Hola mi familia amada!!
How are you all doing? Sorry that I was unable to
write you on Monday. I sure hope that you did not call the mission
offices and ask if I was still living. The elders in the office have told me that
it gets pretty annoying when the parents call. jaja.
I was not able to write due to a Leader Council that we had
with the President and his wife, the Asistents, all the Sister Training
Leaders, and Zone Leaders. We had a little conference and talked a lot
about the plan for the mission so that we are able to then take this
information to the rest of our assigned missionares and animate them. The
meeting was in the Mission Home and it lasted all day. At the end, we all
went to a soccer field to play around, and battle it out. Obviously
President was there as well, running up and down the field. It was pretty
great. He is a great guy and really loves us. The picture of me and Hna
Humacata is at the field.
I dont have a lot of time to update you on the week, so I am
just going to spit out some info instead of writing out and telling my usual
stories. Perdonenme.
First things first. I AM SO TIRED! We are
constantly running and calling, and planning, and solving everyones
problems. It leaves little time for ourselves and our own needs. This
week we did our first exchanges. I was forced to be a big girl haha. No
it went great. I went with Hna Mikolocjik and I love her so much.
She is the tall blonde. Now I am just tired from travelling, and gonig to
3 confernces, exchanges and more this week. It will all catch up on me.
This week we made a cake (a huge alfajore en realidad)
for Hna Ortiz and her birthday. It was crazy being sneaky
"moms" and taking the batter to bake the cake in a members
house. It all turned out well and we partied a little bit (including
jumping on the bed). I may or may not be a good influence on these sister
missionaries. jaja
V*a was not baptized this week, but the hope is not
lost!!! When we went to meet with her, she told us that as she was
praying (Which at first was really hard for her) she felt like she was
floating. In that moment she knew that it was all real what we were
telling her. How exciting right? but it was really funny because
everytime we talked to her a baptism all the times before, she would freak out
and say, "Please lets just take it slow!" But this day when we
arrived, the first thing she causually commented was that she had seen a really
cute white skirt in a local shop down the sreet. And coincidentally, she
was looking for a white modest shirt. All of her thoughts are pointing to
baptism, but she didnt want to tell us she had recieved her answer. As we
kept talking, she finally let us know what had happened and the answer she received.
She was smiling the entire time, and even had tears streaming down her
face. It was a super speacial moment. We are now planning her baptism for
this coming week.
I am super well, and Ive got to get going. Please keep
me updated on Rachel. Let her know I love her.
I am living with a sister from Spain, and her accent of s in
sticking. Kill mylself hahaha.
Love you all and got to go. Keep praying for V*a,
and I am glad that all went safely in Powell, aparte from the nipple biter fish. jej
te amo,
con amor,
Hermana Woolley
