Hi everyone!
What a week. Well first
things first! My new baby. My companion's name is Hermana Bunderson. She
is from Vernal UT. This week I spent half the week in Woodburn with another
sister that is training so it was kind of all over the place.
When we had our training
meeting President talked about how big of an impact trainers have on there
trainees. He told us all to strive to be
trainers as if it were the Savior. I got
so scared! The first night Hermana
Bunderson and I were together I didn't fall asleep the whole night. The whole night
my mind was racing of how I could best help her. I assume this is what parents
do when they literally have a child haha.
We had some super
awesome experiences talking to everyone. It's a
little different now because I am used to talking like equal time, but it
is awesome because it is helping my Spanish grow so much! We went to go see a
referral from a member and when we got to the referrals apartment the member
happened to be there! So we got to teach
her with one of her family members right there. It was awesome.
We read Alma 24 with
Nazario and Socorro this week about overcoming fears. Our invitation for
Socorro was to think more about baptism. I know that sounds ridiculous but last
time we invited her to be baptized she said no because she hadn't thought about
it haha. She came to church and to an
investigators baptism. In the closing
prayer of the baptism Bishop prayed that she would have an open heart to
baptism. She said she liked the baptism but nothing too special. I love her to
death but sometimes I think I may shake her haha.
We weren't able to see
Maria this week because of conflicting schedules but we have an appointment
with her tomorrow. We have some inspired
questions that we feel can really help her progress. We are starting to do area
book stuff on the iPad's so we have been transferring ALL teaching records to
the iPad. It takes a lottttt of time but
it will be super helpful when we have them all in.
Well I don't have much
for you this week but I love this gospel and I love preaching to the Hispanic
people everyday! And I love you all!
Have a great week! And
happy birthday to Savannah on Sunday!
