Well well well.
I'm training. You already knew that. But cool story hansel:
So on Sunday before in got my trainee, I was praying about it and just
had this feeling that I would know her. For me that was ultra
comforting because it brings comfort and blessings come with
familiarity. So I went to the trainers meeting early Tuesday morning
and was welcomed by hermana monson and Jackson both training new
Spanish sisters. After our long meeting the we left the room and the
greenies went in. Then we met them. I saw one who looked familiar from
byu but nothing like friends so I just waited till I saw their faces,
I was making thee previous judgements from the back of their heads....
Yeah that's me. Ultra creep. Anyway so finally this one turns around
and we were like Hey we know each other. Your friends with Connor
Townsend and I had you dance in the music video I made with kk and ash
T at the beginning of the semester. Yes we know each other. Hannah
Woolley is from draper Utah and went to byu and dated a mutual friend.
Well is still in the relationship with him while they are on their
missions... She is great and I was soo happy. Gah it was the bomb.
And
this week has been GREAT, lots of praying but great. The Lord has
given me so much strength and confidence to teach this sister to do
the work right. It's all him. Seriously. Every night I'm like thanks
for keeping it going today cause if it wasn't for you I probably
wouldn't have talked to that guy that took the card or the woman who
needed a hand. Small blessings and large miracle can come from
humbling ourselves and allowing The Lord to use us as instruments in
his hands. I know that to be true. So for the work it has been rough
because we dropped two gators this week. One was an old woman who just
didn't want to be converted and the other was a lady we met on
Wednesday and then went back Saturday to find out she is ultra solid
in her church and not willing to change... Rough for sister Woolley. I
am just trying to make this work as great as it can be because she is
so on fire from the MTC and is starting to realize that the work isn't
just teaching every hour of the day. So we always make the work fun...
My favorite thing! The best was Saturday at the food trucks because we
got to have fish tacos and just enjoy the company of others in this
crazy state we live in. Also I was congratulating a member of our
ward, Megan courchaine on getting into byu and then she was like oh
I'll see there winter semester... I couldn't believe that. Too soon.
Ahhhh. Crazy, 9 months has FLOWN BY! Next transfer I get talk see your
faces again. Weird. I feel like I just saw you. Not in a bad way but
for reals. Crazy. Where does the time go. So how is everything.
Florida weather is getting warmer. Great....
Well this week I sure am grateful for prayer and the answers we can
receive from our father in heaven especially as we account for what we
have done to act and build his trust to receive those answers and
blessings. The church is true. I love the work. I'm grateful I can be
here. I love you all too much! Thanks for the envelope and photos mum
and dad and the letter bro I'll write back ASAP.
Lots of love. Tsi chin (phonetically means bye in mandarin...I'm
learning it from Megan)
