How are y''all? I''m good, the only thing that could change
that is that there''s been a bit of excitement over the stomach flu here at the
MTC. None of my companions has gotten it yet, but there''s still a chance.
haha. All is well, though.
Still a threesome. Being coordinating sister this week has
been interesting to say the least. There were a couple of issues with a few of
the sisters in the zone, which kept me busy, and kept my mind plenty occupied,
but all of tat has been resolved and everyone is content. the only other
problem has been the stomach flu business, which has hit 3 of the 4 other
hermanas. haha. Needless to say, I''ve had duties to complete this week, but
it''s a wonderful opportunity and a wonderful calling.
The MTC does a pretty good job of fattening people up. I''m
pretty sure I''m just about the same, though. haha. Some of the other members
of our zone aren''t so lucky. haaha
The Spanish is coming, day by day. I think I''m doing really
well until I remember that I won''t be able to speak Spanglish if I get stuck.
Its crazy to think that I''ll be giving up English entirely in just a
month. On the other hand, what better language than my native tongue to give it
up for? haha
Alright, I only have just a bit of time more, so I''ll only
say a few more things. Today we got to go to the temple. Today was the first
day it reopened. I forgot how much I missed it and how much I love it. The
temple is truly a house of God, and I love when I get to visit my Father''s
home. It brings such a feeling of peace and calm assurance, the same feeling I
get when I go to my Vegas home, except magnified by millions.
On Dec. 26, yours truly was in the Deseret News. My picture
is in the article about Russell M. Nelson visiting the missionaries on
Christmas. You can find it on LDS. org and look at my face. Eileen, you''ll
recognize the skirt I''m wearing. :) [See Jan 9 2013 blog for link and picture].
This week, I had my first ""holy cow, I''m really
a missionary and I know what it means to be one"" moment. I wrote it
out in a leter to Ari, and I meant to write it here, but I honestly don''t have
time. Maybe you can get her to send you a copy once she receives it in the
mail.
My time is disappearing, so I''ll end with this: I love you
all, mucho mucho mucho! Have a great week, and keep the faith.
Love and love and love,
Marenzi
