I need a translator!

Wow. The first week of training is sort of done and what a week it was. So the title is because that happened a few times this week. We would go to people's houses and they would see 2 Americans and heard me speak Tagalog but only saw the 2 Americans so they told us to come back when we have a translator. Do I look like the Tatay of this elder? I think we look close enough to be related. We are getting the 2001 babies now which blows my mind for some reason. If any of you know the Hawks (aka Adrienne and Darcy) Elder Peterson, my new trainee, is their cousin! That was crazy to find out. Anyway, we are learning a lot together. One thing I have learned this week that I feel impressed to share with you is that God will make you equal to anything He calls you to do. I have felt so inadequate to be a District leader and a trainer at the same time but as I have been going about my duties, I have been able to see the strength of the Lord in my life. It has been a really cool growing experience for me. I know that God supports His servants and as members of the church, we are all witnesses of Christ. We took/take His name upon us. I love you all and I hope you all are doing well!

We good though! I think this experience will truly be for my good! Also, I can brag that I out lived 5 sisters in Pasuquin! So this week, we had our interviews with President Peterson and I realized while we were there that I feel so comfortable talking with them so I was happy to find that out about myself. It was a good interview.  We also had another great lesson with someone Elder Dagulo and I found last week so that was awesome! Sisters Autufuga and Mariano are going home and I am going to Cagayan! I'm going specifically to an area called Ballesteros. I am not only transferring but also becoming the senior companion! That is super crazy for me. Elder Dagulo is going to have Elder Peterson (a ...
