Week 24?

Happy Holidays!!
Hello everyone:)

This week has been so busy.
We had mission conference This week which was super cool. Our whole mission came to Warsaw. I got to meet some missionaries that I haven't yet. That's what's super cool about being in such a small mission.... you literally get to know everyone. Right now there are I believe 60 missionaries in Poland... 16 of which are sisters. It was so fun to finally meet everyone. It was an incredible two days. We had so much fun and it was spiritual and we are helping trial run a new program the church is launching. It is awesome getting to be here in Warsaw while this is all happening.

Another blessing of being in Warsaw.... the big district! We have 10 people in our district. This is also the only time in my mission I will ever serve with another set of sisters. So naturally we had to take full advantage of that and have a sleepover on Christmas. It was super fun. We had also gone to midnight mass with everyone including our mission leaders and their family. It was such a cool experience.

Sister Dil and I love being able to serve as STL's. It is so awesome to be able to talk with thr sisters and be able to help them. It's also so amazing to be able to get to know them. It is definitely a scheduling... learning opportunity though. We have to schedule a lot of exchanges coming up here which can be challenging since that means going all over the country... and we have a bunch of important events coming up here in Warsaw... so it's fun getting to learn how to balance and coordinate our schedule.
We are so excited though, so many amazing things coming up here soon!

Spiritual thought
Moroni 7:47
But charity is the pure love of Christ, and it endureth forever; and whoso is found possessed of it at the last day, it shall be well with him.

This time of year can be incredibly emotional. As Christ did, it is important for us to act outwards. To show the charitable love that Christ did. It can be easy to become consumed with how we are feeling and only be concerned about ourselves and how our day is going to go. BUT, If we just take a second to put someone else first and have charity... it can truly change someone's day and even life.

I love you all and I am still working on emails so I am sorry if I haven't responded to you yet. I promise I have read your emails and I am going to respond. I can not yell you how much I appreciate every single one. It means the world to me.

Wesołych Świąt!!!

Week 8

hello! We are almost out of here. We have one week left until we are on a plane to Poland. Learning a language in nine weeks is kind of insane... very overwhelming. Next week will be crazy to be immersed in it. We are all so ready but also not at all hahaha so many mixed emotions. We just want to be able to communicate our message with people. With time and practice it will come.  We had an awesome devotional last night by Elder Nattress! I have so much to say about it. It was focused a lot on how the gospel is so personal and how we can be the best missionaries possible. So as usual... if you want to know more... email me:)  I love it when you guys do! I spent a lot of time with a talk given by Elder Christofferson called "The Love of God". I read and listened to it in both Polish and English... and went through breaking down the grammar in Polish.... I am glad I picked this talk to do that with because it is amazing! which brings me to my spiritual thought.  In this tal...

Hello everyone!  I am alive and so well.  I am very sorry its been so long. But I'll catch you up quickly... I got transfered to Katowice. So for the first time in my six months in country, I have new comps, I am with sister wiener and sister tanner. They are awesome! Sister wiener and I got to welcome sister tanner into country and are training. It has been such a blast with them. Sister tanner loves a good movie refrence and made us power puff girl bracelets... funny enough she gave me the bubbles one, which is something my little cousins use to call me so I thought that was adorable.  I am in Katowice and it is so much fun here. We have seen some incredible miracles. We got to be apart of a part of our friends baptism a few weeks ago and then the elders friend got baptised last week in the Lake close by. It has been so much fun. But it is so crazy because we get transfer news next week. We don't know whats going to happen. We have one sister leaving the mission so we d...
