Csalad! Family! Szeretlek! I love
you! I miss you all so much! I loved Brooke's Valentines! I laughed so hard and
my companion would have as well if she wasn't pounding out her letter on the
computer as fast as I am.
You are all so wonderful. So
much has happened this week! The Usi- ( pronounced USHI) or the ancient ones
have left. They are now happily in Budapest and I am so Jealous. The MTC is
great but I can't wait to serve. We have only on sister coming in this next
week. We are going to call her the kossovatos egy or " The chosen
one". We definitely won't tell her until she figures it our herself she is
our little kiche.
We had a culture day the other day,
which is significant because our teachers NEVER tell stories about their
mission. They want to keep us focused, but the point of this was to encourage
us. So we grooved out to Magyaroszag music and then played with a bull
whip...yeah, it was great. We also learned about the people. They are
apparently a very serious people, they have almost always someone(
occupationing? ) their land. yeah I don't have time to figure out the real
word.
So in the residence halls we have
these sweet secret stashes in the electrical outlets where we preserve all of
our goods. They are great! We have about 3 tons of chocolate kisses saved up
for after the mish, because of course kisses are not an acceptable food for the
MTC. They have these wonderful things here, they're called " Sharing
tables" and you share food. SO if you ever need to serve someone you grab
something from the share table package it, and then give it to the mail
room. I have done this SOO many times, it's great. People love you,
and you don't spend a dime....just a pinch of love and brilliance. I
might send you all one.
The cafeteria is still great. The
other day in the leftover line they had these HUGE chunks of pure meat. EWWWH.
It was sweet though. The Samoans eat 10 of them. STILL SO DRY. I have developed
an electric current that no amount of anti-static can tame. I wake up and
little lightning lights up the room from my blankets. Never living here. But I
do love the mountains :) We had our first SYL day yesterday, which is where we
speak only in our language. So frustrating. We were completely exhausted by the
end of the night, and I promise you everyone of us woke up screaming in
Hungarian. Hungarian phrase for the day " belso beke" ( inner peace)
it's my go-to phrase after we teach our investigators. THANKS SO MUCH for
getting me the book, I haven't gotten it yet but I am so excited. I relate
EVERYTHING to the farm...ahhhh. The farm. So relaxing. The MTC is so hard!
FRIDAY IS MY HALF WAY POINT THOUGH!!!! Also:
I can't believe it. Alright,
this week my testimony of the restoration of the gospel has grown so
significantly. It is so beautiful to me that the Lord provides for us the
simplicity of the gospel through the Book of Mormon. I LOVE the Book of Mormon.
I know it is true. I am so grateful for Joseph Smith for restoring this gospel.
I promise that if any of you have doubts just read it and pray. You will know
it is true. I am so grateful for the plan of Salvation. How great is Jesus
Christ? So great. I am so undeserving of anything he has to offer. I can never
repay him. That is a hard concept to grasp for me. I don't like being in debt
to people, but I love the Savior. I am trying to serve him with all my heart.
He comes first in all I do. I want to share his message so badly to show I love
him. I am praying for the faith I need to bring others to Christ. For those
going on missions soon remember this: You can only bring a person as close to
the Savior as you are. Your relationship with the Savior is what affects
theirs. Got to go! Love you all. Don't forget.
