Week 16: September 15, 2016 Night Pday

Erin's letter came in at 9:00 PM

Hey fam!

SO this week has been pretty crazy because a companionship had to be
ET'd (Emergency Transferred) because they were not getting along and one of them was new and stressin about learning all the history and 
everything. SO that caused for a few more changes in the schedule and made it so today I had NIGHT pday (not every pday will be like this). It was pretty crazy. I had a shift this morning at VC and then my pday started
at 3 and went until 9 tonight. It's cool but that means we have less time to get everything done and so I literally only have 30 minutes to email today.

It sounds like everyone is doing well! Thanks for sending so many pictures to me! I loved seeing them! Those pictures of the babies are so cute!! I showed them to a lot of the other VC sisters and they were dying. So good job on having cute babies. Jorden did great in his triathlon! That is awesome that he got 3rd! We will have to do a race together when I get home. He can help me get back in shape. And Lisa is having a GIRL!! WOO! That is so exciting!

I did get the package and it was great! Thank you SOO MUCH! I loved getting it and everything in it was exactly what I have been needing. 
Also, the iPad key board and case you sent is awesome! I have been able to type so much more quickly and it's the best!

This week has been pretty fun because we are teaching a bunch of people from the Congo and they only speak Swahili, French, a lot of other weird languages and a LITTLE English. It has been really fun to teach them and literally be as simple as possible. We were finally able to get a member who speaks French to come and it was so much easier. They are all on date for October 8th so that is awesome! We might try and move the date up a little bit even because they are
progressing really well and love it. It ultimately depends on the language barrier. BUT we have started teaching an English class for people who want to learn English and that has been great!
I am sending a video to you of some of the sisters singing in front of the Christus with a senior elder who has some disabilities. (We didn't get the video not sure why). He comes in every once in a while and we will sing with him and he LOVES it. It is so sweet!! I love it!

On Sunday, we were really slow so we went downstairs to the history and did role plays and took pictures down there. It was really fun! I have been doing great! I love and miss you all so much!
(We didn't get these photos either. We need to ask about them.)

Love you,
Hermana Greenwood
