This week has been interesting.
So you all know how I got here with basically nothing. No clothes or shoes or anything. Haha. Well, the people here have been SUPER NICE and have donated a ton of clothes and money to help out the Puerto Rico missionaries!! We have 3 sisters and 3 elders. One of the sisters is hermana Fawcett, who was in my ward at BYU!! And the 3 elders are all from the Dominican republic.
My area is Layton, the ward is called Ellison Park. It's a Spanish ward and covers 3 stakes. But remember, Utah stakes. We go around all day looking for Hispanics. And half the people we talk to are already members.
My companion is hermana bliss from enod Oklahoma. She's super awesome! She's been out for 8 months and this is her first transfer in this area. So we're whitewashing. We share the area with 2 elders (one is elder Martinez from the Puerto Rico group) and 2 other sisters (one is sister peterson from tha mish!)
This week, as I said, was a lot of meetings. We have been going back and forth to the office to just get settled in and stuff. We also had the "quarterly sisters meeting" on Tuesday.
We found one el salvadorian family who we've taught twice. Other than that, we've just been trying to find. Hopefully We'll be able to teach more this week.
It's weird being in the mission with technology. Like We were at a meeting and they said "Ok can everyone open up their scriptures to..." And everyone just pulled out their tablets. Hahaha. Sister Peterson and I were the only ones with real scriptures.
Soooo yeeeah. Utah!!! It's still weird to be here. Haha. I'm just learning how it's going.
Have A gr8 week everyone!!!
