On Friday and Saturday, it was like 80. It was soooo nice. Sunday was 60s and it was still nice. Then BAM. Monday came and it rained all day and hit 40. FOURTY DEGREES. I thought I was going to die. It was so cold. I am a baby now :( And on our way over here, there was some mountains in the back. Guess what we saw?! SNOW. IT SNOWED. What. The. Heck.
Anyways, not much happened this week. Elder Anderson and Elder Morgan left and in came Elder Gibbons and Elder Chavez. Elder Chavez is a greenie (like me!), but his parents are from Mexico, so they speak Spanish. But, Elder Chavez can't speak Spanish, only listen. It's a weird feeling not being the youngest missionary, but it's a good one too!
English classes are getting better and better. We started pairing off in groups, and so it's one missionary with 2 or 3 other people. I got paired in a one-on-one situation with one of the members, and it was such a neat experience! I think I like it a lot better that way because I really have to focus in on what the person is saying to try and help them learn what is correct and what's not. They usually just ask questions about different, random things. I love doing it though, and teaching is improving my Spanish SO much! It's awesome. I love Spanish!
Also had exchanges for my first time! I went with Elder Gibbons and Elder Chavez went with Elder Price. Elder Gibbons is a super good missionary; a lot like Elder Toronto. He's not afraid to talk to everyone about the Gospel, even if the conversation is super awkward. And we had some VERY awkward conversations. But, it was actually a lot of fun! And, slowly, I have come to start doing that more as well. It's a good feeling.
Yesterday was SUPER rainy, so we didn't have much opportunity to contact or teach. One of our investigators, Olga, was supposed to come to a noche de hogar with us, but she had something at work come up. She's a nanny.
And that's my week!
I hope you all have a super wonderful week! Sorry the email was so short this week!
