3 days!! (first email)

Ciao la mia familia!! Well first off all I survived almost a week...haha like 3 days+4 more......I will only have 5 weeks left and I have already learned SO MUCH!! wow my brain is fried, and I am already teaching an investigator IN ITALIAN which ya...you can only imagine! I just sit there and act like I know what she is saying, then she asks questions, and I smile but secretly want to cry cause i have NO IDEA WHAT THE HEY IS GOING ON! haha but the spirit is always so strong, and the mtc is full of people of all ages going through the same thing I am, and through it all, I know I am not alone because the spirit is my constant companion as long as I am obedient and worthy of it. Anyways I have learned more Italian in the past 3 days than my 2 years of spanish...seriously they SHOVE so much info on us, but it's the best way to learn, and requires A LOT of faith and prayer. I can say a small prayer in Italian, but it's little by little everyday and small baby steps. :) I love being a missionary and I love the mtc! My comps are sorella weeks and sorella Hoareau and sorella hoareau is from france and teaches us french and we teach her english!! I love my comps and know we were put in a trio for a reason, especially since sorella Hareau knows some Italian too, so that really helps. :) Anyways My real pday is next thursday, but We got to email today to let our families know that we will write again next week! I love you guys, send me letters, dear elder or whatever...I love them and hearing from my familia. <3

Love sorella rindlisbacher!
