Transfer Week 12/22/2015

Dear Family,

So Zr. Zeegelaar doesn't start until after Christmas on the 27th so until then I'm with Zr. C and her comp Zr. Parker. Sooo, needless to say it's been a crazy week. They've been staying with me because they don't have an apartment yet but their area is like a 45 min bike ride from mine. We've tried going between both of the areas. I'm actually really excited for Zr. Zeegelaar to get here so we can start working together. I'm doing her real training. She's my newest "daughter".

Friday was fun becuase we got to go to the other branch's Christmas party. I'm pretty sure I know members from the entire district. It's always really fun when i can see everyone. The picture is of a girl from one of my fav families the Geffries. I don't know yet if we are allowed to go to my branch's Christmas party. Pres Egbert doesn't really like us going to branch activities. It's the weirdest thing so we have to get permission. 

The wind was so strong some days this week which made biking hard. It's also now the small rainy season now. The last two days have been all rainy. It's funny cause I actually get cold here. It's sad I know. 

Hmmm well we saw Beppi this week and had a pretty good lesson with her. She still hasn't come to church yet but I'm not losing my patience yet. I think she has great potential. We really didn't see a lot of our investigators this week. There was transfers and meetings and traveling and cleaning and parties. 

Sister Parker is really cool. She is from San Diego but she's lived through the world. Her mom is from the Netherlands so she is really excited to learn Dutch. She doesn't speak it.

We are having a missionary party today with a gift exchange and games. Should be good. No really awesome plans for Christmas. We will probably just deliver treats to members and things like that. 

I'm going to Trinidad on the 8th for MLC. I'm really looking forward to that. It'll be a lot of fun. 

I will be skyping around 7 pm my time. We will try to get people in for a group call so be prepared. My skype name is elizabethcwood. Sorry my letter is a little boring this week.
