I can’t
believe I’ve only been here a few days.
It seems like I’ve been here weeks.
I love working with Sister Hansen. We get along so well and she is so
sweet. I love all the girls in my room
too. So that’s a huge blessing!
One of my
favorite things about Sister Hansen is that we can just laugh together.
Sometimes that’s all we can do, especially in German class.
The German
is slow but it is coming. I love our
teachers and they are so great and patient. I’m getting really good at picking
out when they tell us we can have a break J Oh and I’ve
mastered how to say Ich habe ein frage (I have a question) and Ich Weiss nicht
(I don’t know).
Sister
Hansen and I had an adventure when I left my ID card on my breakfast tray. We had to go back to the dishwashers and
search for it. So I am extra thankful
for the cute lanyard!!
We taught
our first "investigator" this week… in German!
The first appointment was a train wreck.
No joke. It was just the German. We totally approached it wrong. The focus was on us and our message in German
and not on our investigator and his needs.
It was so bad! However the next night we taught him again and it went so
much better. He prayed out loud with
us. The Spirit was definitely
there. Both Sister Hansen and I were
crying. It was so good.
I love all
the people I am working with. It can all
be kind of overwhelming so we just take it one class at a time and focus on all
the German we know. 3 days ago I
couldn’t have prayed or born my testimony in German. We’re even conjugating verbs!! Every day I
just versuche meine besten!
Thanks for
the packages!
Love you
tons!
Sister Brown
P.S. If you
can’t tell it is SO hard to get used to being called and introducing myself as
Sister Brown.
P.P.S. My
departure date is now March 19.
P.P.P.S. The
food isn’t bad at all. I can find
something every meal including fresh veggies and fruits.
P.P.P.P.S.
There are indeed 40 sisters headed to Berlin with us and a bunch of
Elders. Bas ist sehr gut!!
