Well this week Sister Wilkins and I received travel plans, Our little trio went down to the
mail to pick up packages that they had received and just down the hall
we hear, "...sisters..." very solemnly are three elders, who do not want
to make eye contact with us, and in their hands are the paper that were
going to determine Sister Wilkins and I's DESTINY! well almost. (: I
run and grab the papers and read IRVINE CALIFORNIA! I WAS BEYOND
EXCITED!!!! and the Elders were so confused, but then I attacked Sister Wilkins with a hug we both would be going to the same place for a
temporary visa assignment! AND ITS PROSELYTING!!!! WOOO!!! I can
honestly say one thing, the only reason I was so excited was because of the
many prayers of patience, praying for our visa and even English fasting
that we would receive something. That something even though not our
visas yet was flight plans to go preach the Gospel, Its not about WHERE.
Its just about PREACHING THE GOOD NEWS! and I get to go do that in California for a bit! (:
So I'm pretty sure in the MTC we've created our own Mongolian language and I'm pretty sure its not MONGOLIAN.

Well shout out to Grandma for sending treats!! #THANKSGRANDMA
So
this week we taught at the BYU English Learning Center and it was super
fun. We were there from 8 am to Noon everyday and now we are certified
English teachers. Our first lesson was on families and our second class
was on Verbs and what are you doing questions. I firmly believe the only
reason they went actually pretty well is because we started the classes
with a prayer. PRAYER IS AMAZING. There has been so many times where
I've lost my name tag or notebook and every time I've prayed I've found
it very soon after. #prayerworks
Also at the ELC we were
observing an English class and Sister Hartley introduces herself and
says shes from IOWA and the students ask her where that's at? So she
draws the U.S. on the board and draws Iowa. One of the students asks her
if its just a two hour drive away and she said "well its more like
18." then it was my turn I get up and introduce myself and say I'm from
Vegas and then I go to draw on the board where that is but IMMEDIATELY
the entire class says, "OHHHH!!!" hahah and then they start partying
with their hands. I think they know what Vegas is :P haha (:

QUOTE OF THE WEEK: "change your thoughts, change your LIFE." -Mama
Wilkins Sometimes we dont have control of the things going on around
you, but we certainly have control over our thoughts. If we are positive
and see the bright side of things, then there really will be a bright
side! (: #BeHappyYall #MamaWilkins
I love the MTC and am sad to say BYE but I've got to go preach the good word. (:
Ready to go |
Till next time,
Sister Bennett (:
NOW GO SAY SOMETHING NICE TO SOMEONE AND MAKE THEIR DAY! (:
