Hola From the Rica!
JK i still have 3 1/2 weeks in this crazy place. Nah, jk its good here. AND I've got another angel walking with me and helping me out here, Sorry to hear about G-ma Trimmer, I love you all and I Pray for you always!!
So how I was telling y'all about the investigator Pedro last week, we committed him to Baptism. Yeah, and now he's our teacher. hahaha but really, even though its not real, the spirit is, and we are teaching people, not lessons. So as long as we remember that, the gift of tongues will make us throw up spanish. hahaha Sorry about my bad grammar and punctuation and such, I went to Preston High School. hahaha ;)
So i didnt realize how much of going to the temple has such an impact on daily life. I MISS IT. once a week isnt enough!! JAKEY GETS HOME TODAY EVERYBODY!!!!! Like honestly I cannot wait for him to show up. Like sundays around 3:15 at the provo temple, or 1:20 on wednesdays... (hint hint) ;)
So ya know how im like really crazy and super funny and super humble about it? yeah, my district thinks so too. hhaha WE LOVE EACH OTHER SO MUCH!!! honestly they're amazing and we have so much fun. Right when the clock hits 9:02 PM Everybody goes CRAY CRAY. its insane and we cant stop laughing. haha i love it. We have hermana starke who is from cali and she is the sweetest person ever! she gives me food ;) Then hermana mcArthur who is from west jordan, shes a ginger. We get along though..... haha jk no she is so sweet! hahaha then there is elder Chamberlain, he is from layton and probably the most humble person ever he plays soccer.. haha elder marshall is from vernal and such a gentleman, he takes my tray after im done eating. hes our district leader. Elder Blegen is from redmond washington, HE IS HAYDEN. no joke, we get along (or dont) so well and all his personality is hayden straight up, i love him. haha elder hulsey is from arizona somewhere. Elder zuniga is from gilbert az and hes half mexican. and plays soccer too so we get along. hes so sweet. And elder Wintch is from idaho falls. hes sooooo funny i cant stand it.
So we taught something that is called TRC. teaching resource center. people from THE REAL WORLD come in and we just teach them. they are volunteers and they are so nice and so helpful and dont critisize our spanish. hahaha
Elder Scott came yesterday for a Devo. OH MY GOODNESS. Answer to my prayers. I was getting so frusterated with spanish and we were reading from the spanish BOM and i hated it. and i was getting angered. Elder Scott just popped right up and was like PRAY. God is here for you, and everyone learning a language, he will make it easy for you. and this mission will effect your life forever and make you a better mom and wife. So im like boom, im where im suppose to be, and i love spanish now. ok thats a lie, but its gonna be something i love :) as soon as i can master it. haha Our whole district cried last night during our testimony meeting. we're cute, and im a baby. So hermana starke said closing prayer in spanish on sunday for sacrament meeting, and she said thanks for the oppritunity to take the priesthood... not the sarcrament. hahaha super funny. esta bien cause we're learning. OH SHARP FAMILY. Josh Wadsworth was my teacher the other day. funny huh??
Soooo we get 4 new roommates today, cause our other 3 left for the field, so that was sad. For our service projects on fridays, we clean one of the girls dorms... its gross. I never want to have girls... ever. haha chiste, its just gross..
Its crazy how awful the world is getting! im glad i dont have to worry about that. or the cold in the Rica. haha as long as im doing the Lords work, i'll be blessed and protected. soooo my favorite scripture story is nephi building a boat. 1 nephi 17 verses 50-51 are my fav. read it, love it, do it. ;)
For the next couple weeks we are teaching 2 investigators. so i'll let you know how that goes. nothing too exciting to say.. i'll send pics quick in a new email.
p.s. make goals. they help alot. Thanks for the pics of hayden at prom :) miss and love all of you soooo much!!! <3
peace and blessings from Sister Ginger xoxoxo
