January 22, 2017

Hello!

This last week was pretty eventful. A few weeks ago we were given a new program to use to teach English class that was made for people that had just started learning English. Last week we had four people show up and all of them are pretty much fluent. So we quickly went over what we were suppose to learn and then we just talked a little and gave them all a chance to practice. There was one girl that is from Brazil and she was telling us about her home and how her city is known for the biggest street party in the world. As she was describing the party I looked over to the other side of the room at a 22 year old male student who was staring at her with wide eyes and his mouth open, literally drooling. My companion and I both laughed pretty hard at that.

One day this week we were doing our companion study when our intercom system started to ring, someone was at the door and wanted to talk to us. When we got down we found a pair of Jehovah witness missionaries waiting for us. It was pretty funny to see there reaction when they realized they had contacted the two white missionaries from america. It was  a little odd to be on the other side of a contact like that for once.

On Thursday we were told that we had to go pick up my new companion. so there were three of us together for a few days and then Elder Mccusker left to his new area just a few hours ago.  My new companion is Elder Cai. He is fro Taiwan and he just came straight from the MTC in the Philippians. He is pretty cool and I hope the two of us are able to work hard together.

On Friday The mission president, his wife and three sets of senior couple missionaries came down to our area. This has never happened before so we thought that maybe we would be getting sister missionaries this transfer. It turns out that they all just came down to take a little vacation. So nothing big changed like we were expecting but it was fun to see them all. I think the branch was also a little excited to see them all at church. One set of the couple missionaries got here a few hours before the rest of them and got in a little car accident. nobody was hurt, the cars were just a little scratched up. So we had to run over and help them translate with everyone involved and then we got to go spend the rest of the evening at the police station filling out different accident reports.




I got the package with the quilt a few weeks ago. I'm rally sorry, I thought I already told you. We tried to drop it off on their doorstep without them noticing but the neighbors dog made a lot of noise and tried to attack me when we got close. so it wasn't exactly supper sneaky but they seemed to really appreciate it. Thank you :)
Thank you for emailing me again and I hope you all have a great week!
