Hola mi familia y amigos!!
I absolutely love the MTC! I have met friends that I will for sure be
friends with forever. I was thinking about how cool it is that we are all here
because we want to serve the Lord! We all came here for different reasons but
the fact that we are all here because we want to be servants of the Lord just
is beautiful to me. I love this work.
Hannah's District
I love the teachers here too. Remember how
I said I was teaching Felix? GUESS WHAT? He is totally my teacher now! His name
is Hermano Byers. Hands down mi favorita teacher. He is the best. I like him so
much because he is SO passionate about being a missionary and serving in every
aspect of his life. It is awesome.
Cool thing that happened this week, I saw one of my dear friends Elder
Gavin Brown AGAIN this week! We went to EFY and college together! He is going to
Germany! It is such a joy seeing your friends at the MTC! I cannot wait to see
my Mare Bear next week! Crazy that Skyline ward will have 2 new sisters
out!
I made my first ever Spanish/English pun. In class one of my teachers,
Hermano Croft asked us, "what can we do better to speak Spanish all of class?" I
said we need to traba-harder! (If you don't know, the verb Trabajar means to
work.) So we made a new word in class. On our white board TRABAJARDER is across
the top. Haha so sad, but it totally made my day. It's the little things.
I have the coolest district in the WHOLE world. We are all brothers and
sisters. It is the coolest environment because we are all helping each other
learn in a spiritual way. I love everyone. There is an Elder here that is going
to be the next Jimmer btw. His name is Elder Dastrup. He is EXACTLY a foot
taller than me. Yes, taller. 6'10. I just wanted you to keep your eye out for
him in 1.5 years. He is amazing, a spiritual giant too.
An Elder from my zone, Elder Hall, is so great at playing the piano.
Yesterday he played two of my all time favorite songs! He played Dawn (Pride
& Prejudice) and the theme from UP. It was awesome to listen to a few things
:) We listen to motab cada la dia. We have been loving listening to that music.
Spanish is going well. I had a slight breakdown the other day. But, I have been
teaching completely en español so that has been good. I had the best discussion
with Jose and Hely yesterday. It was completely in Spanish and it went really
well. Heavenly Father has been helping me out a ton. It is awesome.I love being
a missionary so much. It is so much fun. It is hard work but it is beyond worth
it. I am so happy to be here and I am looking forward to going to Argentina!
A picture of Hannah's lesson plan in Spanish.....looks just like her!
Thank you for all the love and support! LOVE you all!
