"Wow it has been a crazy five and a half days here at the MTC. I love it here
though. The spirit is so strong if you are doing what you should be. Like in the
other email, I had a reallllllly hard day yesterday. But I am so happy now. As
long as I stay busy and focused I seem to be okay and happy. I think that is
key. Also attitude is EVERYTHING. If I even let one discouraging thing come into
my mind it ruins the whole day. I have to stay positive and happy and focused.
My companion is Sister Chamberlain. I love her so much!! I am so glad I got
someone who is so fun and happy and loving and she is a hard worker. We had a
really cool experience on Friday. We had to teach our first lesson in Chinese.
Holy Moly. The spirit was so strong. Trust me, the spirit taught the whole
lesson because our Chinese is Bu Hao. (no good). It's getting better though. But
our investigator Arwin Lin committed to read the book of mormon and go to
Church. She is incredible I love her so much. She helps us with our Chinese as
well. The language is brutal. So saturday we were reaaaaallllly frustrated
because we had to teach that night and couldn't get it together. I finally had
the thought to see if we could change what lesson we were teaching. So I asked
sister Chamberlain and she said yes. We went through preach my gospel and she
said how about families? And it was exactly what I was thinking so we went with
it and we planned our lesson in a half hour. The lesson went ssooooooo well. It
was incredible. The spirit speaks to us if we just listen to it! It's amazing
how it helps us so much when we feel hopeless. So chinese is so hard! My district is amazing. It is just me and sister chamberlain and then 8
elders. So we have all become great friends. We love each other so much and
really support each other and try to help each other learn. They are incredible. But chinese is rough but I can't imagine
learning any other language. I love you all so much thanks for all the support
and prayers."
Wo ai nimen!!!! (I love you all) It's coming along... ish.
