Last Week with my Gringa companion

4/30/2007

Well, here we are, yet another week here in Frutillar. Today is our last play together, my comps last play on the missnio. So, next Wednesday are the cambios and I will be getting another comp and i imagine that i will be here still. So I won’t write next Monday but will write on Wednesday.

So last week i got my packages from you guys. I got them so quickly. Thank you so much for everything. Erica you have a lot of time on your hands but I loved the movie, even if dad was mooning me, we laughed so hard. It was great. But the movie was really cute and boy alli can talk. And yes the balloons made it still blown up. I sent a package to you mom and dad today, it is stuff that I want to keep but don’t want to pack around with me all the time.

So last week, my comp cut my hair for me. It is short, she cut like two or three inches off of it, i love it because it was getting way long.

Mom you were living it up on your vacation, be careful. you wild woman you. That is great you all had such a great time. And thanks for letting me know how wonderful it is when I will have two years of pure winter, now it is not only cold but it is a wettttttt cold, not like punta arenas, a dry cold. So it is very different. I bought the mac daddy of umbrellas though because I have broken two playing with them, oooppps. I have learned my lesson and bought the beast and not going to play with her now.

Nana and papa, I don’t write anything inspiring, I just write you what is happening to me and what I am learning while I am here.

So, yeah I have almost wet my pants more in these last few weeks than ever, we all know I have bladder problems and then we get laughing and can’t stop. We are wayyyyyyy to sarcastic. Maybe that is why I haven’t had gringa comps, so I couldn’t be so sarcastic. It is funny though, we make everyone laugh. It is funny because we are so the same but soooooooooo different. But I have had a lot of closeeeee calls with the bathroom, but my comp the worst, it was hilarious she had to stop in the street and wait, go, wait, go, wait, so funny.

So we had our conference this week and it was really good. I have finally met more people not being stuck and hid away from everyone . I saw hna morphis again, it was good to see her. She seems to be doing great in chiloe. We talked a bit. I also saw hna aros, who was in punta forever with me. She was down there longer than I was. She is awesome. She surprised me, she missed me so much and was sooooooo happy to see her. It was sooo good to see her .she is awesome. It is amazing what you do or the impressino you leave with people and you have no idea what you have done in their life. It made me feel good that i had been a good friend to her. I am sure I will see her again but you never know.

So don’t worry, I have not changed one bit. I lose eveyrthinggggggggggggg. I have lost my wallet, found it, with all my money in it. Here they use a tonnnnnn of coins so I have a little thing just for coins, lost that, found it, with all my money in it. I lose eveyrthingggggggg and people think I am so organized, think if I was less organized how much I really would lose.
I think hna agurto is coming tomorrow to go out and teach with us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh . she is awesome.


So, we had a good week this week. We had been slacking the other weeks not going exactly what we should be doing. We got a little lax and lazy. I have had a really really hard time focusing myself on the work here. I have not been able to stop thinking about alejandra and what was happening with her. I have been so worried about her and worried that she would not come back to church. I haven’t been able to focus on the people here and how I can help them and what I can do for them. And my comp with her own trunkiness. So this week we decided to have a little attitude change and go back to the missionaries that we were before. it is amazing how a slight attitude change can change everthingggggggggggggggggggggg. We improved soooooooooo much. We had a great week and we have people progressing, we are getting more support from the members, we are really seeing things slowly happen. We were able to finish the week great. It is amazing how the lord can bless us when we give him our will and just do what he wants and not let us get our pride in the way. It is amazing.

So, more than anything, i have gained such a testimony of the scriptures and how they lead and guide us and console us, how we can find al the answers to the life in those books all we have to do is apply them. It is amazing everything from, menos activos, activos, non members, whatever you want, there is something there for everyone. I always knew it but never had it work in my life. I am learning so much from the scriptures, it is amazing. please read them, all we need is there, to get through this life and to be happy. i just wish that people would remember the spiritual experiences they have and not lose their testimonies or understand how perfect t he message is that we teach, that there are prophets, that we have the restored church that there is only one church, it is so prefect and so clear. but Satan works so hard and knows our weaknesses and uses our pride. I just wish that I could teach the people with the faith and the testimony i had and did when i was in pto varas teaching alejandra. I had faith then that could move mountains and do miracles, and it did, the love and faith I had. I just pray that I can develop that to apply in every place i am in with however I am with. I know she was a special case but i want to be able to have that for everyone. because with faith like that nobody can deny what we are teaching or sharing. i truly love the gospel. it is amazing. i am so blessed with a family in the church and a family that has taught me so much. i have shared so many family experiences that are helping people now. i am grateful we aren’t a perfect family but we try and do our best and try to work through the tuff times, and that is what it is all about. i can’t wait to go to the temple with everyone and granny. it will be awesome. love ya all.

I’ll write next Wednesday with who I am going to be with, who knows, who it will be , my comp thinks i am going to train but that is not the case. take care. until next week. read your scriptures every dayyy.
love, hna jamie pratt

Watch those Apples!

4/23/2007

So, I can’t believe that my parents’ are writing me telling me how great their lives are traveling around with great weather and all we see here is rain rain rain rain. But that is awesome that you guys are having fun. Good for you. About me week, it has been very very very interesting to say the least. (We had gone to Santa Monica and stayed at the beach for our anniversary. It was nice but it did rain.)

First of all I forgot to tell you last week that I had gotten food poisoning and puked three or tour times, I have never gotten sooooooooooooooo much food poisoning but I felt so much better alter getting it all out, I am getting fairly good at it now.

So last week it was awesome, I was able to talk to Alejandra. She is amazing. We talked for awhile and they were really progressing. mattias was reading the book of mormon every day and really into it and he was going to church with her. She had her interview with the bishop to Start the repentance process, it was awesome. She told me that I am the reason that she is going back to church. I was the one that had changed her life and opened her eyes again to see what she needed to do and how she needed to change. It was so awesome. I felt so good that i was able to really be the lord’s tool to help someone out. It was amazing.

So we had a noche de talentos. And we were in charge. And I hate talent shows, I have always detested them. But we were wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy pumped for it. We took the Shania twain song man I feel like a woman and we changed the words to it to the life of a misionera. Of course in Spanish and then we acted it out. It starts out with waiting for the call, getting to the field, the middle of the mission with everyone getting married and having babies, and then the end of the mission and we don’t want to leave. It was absolutely hilariousssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss. Afterwards, my head hurt from laughing so much. I video tapped it so I will get on it and make a copy of it and send it to you but you won’t understand and so I will have to translate it so you get how hilarious we are!!!!!!!!!!!!! We laugh a tonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn together. I think each day I laugh so hard I cry on average, like three times. It was awesome.

Oh yeah, so word of advise, don’t play baseball with an umbrella and an apple because you might put a hole in it and will get crooked. I had to buy another one LLL. Oops. J gotta have fun right! J It was my comps fault, she is the one who threw the apple at me!

So my comp told me that the other day I was talking in my sleep and it was in Spanish, that is funny! I didn’t even know I talked in my sleep.

So, we have been working with a lot of families that all of them aren’t members of the church. It was been interesting why people become inactive, most of them for not having testimonies or something happened with another member. It has been very interesting to be able to use my own life experiences and help these people. I never thought that all the things that I have gone through or the things as a family we have gone through or our family members would have been able to help other people so much. I have almost shared everything that has ever happened to me, bad, with the people here to show them how we can overcome things, be better, stay strong, and how there is hope. It is amazing because they think we are so perfect as missionaries and then we share these things and they see we are normal people that have used Christ to get through things. To be better and yet we can stay strong in the faith and in the church and only with the help of Christ can we do it all. I had somebody thank me yesterday for sharing with them things that have happened in our lives. It is cool to see how everything happens for a reason. And yet how we truly can be happy people if we live the gospel, with Christ’s help we can be happy even though we have a lot of problems and trials. It is awesome. It is neat.

So, I had the worst thing happen to me this week and I have never felt so badly before. So like Thursday or Friday alejandra calls me. I didn’t want it to be her because I knew if she was calling it would be something baddddddddddddddddd. And it was. I have never been left so incredibly speechless in my life. Before when she would give me bad news I would talk her out of it and tell her how she can get through it and how she can work it out. This time, I had nothing to say. She told me to call the missionaries and tell the elders that they couldn’t come by any more. There was an incident with the bishops family, his parents and siblings and mattias doesn’t want anything to do with the church and neither does she. She told me what happened and it wayyyyyyyyyyyy bad. She is sick and she has depression and she can’t take these ups and downs all the time. She said that life was so much easier before she started trying to go back to church and it will be better to just not and be how they were before. She cried, I cried but couldn’t because I was so dumbfounded. I felt like someone had ripped my heart out and was stomping on it. Yeah and so I couldn’t even talk to her about what she should do or how she can’t give up. I could only imagine how badly she feels, because to have the guts to be able to call me and tell me that after everything that has happened, how we have seen so many miracles together, and how close we have gotten. Every day i have prayed that this part would be easy for her after everything that has happened to her. Satan doesn’t want her to come back to church that is for sure. He knows what she is capable of. The worst is that all I want to do is help her, I want to go to her house and share scriptures with her and things that will help her keep going. But I can’t. I can’t do anything. I am just here helpless. My comp has helped me a lot. I realized how the only thing that made me feel better, that was able to take the pain away from my heart were the scriptures, I immediately went to the book of mormon and it was the only thing that could help, the teachings of the prophets, it is amazing. I have grown such a testimony of the scriptures, they really to change your life, really to give you allllllllllllllllll the answers you need, tell you everything you have to do in this life to be happy. They really to guide you. These experiences are helping me gain the strong strong testimony of these things to help other people. I have alwayssssssssss had the testimony but now I am gaining the experiences to go with my testimony. It is really cool. But still, I just hurt for her. I have never felt like this before. The worst was that I was totally over it and got refocused in being here in frutillar, we have our branch conference yesterday and el presidente y hna faulkner estan. Yeah, so everything starts and all of a sudden someone walks in the chapel, alejandra´s sister!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Of alllllllllllllllllllllll people, I was like, why is she here to remind me of everything to think of why it can’t be alejandra, and alllllllllllll the feelings and thoughts came back again. I can’t explain what I feel for her. I just want to help her. I know she has to walk on her own, keep herself on the right path. I have faith in her. She can’t deny the spirit we felt when we would be at her house as we would teach. She can’t deny the dream she had and how god lead us into each other’s lives and if we weren’t in the true church that would have never happened because the prophet and el pres de la mision could have never put me where i needed to be to be able to find her at the exact time. It is all true. She can’t forget. Please just pray for her, please. She means so much to me. Just pray please.

So we are here in frutiallar, my comp has 2 weeks left on her mission and we are trying to stay focused and do the best so she can finish strong.
I have learned more in this last month than I have in my entire life. i have grown so much spiritually, and obviously physically as well. we have so much fun and we teach so well together. we are truly happy even thought we have a lot of crappy things happening to us right now. but in the end we have our faith in the lord, and know that he is taking care of us and leading us to what we are doing. I know alejandra is in the Lords´ hands and she is one of the strongest people I have ever met. I know she can’t deny what has happened and how much they had progressed and improved as a couple, como matrimonio. I know she will get back from her vacation and know that she needs to keep going to church. she knows I am fighting for her and many others. I know god has a plan and I need patience. I need to accept his plan. we have our conference this week on Wednesday in puerto montt. I will see hna morhips for the first time. she will see how fat i have gotten :) maybe hna agurto will come see us to, we will see, she writes me every week. she is awesome. anyway, take care.

and no, nothing with the earthquake, we weren’t effected. sorry.

love ya all!!

Congrat's To Gran

Gran Baptism Day

Looks like lot's of fun to be had.

4/16/2007

Well. Hello to the family. It seems like it has been a long time since I have written but it hasn’t. Well, Erica, I don’t remember if I have Ethan’s pictures or not, you sent me some pictures of him in like an orange and blue sweater, I don’t know if that is it or not. Grandma Nina’s eulogy was really good papa, it was sweet. I couldn’t even say eulogy the other day and my comp was making fun of me. We make fun of each other’s English, it is really terrible. We speak a lot of spanglish and it is really funny how things come out sometimes because I don’t think you guys would be able to understand me very well. Such is life.

Granny´s baptism pictures were really cute, will you guys send me some hard copies of them, thanks that would be great.

I forgot to tell you all about my Easter, oh yeah, we didn’t have an Easter, it was just a normal Sunday. It was a normal day as usual, nothing special. The people here weren’t that into it either, we make things a big deal in the states, everything here is much lower key, such is life.

So we are having so much fun together here, there are things that I haven’t said or heard in a really long time in English and it is a lot of fun. The other day it was way dark because all the lights went out and my comp was doing a contact in the street, you couldn’t see very much so I was behind her skipping to try to make her laugh, I know I am bad but it was hilarious, I so had her too. It was great. So life is a lot of fun. She has told me how grateful she is to be with me for her last cambio. We have lots of energy to work and we teach really well together, it just flows, so it is really nice. She knows a lot of vocab too and so that is really nice, I can ask her what the words mean that I don’t understand, so that is great. That is a big benefit of being with a gringa.

So, the other day we were in pto varas, and it was funny. Winter has pretty much started and it has been raining bucketsssssssssssssssssss for a week straight now. One day we were sooooooooooooooooooooooooo soaked. I have never worn rain boots before the mission but now, everyyyyyyyyyyy day. It is funny with a skirt but it is life. So we get soaked. But yeah, we were in pto varas and I was looking at buying a good umbrella so i asked the guy if I could go outside to open it. Well somehow I push the umbrella and it totally goes backwards!!!!! I am in the middle of downtown not knowing what to do with this upside down umbrella and I can’t get it back to normal to close it. My comp yells at me que hiciste, which was hilarious because we don’t talk in the form she should have said hizo, because hiciste is too familiar for missionaries, so I am dying laughing at that and yelling ayudeme, help me help me. And the owner is like what is going on and I just don’t want to have to buy an umbrella because I broke it, it was hilarious!!!!!!!!! We laughed forever. We about died, it doesn’t sound that funny but it was.

So we had the most interesting experience this week. One of our investigators needed someone that knew English to translate for her work. They are building a huge resort here in frutillar that is going to be on Chile’s first real golf course by jack Nicklaus. So we went. It ended up that some big guys were there, a pres of a bank here in Chile, the president of the Hyatt hotels, a famous actor that we don’t know his name, and a bunch of other guys that are absolutely loaded. Banked. So they were there to look at the property and see what they were going to put their money into. It wasn’t what we thought it was, we ended up serving them food and snacks. We just knew our investigator was in dire need and we were going to help her. They smoked and drank and were talking all their big money talk and how they are going to make things expensive to get more money, how they are going to win the people over. We spent almost the entire day with them and listening to them talk about their project. We went to the guy’s house that was huge and just could see the money. And it was so incredibly sad how much he has and how little the people have like a mile away from his house. How these guys have absolutely everyhthinggggggggggg they need as far as money goes. And the world thinks that these guys are so happy, they think that is what everybody wants, money and that is it. But it was so interesting to look into their faces. We spend a lot of time with people, happy and sad. You can tell the people have god in their lives and who doesn’t. As we talked with them and watched and listened. We realized that these men have nothing. They are not happy. They probably don’t even think about god, or have time to worry about praying or what a prayer even is. They think their families are prefect because they have everything, but how often are they with their family or do something as a family. When was the last time they really worried about what their family is doing and how they are, not just if they have everything worldly that they need. All the money they have now is going to stay here when they die and will do them no good in the next life. What good are they doing, just trying to get more money. It was very interesting because it made me really realize the people that are happy, the people with the gospel, what really is important in this life, and it isn’t the money. I have grown to hate money, Satan just uses it go destroy people and their families, money and sex are his greatest tools and it is so sad how it ruins people I wish the people could just see what it is doing to them, all work and no time for the fam. A big eye opener really.

So it has been really interesting. I know that we all pass through problems for a reason. For the first time in my life I really feel like that everythinggggggggggg I went through in high school I can now use for good. There is a girl that we are working with and a lot of things that are similar that I went through. Not the same but just similar, with people talking bad about her and so forth, long story. It is so interesting. I am able to share with her things that happened to me and it is totally helping her to know what she needs to do and be able to get through all this stuff. It makes me grateful for what i went through to be able to help someone else in their life.

So that is us, just in the pouring down rain. Happy birthday Chris and happy anniversary mom and dad. Thanks for all the letters in how warm it is how it is great hat summer is coming and all that. We are freezing and tomorrow we are going to have our heat finalllllllllllllyyyyyyyyyyy.

I had to give the talk in church yesterday, bienvendia!! Htey are already taking advantage of us. We are having a talent show tomorrow and it will be great, we are going to do a number of shania twain, man I feel like a woman, but words for being an hermana, it is going to be hilarious.

I was going to tell you something else but I forgot. I just talked to alejandra. she finally went to the bishop for an interview, they are going to give her two months of going to church and all and then have her disciplinary counsel again. please keep her in your prayers. she needs all the help she can get. I am so happy that she has started the process. I love the mission. It is amazing and I am so incredibly blessed, rain and all. love ya all. take care. until next week

The Work is Awesome in Fruitillar

4/09/2007

Well hello there. Congrats to granny for her baptism. Her pictures are absolutely adorable. They are so cute and she is so dang skinny. That is really exciting that she finally got baptized, and so now in a year she can go to the temple and be sealed to poppy, that will be rad. So, a few months after i get home we can all go to the templeI will get to be there for that. That will be sweet, so everybody better Start planning becuase i can be there for that part.

So frutillar is awesome becaue they absoluely love us here. Yesterday in church all of the members in Thier testimonies thanked us for being here and how awesome it is that we are here in the Branch and how much the Branch needs us. They said that elder holland came here to frutillar when he had his calling here in chile and he said that he felt something special here and he immediately caled slc to tell them that they needed to add on to the chapel because he knew the pepole were going to do great things here. So that is cool to know that we are going to be apart of that and that we are here in the Start of it all, the Start of the growth of the work here. The people are soooo ready for us hnas. It is awesome, we really can get into places that the elders can´t and it is aweosme. We have seen so many miracles here already in a few short days. They have accepted us very very well here.
The only thing that stinks that is that we are going into winter and we have nothinggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg to heat us up, we are totally dying. We keep waiting for the misión to buy us somethng to heat us up but the dumb elders keep forgetting to ask. So we are pretty much frozen allllllllllllll the time. I don´t even like going home or having to shower or anything where you have to be in the house or change. We heat up water bottles and then hug them. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrr. The trail of our faith.

But we are totally exhausted becuase we have taught more than ever. We have taught a ton and so it is so hard becuase it is more exhausting than just walking around all day becuase you get spiritually drained. But it is aweosme too. We are really seeing how timing is everythinggggggggg. How people just happen to fall into our path, how we just happen to find people, meet people. Or whatever. It is amazing. I love it. Nothng is a coincidence when it comes down to it. The lord is showing us that he really has his hand in everthing and even when we don´t know we are working for him and doing what he wants, he is still using us and whispering things to us. It was aweowme at chruch yestrday they said there was a ton of people there, more than usual and they said thanks to us for the people that we were visitng, all of the menos activos that we have visited all came to chruch and we had investigators and all, so it was cool
We had a baptismal invterview set for sat so we could have a baptism this next week of an elderly couple. Well, in the end their faily started talking trash and now they don´t want to get baptized. And they were sooooooo ready and knew everything and were pumped and happy and committed. Satan really knows how to get at us, really knows how to change us. It is so sad because now they aren´t happy like before, they are different, the light has been drained out of them, they just aren´t the same. So we were bummed but going to keep working with them. They are starting to use their minds to reason things out instead of go wtih what they feel in their hearst.
But it is awesome here with being able to go places where the missionaries never have been becuase they never had time. We are truly blessed to be here, expect we don´t have heat. But we have sooooooo much work, we have found soooo many new people. It is so exciting. I love it. We really did have an amazing week. We are so blessed. We are finding people left and right that are just so ready and are seeing the miracles in their lifes. It is just up to us if we are going to be able to teach them well enough to keep their testimonies firm and true. That they can feel the spirit as we are with them to gain a testimony of the things that we share wth them. We have to keep on top of it and do the best that we really can. It is cool to be with my comp, she has a ton of energy and we are having a lot of fun. She is really funny, we laugh a lot. It is crazy becuase she goes home soon. Such is life. But she always tells me that she is so glad that she is here with me for her last transfer, she is very happy. So that is alwasy nice. So that is me. Here in frutillar living it up with colddddddddddddness.

Every Week Gets More Interesting and Wonderful!

4/2/2007

Well, life has been very very interesting in these last few days. I have had some interesting experiences to say the least. I saw hna agurto, she is doing awesome as ever, i cant wait to see her again and hang out, she was like, wow hna you talk! It was funny.

That is so awesome about granny, i am so pumped for you all. You will have to send my pictures of course. That is rad. It is about time. It is a great blessing in our family. I am glad. And i am really sorry to hear about grandma Nina. She is wayyyyyyyyyy better off now then she was here. It is sad to think that she has passed on but I know she is relieved of all of her pains and her sickness. She lived a long long life. Send my love to papa. I know that papa loved her dearly because he always did everything he could for her. I am sorry i can’t be there for the funeral but i am there in spirit.

So, we really haven’t met the ward yet because we had general conference but we had to travel back and forth to pto varas so we could match it, it is about a 40 bus ride. So we did that twice this weekend. The Branch is soooooooooo incredibly excited to have sisters. They love us, they way want the hnas and the other wards were like, why don’t we have hnas. So it is awesome. We got a hugeeeeeeeeeeeee greeting, they are way pumped to have us. It Hill take me awhile to get used to the Fact that i am in a Branch and not a ward. such is life. So life is great with them and the pres is awesome, he is a great guy.

So, because we had to go to pto varas these last few days i got to see Alejandra yesterday. She is seriously amazing. It was the greatest miracle, her husband mattias went to church!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was aweosmeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. I know he is going to get baptized, i was sooooooooooo pumped to see them there. The night before i called them up so they could feed us lunch, so we ate at their house between the conference. It was good. Alejandra is a very observant person and she told me that i looked sad. I didn’t realize it but i really had been sad since i found out that i was leaving pto varas. I wasn’t ready to leave, i was hardly there at all. I wanted to stay with Alejandra, i wanted to work with her more. I didn’t realize that i really was having a hard time adjusting to the other area, where we don’t know anythingggg, we are learning though, we are figuring it all out. But we talked for a little while. I figured out that i was sad because i didn’t know what was going to happen with us, if i was going to stay in contact with her or what. As we talked i realized that we really did form an eternal friendship in a few short weeks. That she is doing great and she really is going to be re-baptized. She wants to be baptized when i can be there to see it. She is planning on coming to the states when i get back and she told me she wants to do friend things with me, not just missionary things (ring any bells JJJ the story of my life…waiting). I am so incredibly blessed to have met her. There is something so incredibly special, she wrote in my bom thank you for keeping your promise and finding me. So, now, i talked to my comp about everything and i am good to go. I am back with all of my excitement and all to work hard and find people where we are. The people there are great and receptive, we have found a ton already and miracles are happening, we are planning a baptism for two weeks from now. I know that i will see Alejandra and we will be friends forever. I think we are going to eat lunch with her today. Mom, you need to email her to hook her up with celion dion, Alejandra@aquamotion.cl she is going to vegas sometime in November i think.
So life really is great. My companino is great but it is soooooooooooooooooooo werid to be with a gringa, it is soooooooooooo weird. And yes we speak a lot of English but i am trying not to. It is different because we have the same culture and same background. She is a lot of fun and has a ton of energy. She is awesome.


So the members of the ward that i just left were way sad that we were leaving. I made a good friend there too. I put her in charge of Alejandra, to have fhe’s with her and mattias and to make sure she stays in the church and has a friend there. This hna is awesome, we always talked a ton. She is fun. I made a lot of good friends there in a very very short time. The lord knows why i am not there right now, it wasn’t what i wanted but it is the best and i feel like it is the best. Unfortunately i am an all or nothing kind of person and with the good friends i made there i am an all person and i can’t give my all in a friendship because i am a missionary. But i am good now, my comp is being very patient with me talking about eh miracles that have happened with Alejandra. I was reading my journal when i first met her and it was incredible what i wrote, how pumped i was to meet her and how special i thought she was the very first time i met her. It is amazing. Oh and mom, don’t be mad but i gave her the skirt and shirt from Macys , the black and maroon one, she loveddddddddddddddddddddddddd it. Oh another cool thing, so we were watching conference and in the last session they sang i need thee every tour, it is one of my favorites. One day when Alejandra was doing bad we called her up and sang that song to her on her voice box. Yeah, we all know how well i sing. so she got all excited that they were singing it, i started singing with the choir in english, and all of a sudden i hear that Alejandra is singing, IN ENGLISH, she knew the words, and she was like no, i don’t know the words, she said she just started singing it like she knew it, it was really cool and really weird, it just CAME to her mind. Maybe we used to sing it before. She is amazing. It has been an amazing experience and i still can’t believe it. But god is amazing and now her husband is more interested in the church and they are doing better as a matrimony. I am so blessed and alter all is said and done, i can only say that the chruch is true and if it wasn’t i wouldn’t be here, i Would have never found her and she Would have never had that dream with me in it. The misión is amazing and i have so many blessings and wonderful experiences. It is really hard to leave people that you have grown so close to but really this life is just a small time. But i am doing great and having a ton of fun with my new comp.
so yes we are speaking a lot of English and my comp has told me manyyyyy times already how much my English is bad. we sang in English and we both realized how i rolled my r´s!!!!!!! oh no!!!!!!!
