This week was a bit different than normal! hahaha
So it might be a little confusing for you guys this week but I will try to explain as much as I can...I didn't expect to be invited to sit in on the meeting with them because I am not a sister training leader like Sister Penni is- and usually when she meets with him, I just want out in the office with the office Elders-- but Presidente said that he wanted to get my input on everything as well and so I came in and started helping too! That was fun! I felt special- maybe that's why he invited me to help plan it... either way.. I was happy to be included!
I asked if maybe we could give a handout to all of the sisters- (42
in the mission) and Presidente said that he would love it if we could
make something for the sisters------ also Penni is going to be speaking
on not just being a young woman on a mission but being a daughter of God
called to serve him--- I am super excited!
So this whole
weekend- Penni and I have been with Sister Pereira in the office working
on PowerPoint, handouts, and coordinating the travel plans for all of
the sisters.. its been a lot of work but its been a blast!!! The sisters
will all arrive this afternoon!!!!And Presidente asked me to spend time this week with his wife teaching her English and translating for her as she is finishing planning their daughters wedding-- Sister Pereira will travel later this month to the states for her daughters wedding and wants to be able to communicate with the grooms American family... I am excited for this!!!
Sister Penni has to do divisions with other sisters all week- and I
will probably do that as well--- I think she will do splits with Sister Ferguson and her companion and so I might get to spend a day working the
streets with Sister Ferguson!!!! haha and then Sister Penni and I will go back to work
as normal----
Right now with teaching, we haven't had many people because we haven't
been in our area very long and this week we worked in the office all
week-- but we are helping to activate lots of families and trying to
have family nights with part member families! We have a great ward and
are hoping to make a difference there! One lady we visited that I talked
about last week- D. was inactive but now after we visited her has
been at church these last two weeks!! The bishop is soooo grateful! I am
learning lots and am so grateful to the lord for all of the tender
mercies he has shown me!!! My testimony is growing more and more
everyday and I am so lucky to be here doing this right now!
Thank you guys for always being supportive!!! I will write more next week!! LOVE YOU SOOOO MUCH!
