Hello!
My first trainer Sister Badde has now left and I
got join her in the exit dinner with President which apparently never happens
so that was fun! Except that we had an appointment straight after, so I had two
dinners that night and you can't even believe how full I was!
I'm now being trained by Sister Ramu, but it
doesn't really feel like I’m being trained because I’m the one in charge and
leading the area now with Sister Badde gone and with Sister Ramu never serving
in my area before so that's fun.
We were crossing the road and we made it halfway
across and we were just waiting for a car to pass so we could cross and then we
look to the right and there's this car on the wrong side of the road heading
straight for us and we were like ahh because it wasn't safe to cross yet and it
wasn't very safe to stand still either haha but it all worked out fine and we
made it across safely.
We found a new person to teach and her name is
Jhanavi and she is so sweet! She has this adorable little puppy named Bella and
it's only six weeks old so it's this tiny little thing and I love it so much!
She has her own family religion and some heavy traditions like only being
allowed to cut your hair once a year and then you put that hair on their
goddess as extensions and when they're a baby they go to their temple and get a
tattoo of their family symbol carved into them with a knife and then it's
injected with ink they grow and make themselves. She seems excited to learn
about our religion though and calls us her friends and when we gave her a Book
of Mormon she was so eager to read it and was like I’m gonna finish it in two
days!
Sister Jhanavi can read a person through their
handwriting and I was writing in the Book of Mormon I gave her and then she was
like wow you have beautiful handwriting and then she said I was very
independent because my handwriting was straight and not crooked and that I have
a clear purpose and plan of where I’m going but that I get scared when I have a
lot of responsibility placed on me. She also said that I was stressed and had
tensions about something because I was writing very heavily, and my words were
clearly pressed into the paper so that you could read it on the other side. Not
all true but it was cool how the way you write can mean different things.
We had district finding in SN Markets this week and
usually when people try and sell you things they never leave you alone but if
you give them a free English class flier they stop following you straight away
haha so there's a handy hint to remember for next time.
I don't think I look that completely different and
stand out heaps but apparently, I do because this lady came up to me and asked
for a selfie with me haha never had that happen before
The power cut out in church a few times and when it
cuts out it's pitch black and it's like no one even notices because they just
carry on with their talk or whatever as if nothing’s happened. The funny part
was when it happened for the first time while we were singing choose the right
and then we got to the last line of the chorus which sings choose the right and
God will bless you ever more then the lights turned back on haha we all chose
the right by coming to church that day so God blessed us and turned the power
back on.
Love Sister Watts
