WEEK 5 Western Michigan University

Well here is week 5 in the books
I was able to email back and forth a bit with her.  She is enjoying a new cultural experience.  The population is largely African American.  She has loved getting to know many new friends.
She said that the rain there is in sheets not drops.  She had spaghettios, eggs and toast for Sunday dinner, because they don’t have dinner appts. as much on Sundays. She said she gets to teach Gospel Principles on Sunday and she seemed happy about that.  
So here is her email….

Hey thanks for the package I loved it. :) Also all of the letters I am slowly trying to find time to respond to all of them. This week has been pretty crazy but fun. :) On Monday we went to the mall and I got a coat it’s super warm and cute. We then went to dinner at the Stevens house. Tuesday we went to loaves and fishes and then went and saw some investigators.  Sister Blanco took us to her Restaurant to eat El Gallo Blanco is so good :)  We also went and saw Sister Neeley she is probably my favorite lady ever. She is so so so funny.  :) Wednesday we had zone training and then we went to visit some less active members and  went door knocking so that was good. Then Sister Hunt took us out to Red Robin it was so yummy. We went to Addiction Recovery class with one of our less active members that was good. Thursday we went door knocking again that was interesting haha then we went to dinner at the Siebers and traded off so we switched comps and I went and slept over at the WMU Sister apartment so that was exciting. Then Friday me and Sister Anderson went to campus and talked to people. We also taught a lesson and that was so awesome. The spirit was so strong. :)  Then we went and got pumpkin steamers to celebrate my one month mission mark :) Then we went and played ultimate frisbee for FHE so that was fun. And I got to tour that cool white church :) Then we traded back companions.  Saturday we had super saturday so that was fun, after we went and taught an active member lesson at a members house. We are teaching this lady named Abigale and her 2 kids. Their baptismal date is on the 3 of Dec.  She has thee cutest kids ever. She has 4 children.  Then we had dinner at the Bruggers they feed us a lot. Most of the people in our ward are here going to medical school.
Sunday was good we had church and Abigale and 2 of her kids came :) then we went to Ward Choir and  had lunch and call ins it’s weird we don't get a lot of dinner appointments on Sundays but during the week we have tons. Then we went to mission prep it was so awesome I learned a ton. :)  this week has been pretty great while we were on campus Sister Anderson stopped a guy and I was like why is she stopping him cause he was behind us and going a different way. But we got talking to him and he said oh yeah i have been to your church a few times with my cousin in Jamaica and I love it. So we invited him to church and he said he would come. :) Sister Anderson said she didn't even know why she stopped him. She just felt like she needed to.
