One month down! - going strong








It's gone by very fast! I realized on the 1st that I was almost out a month. It's different though cuz I've only been in the field for 3ish weeks so yeah. It has been quite cold. there was one day where is was all just frost. Everywhere. I think that was last Monday actually. Ah! It was freezing. I could feel the cold seeping in through my clothes...haha but it hasn't been like that very often. It's quite mild today. I judge that because I cant see my breath haha. My coat holds up fine with the rain. It's only mainly sprinkled. No heavy rains yet.

We are teaching a family of 3! Plus a friend! So we met this lady on the bus and we scheduled a time to go to her place and give her the first lesson. Well turns out she has two kids Robert who is 25 and Melisa who is 24. Robert is... interesting but he is progressing as an investigator. We take members with us for a Joint Teach (JT) They had a friend over the other day who we'd never met and he said he had been taking lessons in France whilst on holiday and that he was still interested in taking them! We have high hopes. C: 

Mark and Lilly are a deaf couple that we are teaching. We've been studying sign language in the mornings so that we can better communicate with them. BSL is super fun and we're having a sign language class night for like 30 min so people in the ward can also learn how to communicate with them so that will be fun. They're super nice and are just golden investigators. They saw an lds.org card and called up the sisters. and they came to sacrament meeting yesterday! Woot!

I saw a castle. The ravenscraige castle. It's small and mostly ruins but it was still cool! I didn't have my camera but it's right on the beach... Ahh it's so pretty. C:

I can't believe it snowed! That's crazy. It hasn't even snowed here!... Another year gone. New Years is quite the holiday here. It's probably bigger that Christmas which is sad. We had to be in by 6 New Years Eve (or Old Years Night) and then the day of we were at a members house where we had crackers and paper crowns like they do at Christmas. It was fun. Jan 2nd is also a holiday which is lame and makes no sense so that interfered with proselyting time... but it's finally over and we can get back into the swing of things!

Share the gospel! it's awesome!

Love,
Sister McBride
