The one where Sister Wankier LEARNS SPANISH!!😱

 HIIII 


What's up?? How is everyone!! 

This week has been awesome kinda a blur but it went by faster than usual so πŸ€  can't complain!!

This week we had some more ministering calls with our district to keep building unity haha and they were hilarious!! I cant remember if i explained them last week haha whoops here it is again. We usually call one companionship and see how they are soing get to know them more and check up on if they need any help!! Sister Radford and I can't tell if our elders are funny or we were so tired after the days that we were getting loopy haha but they were an awesome way to end the night!! The most famous question asked was.. 
"If our nice dishes in America are called fine China what do those in China call their nice dishes?" 
Lmk we still haven't found an answer yet haha 

This week we has quite a few lessons lined up and I learned a ton in all of them. One of our lessons was a drop lesson.. haha kind a soft drop haha we love Sally she's been truly awesome and loves asking questions but has been taught 90% of the material and doesn't want to go to church or read the book of Mormon on her own or leave her house :(( we don't blame her she's had 3 strokes in one day😱😱 her body is healing!! She lives all alone with no kids and no family so we were some sunshine in her life and sadly we think that's all :(( we planted a seed πŸŒ±haha but this week I learned how we tell someone we can't keep coming back. It was really hard to not just cry when we were leaving. BUT good news to the sad story she doesn't know if she can make it to church but she does know she can try and be at some of the relief society events If we have any and she NEVER said that before so she has some kind of desire and we are just waiting for the day it all clicks for her :)) 

So this week I learned how to softly drop someone and than also how to INVITE SOMEONE TO BE BAPTIZED :))))) King Is awesome we were able to meet his secret gf of a month.. yesturday haha so it's a good thing we set the date a month and a half away haha AND she was super interested in the church too so we are expecting them this Thursday for a lesson and next Sunday for church :)) but we know king is so ready because Satan literally kept making it so we couldn't meet with him to ask him ALL week long!!! But jokes on Satan we finally got to talk to him and finish the gospel of jesus christ and Ask Him To Be Baptized!!! He said he will pray about it and let us know and so we are meeting with our ward this week to give them the rundown!!!! And get their help in a ton of fellowship to both!! 

This week we also had some more culturally tradition meals from some of the members in our ward. We had traditional salads from China (a raw onion with peanut butter sause) Dinner from Nygeria (rice and goat meatballs) And dinner from El Sabador (potatoes and onions, Greek salad, and chicken still on the bone that looked like it was a chicken nugget) 
To sum it all up haha my stomach has been in knots ALL WEEK but I was fed haha so I am eternally grateful I got to try something new!!! 

The title for this week comes from a stake wide choir of missionaries singing in stake conference!!! We have a predominantly Spanish stake so we have an English session of stake conference and a Spanish session of stake conference. They pulled together our whole stake and asked us as full time missionaries, ward missionaries, ward mission leaders, service missionaries, pretty much you have a time of missionary anywhere you are gonna be there!!! And we are singing 3 songs.. 2 of them in Spanish HAHA. 

You maybe be thinking, "Wait but Mads didn't you not want to learn any language.." Yes!! that would be correct I wanted English VERY badly haha but now I am called from my mission president to learn asl and now from my ward to learn spanish. I am GOING to come home trilingual JUST YOU WAIT!! at this point no holding back now. Haha me and sister radford have been spending 30 minutes a day practicing ASL and 30 minutes a day practicing Spanish. I now can knock on a door and say "Hello, we are missionaries for the church of jesus christ of latter day saints, we share messages about Jesus chrsit can we share a quick one with you?" In Spanish and the restoration lesson in ASL!!!πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸ₯³πŸ₯³ kinda lit!! 

Anyways haha that was kinda long again haha but it's been SUCH a good week!! I am healthy and happy and love this work with everything in me!! ♡♡♡♡♡

Anyways MUCH LOVE!! AND MANY THANKS!!
