well yeah i spoke yesterday at church. it went well. everyone understood my spanish so that was good....they laughed at my jokes. haha. i´m sure syd did great too!!
so last week we had transfers. guess what? hermana jenkins left. it was a REALLY sad goodbye. haha we were NOT expecting it. i really love her so much. she went to Valdivia! so that´s cool! guess what else? im training a new missionary! she´s from pleasant grove UT. hermana meacham. she´s the sweetest thing on the face of the earth. so so cute. doesn´t know a lick of spanish. (it´s pretty bad) it´s crazy to see how much spanish i actually know. when i got here to Chile i struggled a lot with the language. i felt like i´d never learn. i was exactly like hermana meacham. i´m really excited to help her learn and grow! we´ve already set lots of goals! she told me i speak really fast...it´s SO weird speaking slow hahaha. and the other day we were in a family night and the mom of the family was like "she doesn´t understand a thing...just tell her what i said in english" so i looked at hermana meacham and started talking to her but it all came out in spanish. and she was still confused. and then the mom was like "no just tell her in english!" and then i realized i was still speaking spanish. im not sure if i´ll ever be able to speak english again! i´m definitely learning to have patience with it all. i don´t know how hermana bennett did it with me. shout out to her!
so we´ve only been together for about 1 week but we are already seeing lots of miracles. the street contacts we´ve been doing actually stop and listen...and we´ve been teaching lots and lots of people in the streets. hermana meacham invited 3 people to be baptized in the street this week. it was awesome. she´s got a really strong testimony...the spirit is very very strong when she testifies. i feel very blessed to have the opportunity to train her. i´m glad the president obeso trusts me to do it...but more importantly that the Lord trusts me to do it. it´s gonna be awesome.
anways, i´m out of time but i love you all so much! thanks for you prayers! you guys are the best!
love, hermana steele
