HALLO!!
The MTC is great. I love it. I especially love my district and my zone. They are hilarious and they teach me so much. I feel so lucky to have been placed with them. What is so cool is that as soon as I met them it felt like I already knew them. It was so weird, I just already felt such a deep connection with them and already had so much love for them on day one. I don't think that is a coincidence, that just lets me know even more that I am suppose to be here.
MOM!!! One of the mom's you emailed in that little mission email group about the Apostilles son is in my district! He is hilarious and his name is Elder Halverson. It is just so funny because you and his mom emailed. hahah also, remember when you told me that there was a girl with the last name of Bauer going to my mission on the same day?? and I facebook stalked her?? She is my companion:) hahaha She is awesome and I feel so lucky that I got her as my comp. She is a hard worker and we have fun together.
I am learning a lot. My German is coming along great. I used to be the worst in my German class at BYU, and now that is not the case at all. Everyone looks up to me and all the Elders/Sisters who have been here 6 weeks longer than me, think I am really good at it. The older sisters told me that the Elder's were wondering if I was going to be fast tracked. That made me happy. I got called up on Sunday to bare my testimony in German to the whole zone. That was awesome. I love speaking the German language so much. I have really already felt the gift of tongues so much. My german has improved a lot and I already understand so much. The Lord is so good.
We are teaching an investigator named Alex. We teach him in German. The miracle about it is that I don't even have to look at my notes on what I want to say to him, I just can say it! It is amazing. The gift of tongues is real! I love teaching so much. Even though I know he is not a real investigator he seems real. We pray for him all the time and just hope and pray he accepts our commitments. I love teaching this gospel, it is amazing!!
On Sunday Sister Elaine S. Dalton came and spoke to the Relief Society. It was AMAZING and just what I needed. She said something that I thought was absolutely hilarious. She was talking about how soon their will be over 2,000 sisters in the field. Then she said "Did the Strippling Warriors have girlfriends?? Ya... they were you!!" I thought that was hilarious but also so cool at the same time. I feel so grateful and humbled that the Lord wanted me to be his servant for these next 18 months. I know I will be blessed so much and because of it I will be able to marry someone that is just like a Strippling Warrior.. (sorry that is cheezy) hahah
O meine Gute!! I remember something I wanted to say. SO I wore my ugly shoes yesterday and all the elders kept telling me that they looked like grandma shoes. hahahah It was so funny, see? I told you they were ugly. But that is okay, I will wear them proud:)
I love you guys so much and miss ya'll a ton. I pray for ya'll daily. Let me know if there is any news of the house selling. Tell Mckay to write me! I want to talk to him about missions and how great they are.
Also those pictures in the other emails were one of my companion and I matching:) we have the same outfit, the other pictures are of the elders in my district. They are awesome.
ICH LIEBE DICH!!!
SISTER ALLMAN
