G'day!
And so it begins! We picked up our golden, Sister Salyer, on Wednesday!
She's from California and is so fresh American. (We say "fresh" about
people who are straight from the islands, Samoa, Tonga, etc. It applies
pretty well to other countries as well haha) She visa waited in Arizona
for 12 weeks, so she's not super golden anymore, but she's bringing us
miracles nonetheless. It's strange to hear the American accent again! I
guess I'm just used to Sister Hatch's accent so it's not weird, but
other Americans' accents sound so strange to me. It'll be weird to come
home where everyone sounds like that!
This weekend has just been marvellous! We went to the temple with Mohsen and Rudy and Jorge on Saturday
morning. Mohsen loved it! It was so cool to see them all there being
all righteous and shiny and stuff. We went to breakfast afterwards with
them and our ward mission leader, Jet. It was hilarious and probably the
most fun I've had in a while. They're awesome.
On Sunday
Jorge gave his first talk and passed the sacrament for the first time!
He did a great job with both. And he invited us all over for dinner at
his house that evening! He made this awesome Peruvian food, as always.
After dinner we had our boys teach us the plan of salvation, which was
really cool. Mohsen talked about how Jesus Christ is the reason we can
live with God again, and how He overcomes the barriers to make the plan
of salvation progress. It was so cool to hear from someone with a Muslim
background.
Love you all!
