Hey
everyone! I hope all is well outside of this MTC bubble I'm stuck in
haha. I hit three weeks tomorrow and normally that's when we'd be
leaving, but because of Christmas, I get to stay another week! I got my
travel plans though, so I hope this next week flies by!
Being a Sister Training Leader is not that hard when there's three of
you and only two other sister companionship's in the other district. But
we're supposed to be getting two more districts tomorrow so that'll be
fun.
Our TRCs have been going really well! We are getting way better at
teaching and using the spirit. Or at least we thought we were haha.
During our TRC yesterday, we sat down and my comp, Sister Beal, and I
completely blanked what lesson we were supposed to teach. The Sister
Beal forgot the girl's name during the prayer... oops. Sister Stockham
kept looking to us for help, but all we could do was give her a blank
stare back haha. It's okay though, practice makes perfect and its
definitely a good thing we get another week of it haha.
Here's a funny/embarrassing story. On Sunday, during fast and testimony
meeting, I was figiting with a rubber band and somehow accidentally shot
it two rows forward. My comp, Sister Beal, and I could not hold in our
laughs. Everyone kept looking at us. I was sitting next to the Branch
Presidents wife when it happened so that's cool haha. We'll see how much
longer our calling of STL lasts now. Good times.
Here's
another one. I think my comps and I have been deprived of technology
and social media for too long. Yesterday, my comp drew a picture/diagram
of the Plan of Salvation for a lesson. Then she asked another sister,
"Hey, do you like my photo?" We lost it for about 5 minutes it was so
funny. We're also exhausted so its probably not even that funny haha.
Anyways, this week I was reading in Helamen for my personal Book of
Mormon study. I love Helamen 5:12. It talks about how if we build our
foundation on Christ, the devil will have no power over us. I know
that's true. If we center our lives on Christ, He can be our rock and
help us through anything. He is just waiting for us to come to Him in
prayer.
Thanks for putting up with my dumb stories and supporting me anyways! I promise I'm learning too. Love and miss you all!
Sister Emery Collins
