Week 26: Six months already!!

- April 04, 2018

8. The 91 year old lady Hello family and friends! Six months ago tomorrow I entered the MTC and the only things I could say in Thai were hello and a few letters of the alphabet. Now, I can speak, read, and write a little bit in Thai! How fun is that! But more than that, I have learned so much about the gospel and I have had the privilege of helping others come unto Christ for these last 6 months. This is what happened this week... 1. Sister Janjarus left :( we went to the airport with her and got to meet her family who were also there to drop her off. We were sad to see her go but I know she will do great things in Temple Square in Salt Lake City. It is weird because now that she left I sleep on a bed again instead of the couch and it feels so foreign. 2. English class: we were teaching directions and we made a maze out of chairs and we paired them off and had them direct each other through the maze. It was so fun and hilarious to watch! 3. สมบโรน์: This...

Week 30: Week in review

- April 24, 2018

1. Get out of the church!! Hello hello hello! Wow so much happens every single day here and I don't even know where to start so I guess I'll just make a list of a few miracles and cool things this week. 1. The prophet came to Thailand!! Wow this was such a cool opportunity! President Russell M Nelson and Elder Jeffery R Holland and their wives came and spoke to the largest gathering of saints in Thailand ever (and I got to be a part of this historical event - cool). It was such a special experience to be there and hear what they said. They talked a lot about the temple coming to Thailand and about the Savior! It was cool because all of the missionaries from Thailand came and I got to see all of my old companions and other friends, as well as members from Chiang Mai because people came from the entire country!! And some investigators came which was a cool experience for them. 2. We had some people who wanted to get baptized a few months ago who dropped off th...

Week 29ish: สงกรานต์ (songkran)

- April 13, 2018

3. สงกรานต์ Hey so it is pday again, the third one in the last week and a half. The pday schedule for this month is a little crazy - we have pday today because it is Thai new year which we celebrate with a giant water festival!! I currently have two water guns and a bunch of water balloons and my phone is in a plastic bag and a special protective case as I type this. Currently on the BTS, completely soaked and dripping wet, coming back from a day full of people throwing water at each other!! Can't express how fun สงกรานต์ is. Picture this: Bangkok. A really busy city and people everywhere. But now imagine everyone has water guns and buckets full of water and everyone is soaking each other. HUNDREDS of people. And everyone is wearing these super flashy Hawaiian shirts. Thailand is the BEST!! so today was pretty packed which is why I haven't answered a single email or really talked with anyone. It's okay though because next time I email on the 23rd I will get to tell...
