MTC Week 7

Dearest Khrccbkhrua, (Pretend like the c's are backwards...it makes the awh sound)

 

Hello I love you! Happy Easter!! Thanks for the package! I just love this time of year! They are planting tulips here at the MTC and I really hope they start to bloom before we leave. How is everyone? I got an email from Nick this week, it sounds like he's working hard, loving his companion, and just being a good missionary. I am so excited to see Aubree here!!! And Conference is coming up! AH! I just can't wait!

 

So, I was asked to be a coordinating sister...like a week and a half ago. I check in with the senior companions, make sure everything is good with the khuu-ship and give support and love to all the Sisters. It kinda feels like a visiting teaching coordinator thing. I love getting to know everyone. The coordinating sisters before me used to come around every night and check in and chat and it was always such awkward timing because everyone was getting ready for bed, writing in their journals and winding down from the day - not much time ya know? I really felt like I didn't want to do that. There were a couple things I wanted to differently actually. Last night, we (There are 2 coordinating sisters) decided to write down a scripture on a sticky note and doorbell ditch it on their doors. It was so much fun! I hope this can be a way to show our love and support without taking up everyone's night time. Maybe I'm just thinking way too much about this. Anywho, love these sisters, learning how to be a better leader and serve the sisters around me.

 

I am leaving April 8th. I am not counting down. I'm doing my best to be in the middle. Go read the talk about that from Elder Uchtdorf. Love it. I am so grateful for the time I've had here in the MTC to study the scriptures,  study the language, and learn the fundamentals of teaching. I honestly feel like I've learned more about how to be abetter teacher in these 7 weeks than I have learned in a whole semester of Education classes at BYU. My teachers are AMAZING. I'll tell you all about them someday.

 

This week I've thought alot about faith. We read Alma 32 together as a distric and it was so wonderful to hear everyone's insights. I really loved verse 22. It reminded me of God's love for us. He wants all to believe on His word. His message is an invitation to all to come unto Christ so that His mercy can be extended to all. I just love that He is so powerful and merciful all at once. He truly loves us. I wish I could better express my thought better.

 

Have a wonderful week! Happy Easter! Hide some eggs for me to find in a couple years!

 

Love,

Sister Sahagun
