O just a missionary life --- July 8th


 
Përshëndetje Familje!  Hope you all had wonderful week.  Motra Kokol has a fun quote that says "Statistics show that Birthday's are good for you! The people who have the most live the longest!" ha. I love it and am so glad you get to celebrate some birthdays this week.

 
This week has been so good. We have been working hard. Being a trainer is quite tricky really. I try my best to basically do everything, while really trying to help my trainee know what I am doing and learn how to do it with me so that in a few weeks she can be doing it just as well if not better than me! I really do enjoy training, but it can be quite exhausting also... especially starting up a new Huge area also. It has been tricky, not gunna lie, but I have been so blessed and so strengthened it has been amazing. My first week that I got here I got 3 lessons, the next week 8, the next week 15, and this week 17. Slowly but surely we are moving up!!! This last weekend I felt so exhausted and my mind literally hurt. It reminded me of the first few weeks I was in Albania. So exhausted and my mind always hurt from constantly trying to concentrate on the Language. It was the best feeling ever! Kinda like when your body is so sore after exercising hard, or going on a long hike. It is the best, Hurt, ever! It was good for me to not only think I was really doing my best, but to also feel it. Just gotta keep going! I love it. I love the Savior and the strength that we are able to receive from Him. The power of prayer, and the Holy Ghost. I don't know that I will ever know everything about how these things can work in us and for us. It really is a never ending road of more and more knowledge and opportunity to grow! The best!
 
 
Some pics from out our apartment window. Oh Tirana!! It has been such good weather here. I'm so. SO thankful it hasn't been psycho hot like it was last year and those few weeks at the beginning. It has been a little rainy off and on and I Love it! Definitely blessings!!

I love you all! Glad you are all doing so well. I am safe, healthy, strong, and working hard. Always striving to be and do my very best. This work is incredible. It never ceases to amaze me.
 

Love you! 
Motra Kristi Hoover
