Hola!
SUPRISE! I get to email today because tomorrow we get to go on a field trip! We are going to a Guatemalan Market and we get to see some of the city. I think it is in my mission, so I will let you know how it goes. We are all really excited we get to go see a real market!
Okay, so this week was good! The President of the CCM left sometime last week because he had a medical problem and him and his wife will be gone till sometime next week. We miss them a lot and things just aren't the same without them! We are praying for them! Since they have been gone, everyone has gone loco and they made all these new rules. We just love it all.
This week Hermana N and I had really great time teaching this week. The Spanish get's harder but we just push through it and do our best to form any sort of sentence we can. It is amazing how you can still communicate with people by just loving them! This week our hearts were just so full and we just cannot wait to teach again and get better. Hermana N and I are really improving and learning how to teach in unity. It is the best.
This week after all of the people in our district have taught, our teacher came into the class and talked to us about teaching and how each of us as companionships have different gifts that we bring while we teach. It was really a nice reminder that no matter what we do, as long as we work hard and love the people we teach, our investigators will learn through the Spirit and through our personal talents.
Some other little things:
So the first day we got here, there was this lady named Norma (I don't remember if I told you about her) and she is my BEST friend. She speaks no English but from day one we were instantly friends. I can finally communicate with her and she makes my day! Today, she gave me and Hermana N little Guatemalan pens and bookmarks that were hand woven and they were so beautiful. I almost cried because she is so kind. It will be really hard to say goodbye to her. She is the best.
We teach our teachers American sayings and then have them practice them. It is soo funny to hear them say American things in an accent.
We got to watch a new Mormon Message and the movie the Testaments. It was so nice. I suggest watching the new Mormon Message "The hope of God's Light."
Anyways, I love you and I am praying for you daily. I hope you know that! You are wonderful people!!!! Thank you for everything.
Love,
Hermana Cornelison
