Hallo iedereen!!

Ik heb de sterkste verlang om deze hele email in Nederlands te schrijven--maar ik weet dat meestal van jullie zullen het niet begrijpen, dus ik zal het in Engels doen. Helaas lol :)

- We had 5 meals with members this week!! I've never had that on my mission before. It was kind of amazing. 

- We went with one of my favorite members to her patriarchal blessing!! It was amazing. Even being in the same house when she was getting it had the strongest spirit. :) and I just love her, so it's awesome haha :)) ...it included the best Chinese food I've ever had afterwards, so that was fun haha. I tried ginger ice cream and was pleasantly surprised!!

- I made PB cookies out of 4 ingredients. They were good, probably won't try it again though. I've had better :/ 😂 

- We went to two castles/museums last week for Pday!! It was way fun.

- We had a lesson with our friend from last week! Her whole family was there which was awesome. ...but also her neighbor, who was very bashy... that part was less fun. But we very clearly saw the power of the Book of Mormon that night and the whole family stood up for us.

- A lot of our friends are leaving us on read... ...so hopefully that doesn't keep happening!

- WIEKE CAME TO CHURCH!!!!!! We've been meeting with her for months. We had a church tour with her and her boys this week, and she finally came on Sunday!!!! She brought one of her boys and is planning to bring both boys, her nephew, and her sister next week :)) 😁😁

I'm continuing to realize on my mission the full power of the Book of Mormon. Even just the physical presence of it brings me so much comfort, let alone the words that are inside!! I know the Book of Mormon is the word of God and that it can bring us closer to Christ than any other book. It truly is the BoMb ;)

Ik hou van jullie!! De kerk is waar, het boek is blauw, en deze Zuster is haar beste leven leiden :))

Groetjes, 

Zuster Weaver 


PS IM GETTING MY CELLO THIS WEEK and there's already a musical number I'm participating in so that's pretty absolutely the most excitingness everrrr

Hallo iedereen!! Ik hoop dat jullie een fantastische week hebben gehad :) ik ook, trouwens. - went to Delft last pday!! Turns out the more delft stores you go in, the more things you will buy.  - I bought a delft nativity!!!! Y'all I'm so excited hahaha, who needs clogs when you have a delft nativity. 🇳🇱🎄 - we went in delft stores that ranged from PROFESSIONAL don't look at it cuz you can't afford to breathe on it, to this one where a lady was sitting there painting the very delft pieces that were all over this amazing room. It was so cool :) - also there was a Christmas store. Yes. It made me very happy. You can see the picture by clicking on the link below. 👇 - Richard, our friend that we've been meeting with for months, has been very distant lately. Leaving us on read, the likes. Prayers for him please 🙏  - our other promising friend who is super cool also texted us and said she doesn't believe in the Book of Mormon. That one hurt too.  - BUT we have 4 r...

 You guys, Home MTC. That's it. That's all I have to say. Haha just kidding, it's a lot of fun!! Pretty exhausting. But my teachers are super cool! I'm trying to get to know my district more, but there hasn't been a lot of bonding time yet. Hopefully that will come. My comp is the  GREATEST.  She is super cool!! We both love to read and we both were in orchestra growing up, so that's fun! She loves Jane Austen, so we bonded a little over Pride & Prejudice ;) 😂  My cute comp Zuster Lay We've had zoom workshops across the whole MTC with all the new missionaries. Shout out to Vanem Peel and Elder McBride cuz I know you guys and it was fun to see you haha. We have roughly 6 hours of class everyday, plus a one hour workshop some days, and 3 hours of study. I think I clocked about 10 hours of screen time on Thursday... If you're doing HMTC, invest in some blue light blocking glasses. They're nice haha. Also make sure that you find time to exercise, be...

GOD IS GOED 😁

God is goed, that's all I have for this week :)) BUT we'll go into a little more depth: - We had interviews with my mission president and his wife this week!! SO good, I love them :) - I GOT MY CELLOOOOO it made me so happy - I'm part of a music video now with my cello, so that's taking up all our time this week. I've literally never arranged anything before so it kind of stretched my musical abilities. But I didn't realize how much I missed playing with other people 😭 there's this certainly feeling you only get playing music with other people. I haven't had that feeling this much my entire mission. It made me so happy. We were sitting there playing and I was just grinning because it felt so good to play with people again!! And to play the cello again. Ahhh. Just God is goed, dat is alles. - We've had lots of service with our members recently, which has been so good! I love them so much. I feel like I might be leaving at the transfer, which breaks m...
