Geliefde Familie:
The Hague Beach |
Just
kidding, we work really hard, but when we walk out of the apartment, I can
smell the ocean. This ward is HUGE. President told me it was like an Orem ward.
I didn't get to see the whole ward yet because it was general conference, and
there weren't that many members that actually came to the church to watch, but
we have 11 missionaries, so that's saying something. Not just 11 missionaries.
11 AWESOME PEOPLE. I love it. The area is HUGE and I don't really know it yet
(I would probably be able to get to the station...I can get to the church and the
centrum and one of our investigators all from our apartment), but I will get
there. Zr GW always has the map...she's only been here 6 weeks and she had two
companions that knew where everything was, and now it’s just her, me, and Zr A
and we don't know ANYTHING. Haha...adventure.
Zr A is so cool. It
took me about 30 seconds to love her. She's hilarious and so much fun. She's
from PG and is studying graphic design at SUU. She is a transfer older than me
and seven days younger than me in real life. She's a huge blessing. Zr GW is so
funny. I'm excited to see what I'll learn from her this transfer. A lot, I am
sure.
Oh, I forgot to tell
you about zone training last week. I think it went well. A lot of people told
me they liked it. We worked really hard on it, so I hope it was what they
needed. Zr WB came up to me crying afterward and told me that she knew I was
inspired. That was pretty cool, especially from her. The lunch was kinda
interesting, but I was grateful nonetheless.
So did I tell you how
my WML gave me a bike? It has hand breaks and it's a mountain bike, but I'm
getting used to it. Of course, you have to fall a few times before you can
learn. So...let's just say I know that angels watch out for us haha. It wasn't
anything serious, but I was going really fast and all of a sudden, Zr GW
stopped, so I slammed the breaks too, but I only had one hand on the handlebars
for a sec, so I flew right into them and ZR A said I totally twisted my ankle,
but it's completely fine. It didn't even hurt. She thought I broke it.
My hair is really
curly here because it's so humid. We actually went really close to the beach
with some members the other day. They came to visit us from Maastricht and took
us to lunch there. That was fun.
Well, general
conference was awesome. They talked a lot about courage, or at least, I heard a
lot about courage. And covenants. These things are important people.
IK HOU VAN JULLIE!
