elder is the best! It’s so nice to hear from you and everyone else on a daily
basis it’s sad I can only reply once a week but it’s all good!
Something
amazing I have learned since being here is they ALWAYS talk about obedience
with exactness and I’m like ya ya they always say that but THEN I have seen
what it does in my own life and it’s so cool! So the saying is obedience brings blessings, but obedience
with exactness brings miracles! BOOOOM it’s so cool!! Since I am learning
to speak Polish I need miracles!
So
that’s all for now! I love you and thank you for everything! Say hi to everyone
and give them all a big hug for me! Oh and I got Granny’s dear elders tell her
ill write her? Or email? Give me her email in case and that’s a super good m
day gift and I’m so thrilled she’s going to Palm Springs! Hopefully I’ll talk
to amber soon! I miss you all but there is no greater work than this :)
thank
you!!!! LOVE YOU
