"the night is dark and I am far from home"

Hello everyone!





Another week down and its absolutely flown by. The Polish has been coming along so much better, I can put together my own sentences which is really fun, and then last night we taught 2 20 minute lessons alllll in Polish which was really nerve wracking at first but I actually ended up really enjoying it and it made me realise how much Polish we've actually learned. 

The class time is getting a bit more fun, we're really starting to get into the grammar and things like that so it's getting interesting. We got to go to the temple last week and we get to go again today which I'm really looking forward to, it's fun to take the walk to the temple and get away from the MTC haha. I helped out yesterday with new missionaries.  It was a really nice experience.  I prayed for service opportunities and I feel like that was one.  

Quentin L Cook and his wife came and spoke as well on Tuesday which was the best, it was so good and I feel as though so many prayers were answered, he spoke about the importance of having a testimony of the Saviour and how this is the most important thing we can share with the people we meet. There were other things of course but this is what stood out to me the most. I also joined the MTC choir lol but it's actually really fun, and I got to sing for Quentin L Cook which was a good experience. We sang Lead Kindly Light which has become one of my favourite hymns, there's a line "the night is dark and I am far from home" and this is quite similar to how you feel as a missionary, but I know that the Lord is always with me. 



So yeah I'm doing alright, I'm having fun, I'm making loads of friends and I'm learning about my Saviour every day so I can't complain haha.
