Temporarily Settled

Hello my fellow blog viewers! If you didn't get the group e-mail here it is :) 

Hola Everybody!!!! I made it to my first P-day!!!!! Whoot! Whoot!!  It has been a long week, but it has been so amazing!! I love the MTC!!!

                First day I was put into a trio companionship  but then was transferred into another Trio Companionship because the other two sisters were Advance Spanish. But I'm not sad about it, I really loooovve my new companions! :) Their names are Hermana Snyder (from Pennsylvania) and Hermana Aufalo (From Anchorage Alaska) they are both going to Mexico too just not the same mission as mine. Its us three and four Elders in my District. All the Elders are going to my same mission :)

              2nd day here I was called to be the Sister training Leader, it can be very stressful (I have about 5 meetings for it on Sunday ah!) but I love the Job! The girls in my Branch are amazing!!

          On Saturday I went up to Salt Lake to finish up my Visa.  I was paired up with another Hermana and we were riding a train and at one of the Stops this guy got on yelling "I'm in heaven!!" and he looked wasted and lucky us, he stumbled into the seat facing us. And he started asking random questions and I noticed his shirt said "Oktober fest" so I started talking to him about Germany and I guess he just got back from there. We had a neat conversation (the poor sister by me was pretty scared.) and when it came to our stop the Guy handed me ten bucks in a roll of quarters haha and he told us to go get lunch with it. It was really funny and cool :)

          Sunday at relief Society the 2nd Counselor of the Relief Society Presidency (For the whole church!) came and talked to us, it was quite the treat. While she was up there talking she asked all the 1 year converts to stand up. So me and one other girl stood up in the huge crowd (all the sisters of the MTC were there) and to my surprise she told to come up to the stand and tell everybody my conversion story! It was a little scary, but once I was up there I felt just fine :) It was so cool! Standing by here and talking to all the Sister Missionaries of the MTC, definitely an awesome moment I wasn't planning on haha

               Well, Spanish is going alright. I am pretty sure God blessed me with the wrong gift of tongues because Everything is coming into my brain as German and no Spanish haha, my brain is so confused! Herr Corry taught me better then I thought haha. 

I love the MTC!! It has been amazing!! I love you all! and I hope you are all doing well!! :D Thank you to everyone that wrote me! I love hearing from you!! :) If I don't write a personal Email I promise I am not ignoring you its just the time is short and I will get to you next time!! 

Love,

Hermana Orison
