Monday, We just had a fun time and messed around. Rested. Cleaned. Ate. I thought it was a great use of preparation day :) Then we had a family home evening with a family in the ward. They are great! It always goes great with them.
Tuesday, We had divisions with the sister training leaders. I was with Hermana Bastidas. She's from Ecuador and just a darling. I love the way she teaches with so much love towards the people. It really helped me a lot :) We had a great day and talked to a bunch of people and found 3 of them who are ready to receive the Gospel. It was awesome! The Spirit was so strong. It made me so happy. We also got hot water in our apartment which is awesome! ha ha
Wednesday, we visited those new people that we met on Tuesday and met some cool new people too. It has been going great finding wonderful new people. That night, my companion and I did our weekly planning and companionship inventory and just talked about everything. We were able to start anew and I feel so much better. I feel like I can be myself again. Our personalities are very different so it was a little hard for a while, but I had sister Finley helping me out :) and God of course. He knows what He does. and He has a purpose for everything.
Thursday. I WAS MEEEEE. I am me!!!!! ahh I love life. We have zone conferences which are great because we see all the progression in all the people being taught and the missionaries, etc. Its so great. We are there with all the missionaries in the zone and its also fun because I'm really good friends with some of those missionaries, but we only see each other on Thursday. From there, we had our lunch with a member. She loves us so much and gave us sushi!!!!!!! ahhhhh it was sooo good!!! :D We had a great lesson with her and left with our hearts and our stomachs full. hahaha from there, we went to an American family's house in the ward because they invited us over for Thanksgiving dinner. it was the sweetest of them!!! It was amazing because I was thinking....one of the best places to put in practice the teachings of the Savior is in our families because it's an atmosphere of love, unity, and hopefully peace.... but there we all were at the dinner table and the Spirit was just so strong because thats what it was, an atmosphere or love, unity and happiness...peace. I loved it! They made us (the American sisters) feel right at home. They also had a friend over for dinner and we talked and she loves what we believe and wants to know more! :) She is so ready to receive the gospel. yaye!!!!! OMG from there we laughed off every calorie we consumed that night. If only I could describe the things that happened. hahahahaha lets just say...we're all really short and sometimes we have problems. haahahah
The rest of the days were great :) We had wonderful experiences and met wonderful people. Also a sister from the ward who I just want to be best friends with. She is sooooooo the best!! :) She is 23 and has two kids, but is always home taking care of the kids, so she was soooooo happy to have us come by and visit her! :) Have people preparing to be baptised as well as the other sisters in our ward. Good things :)
After starting over with my companion, I have been able to be myself and life has turned back to normal. It was just hard because she is so serious. But I love life and I want all of you to love life too!!! That's why I am here. I want people to feel this happiness that i feel!!!! You guys are awesome. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is true. I promise. This life is hard, but its hard because its our time to prepare to return with God :) We´re imperfect and learn from all of our experiences!! I share that with you in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
I love you guys and think of you all the time!!!! I hope you all had a happy thanksgiving and have a great week!!! Good luck with finals coming up!!! :) Pray! Pray every day! God will help you. He loves you.
Con amor,
Hermana Tangedal
