przepraszam, myślałem że, mogłem
pokozać mój Polski
I will use English now haha! I said I
thought I'd show you my Polish.
So
this week has been another good one. Nothing new really. I'm still loving it
here, and I take each day as it comes. We had the Young Womens General President come and
speak to us for our Tuesday night devotional, it was a nice change having a
woman come and speak to us as opposed to a general authority. She taught us a
message of how we need to be loving enough to let heavenly father cut us down,
you know the 'currant bush' story by D. Todd. Christofferson.
The Polish is coming on good. For TRC this week, we had it on Wednesday,
we taught a native over skype. It was so nerve-racking, and she spoke so
quickly so I could barely understand, but it was really enjoyable. Also we had
some practice at teaching a less active member, the investigator played by Brat
Kimball, our new teacher. The person we skyped was a mid 20's recently
baptized member. She lived in the north, I can't remember the place, but she
knows Brat Fotu, one of my teachers, which was good. Skype was okay, the
sound was bad so I couldn't really hear, and that doesn't help the fact she's
speaking a language that I can just about understand when my teacher is
talking. Other than that, it was fun.
Am I ready to go to Poland? I don’t really know. I would say I can't wait
to get there, but teaching the Polish lady over skype yesterday hit me as to
how much I will learn when I'm out there. The MTC is just a small piece of what
I'll learn and experience. There's a policy at the MTC of SYL (speak your language), and it helps a
lot. We read scriptures in Polish as a class each day, but it's hard to follow
because of all the cases used and things.
Can't wait for next week, hopefully I'll have more info about flights
and if I can call or not. Also I get to go to Salt Lake next week, not to
the temple, just to walk around temple square and things, so should be good. I'm excited for Christmas, it should be really
good, we have p day Christmas eve and then Christmas day is a very chill day
too! Something else
exciting, we should get our flight tomorrow I think! Oh and
also, the branch Presidency said we probably can call home on Christmas, so
I'll let you know more about that when I know!
My
best bit of the week, probably taking a 40 min shower today haha. The week is all good, lots of good
lessons, lots of good opportunities nauczać , uczyliśmy kapłaństwa lekcji again, to jest fun nauczenie the
priesthood lesson.
The sisters are all still great! To jest dobrze
być z nimi. Lubię im służyć i są bardzo śmieszne!
It is good to be with them. I like serving them, and they are all very
funny! The new zone leaders are 2 Czech elders, Chadwick
and Pickett.
