Yes, we did teach the lady and her husband this week.
They also came to church this past Sunday, which was awesome, because we
weren't really sure whether they were going to come or not. so that was a nice
surprise. We haven't found anyone else yet, and no, we don't have any member
referrals. no, we don't know if we are getting anyone else yet. We won't find
that out until Sunday when the President does transfer calls. Everyone,
including Sister Raun has pegged me for training next transfer, and President
has asked me about it, but I don't really think so. That would really be quite
the surprise. Plus from what I've heard, we have ten less sisters than they
were originally planning on, once upon a time, but who knows. Rumors are
rumors. Speaking of rumors, this week I learned that this is the highest
marrying mission in the world. So yeah. That's that. Oh, and in dutch it would
still be missionaries for both elders and sisters, so it was bless the
missionaries, and the sisters too. :) Sister Raun's name rhymes with Fawn.
haha.It's like Ron.
Our apartment-It is not a studio. It's a two bedroom. So one
bedroom is really small and we have a wardrobe thingy and a drying thing to
hang our clothes up to dry on. I really miss a dryer. My shirts are getting too
big and stretched out and stuff. It's uncomfortable. Anyway, then you have our
bedroom, which has our two beds, and our two wardrobes. Then we have a laundry
room, with just the washer. then the bathroom. In our apartment, the shower and
toilet room are together, but that hasn't been the case in any other missionary
apartment i've been to, or any house I've visited. Anyway, then there's a door
that we can close to close that part off. For some reason the Dutch really love
their doors. Every room has a door so you can shut the house off. I don't know,
I think it's a little weird. Anyway, then there's the big open room with our
tables, we have three, plus a kitchen table. We also have a fairly nice sized
balcony. Not a small one. And our kitchen and stuff like that. It's a really
nice apartment. We even have a dishwasher, which hardly any one has. Yes, I
still get mail, and I have heard from a few people from the MTC. I hope
dad's leg starts feeling better soon. :) And it sounds like that pocket session
thingy was cool.
This week, we had exchanges with the Sister Training Leader
person. So I got to go to Zoetemer or however you spell it, to work with her
companion since I stayed here last time. Anyway, it's close to Den Haag, and
this is the city where the temple is. We rode our bikes right past it, it's
super tiny. The bike the sister training leader has is terrible, and I
had to work super hard to go anywhere. My bike spoils me apparently. It's good
to have a good bike. :) Especially because her bike is ghetto, and I never want
to do that again.
There's a family history center in the church in Amsterdam.
There might be one in Den Haag but I have no idea about that kind of
thing. Our district has 6 elders, and then us two sisters. Our zone, is
huge. It encompasses quite a large area, but I dont know how to describe it. i
have seen a lot of Amsterdam. Mainly on district meeting day, and only if we
take a tram and train instead of taking a long bus ride, but it's a beautiful
city. We don't do much for pday. theres pretty much never time to do anything,
not even write letters. So yeah. Anyway that's pretty much it for this week.
Love you.
Karoline
