Mema and Papa are there what!!! so fun!! I wanna come! ok! I will try and describe a normal day but this week has been a little crazy because I had to do OFFI which is like these doctor appointments for our visa> But anyway! a typical day! I wake up! do some stretches haha get ready... STUDY!!! I love studies!! but you know that! I'll explain friday! so we have a lot of studies to do because we are still training! so we study personally as a companion, lanuguage!! all the above! then we ate lunch, hopped on our bikes and headed to Goyave!! We ride down this hill into Goyave. Then we just teach people pretty much ever hour of the day! haha it is so fun! Friday night we had a Bokite appoinment, but the guy didnt come! But then a miracle! This other guy that we lost contact with was there and had a lesson over bokites! I love sharing the restored gospel with others!! Theres 22 missionaries on my island but 2 are the senior couple> two zones. I'm in a zone with all elders, its a weird adjustment but I deal! Theres 12 missionaries on Martinique, the other french island, and 6 on Guinia, the french part of South America, fun times!! We mostly eat like idk whatever we can make real fast, haha, grilled cheese, paninins, cereal, pasta, chicken! I make mesquite chicken sometimes!! Sometimes we get Bokites! just whatever!
Ok can I tell you about my week!!???? We got back a hold of Christine!! Shes doing better but still fighting off that chickengoonya. wasnt able to come to district conference this week but thats ok! shes getting better! Her testimony is still so so strong!!!!! then LYDIA!!! oh my goodness! Heavenly Father loves me too much by giving me Lydia, I love lydia! our lessons are so fun! she is just so cute and she LOVES US! At district conference this week, which she drove us to.. she leaned over and said 'I can tell i have the best missionaries' hahah shhh! dont tell the other missionaires! She loves us! Anyways saturday she invited us over to give us some clothes that were too big for her because shes tiny so i took this super cute wrap dress, but then.. miracle!! we thought of our ami Lily who hasnt come to church because she has nothing to wear, but then we went and gave it to her, and LILY CAME TO CONFERENCE WITH US TOO!! literally it was too perfecrt! Lydia drove us and Lily to conference! And Lily looked so cute and perfect like a mormon girl! Lily is this haitian that we kidna stopped teaching for a week because she wouldnt come to church and we didnt know why! but we felt prompted to come by this week and she came to conferecene! all the way in abymes! (thats far) anyways i was thrilled>> THRILLED!! I LOVE HAVING AMIS!! I love sitting with amis :) I was so happy, when they left I just didnt know what to do with myself... hahaha
Then it was district conference (like stake conference but were a district) and President Mehr spoke and it was just amazing. He told us to search for our spiritual gifts that Heavenly Father will give us to make us more Godly. We must earnestly search these gifts and we must ask Him what gifts we need! I know thats true! because I asked Him and I know what He wants me to be! Its so awesome and I'm just so grateful I got to hear that!
And this week is zone conference so we'll hear more from him! I'm so excited to get spiritually fed some more and improve my work! I love missionary work! I love this gospel! I am so blessed!
Love you all,
Soeur Tenney
