Whelp, this is email number 4! Crazy huh? It has gone by so so fast! I fly to North Carolina in 18 days! I am super duper excited but super nervous haha.
This week we learned a lot more S
panish. Which is very stressful haha. Yesterday we did something called an English fast". Which means yesterday we weren't allowed to speak any English. It was hard. But it was cool to see how much Spanish I actually do know! It is very easy to be discouraged because I see how much I don't know. But then I have to remind myself I have only been learning Spanish for 3 and a half weeks haha.
Our amazing district, with two of our teachers, Hermano Nelson y Hermana Cole
Thank goodness for PDay!
We are gonna celebrate Christmas Eve a little early this year!
I was excited, but not excited, when I woke up to this.

TRC's went great this week! Mine and Hermana Reese's Spanish TRC didn't go quite as planned just because of zoom and technology problems. But esta bien. We met with S again and had an AMAZING lesson. We started teaching her and we had a lesson planned, but ended up scraping it and just going with where the spirit took us. The spirit was so strong during that lesson. Me and my comp were both so happy with how it went. It made me so excited to get to the field soon!
My district always has super great discussions and I learn so much from them. One day this week we talked about Ether 3 in the Book of Mormon. I have read this chapter so much, but 4 verses into reading it with my district I had already learned so much more than I ever had before. I challenge everyone who reads this to go read Ether 3 again, and then let me know how it goes ;)
I guess I will tell you guys how a 'typical' day goes in the Home MTC...
I wake up at 6:30 and get ready for the day. At 7 I study for an hour, and then normally at 8 I facetime Hermana Reese and we study and plan lessons together. Our first class is from 9 am - 12 pm. (4 hours on zoom straight is so long haha) Then I don't have another class until 5:45. But in between those 6ish hours I have workshops (which are basically just extra classes with a lot of different missionaries, they are awesome), and tutor sessions, and TRC's. Then class from 5:45-8:45. Then more personal study until bedtime! It can get pretty busy sometimes, but sometimes I have a long enough break I can do some stuff with my mom haha.
Anyways, I love hearing from you guys! I hope you all have another great week!
Con amor,
Hermana Holt
