Six Months!

I know I know... two emails in one day... but that last one was last weeks. 

This week was awesome. 
We had exchanges which are always so busy for us. We did one with the social sisters and then the Lublin sisters. Thankfully they were both in Warsaw, so no traveling. It's hard when we have ti go other places cause it's literally a trip across the country, so the one day exchange takes three. But I love exchanges. We get to learn so much. This week I especially loved being with Siostra Gay. She was in my mtc group. It was like being home. It was so awesome. We had a great day serving together. 

This week went to a members house who finally likes me!! She isn't fond of those who's Polish is not great. BUT, I spoke a good chunk of the spiritual thought and she smiled the entire time and gave me chocolate and oranges after. She almost put me into a diabetic coma with how kuch orange juice she was forcing me to drink. But it was worth it, she likes me :)

Finally, we hung out with niels again. We went to his place three times this week. His stories continue to amaze me. He has been through I think the hardest life. I hope I can tell you all about it one day... but it's so hard to write about. I will tell you guys about Dmytro next week. That man is the most incredible example of selflessness, charity, and service i have ever seen in my entire life. 

Celebrating six months with sister gay was awesome. It was so cool being in the field with her and teaching! 

I love Poland and I am loving the Polish language. 

This week i have an invitation for you guys! I hope some of you take me up on it:) 
I invite you all to volunteer! Whether it is at a homeless shelter or wherever!!! Find an opportunity to serve!!! There is such a great need for it. Please send pictures !!

I love you and hope you have a great week
(I'll be able to get out the last of my response this week. I'm so sorry it's taking so long. But I love you all and I can't thank you enough for each email.),

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...
