Things over here are pounding through! We are approaching the
halfway week, and it feels like I just got here! Sometimes it feels as
though I've been here forever, then I realize it's been a month this
week! I feel the 24 months burning away already! There is not enough
time to prepare myself to teach these people in this very different
language! But I have really grown to trust and depend on the Lord to
help me in that aspect. This last saturday at the TRC, where we teach
people real lessons, I met a man from my mission! He invited me over for
dinner on Christmas! I wish I asked him more about the branch there and
about the progress of the work and the area, but I could hardly
understand anything! They speak so fast! My teachers are amazing though.
I struggled at first here, because there is so much to learn to know
how to prepare well for all the tasks that need to be done as a
missionary, but practice has helped me really to get them down. My
district is doing very well though. Elder Everett is now district leader
and doing a great job! We're learning together and keeping our time and
living spaces in order. Other Elders struggle with that a lot! I am so
excited to get out into the field!
