First letter from the MTC 3/2/13

Kenedi's first companion, Sister McNeill

The first missionary she sees when she walks into the cafeteria, her college roommate Sister Morgan Allred!  They were so excited to see each other.

Okay so I don't have much time but I will try to do my best to tell you my week events. First off, I love the MTC the days are CRAZY here!! I love my companion her name is Sister McNeill, she is super funny and easy to get along with!!  Yesterday I taught my first lesson with Sister McNeill in SPANISH! It went really, really bad (haha I know no Spanish  and if you can believe it my companion knows less then me. We planned a really good lesson, but when our investigator had questions I had no idea what he was saying so I would just say " Silencio Claudio, Escuchar el Espiritu" haha it didnt work out so well. The days here are really fun and busy. I feel overwhelmed at this time because I don't know any Spanish or how to teach a good lesson in English!! It is super frustrating when you have a desire to teach a good lesson, but you do not yet have the skills to teach one in Spanish. They really throw you into the fire here. BUT I know with time that the Spanish will come and I will be able to teach a good lesson. My companion and I are teaching our second lesson today and we have no idea what we are going to teach. I feel like I don't even have time to sleep here, I considered staying up all last night to study Spanish, but I am so tired (LIKE ALL THE TIME) that I knew if I stayed up I would only hurt myself and wreck the time the I have during the day to study. I am so grateful for the spirit that is here and the opportunity I have to serve a mission even tho it is REALLY REALLY MUCHO hard. I have learned the importance of listening to the spirit and that if I have faith and do my every best it will guide in me what I need to do and say. Please keep my in your prayers because I really need it at this time, it will be a miracle if I ever learn Spanish!! I love and miss you guys!! Oh and Kyle and Allee were the first two to write me letters, I really loved getting them!!!

Love, 

Sister Ayre
