Yesterday was my first meeting for my new calling as the Secretary for the Relief Society. Let me just tell you this picture says it all. I have lived in Mexico for almost 2 years and am still struggling with the language. If I were to put a percentage on my level of skills. I would say; I understand about 67.8% of every thing spoken in Spanish. And I can speak about 18.1%. I really have to be pushing myself to even get these statistics. Which sometimes gives me a head ache. Yesterday was no different. But quite amazingly I understood everything I am suppose to do when it comes to my jobs. It was hard to pay attention for 2 hours though.

I will start having meeting every Tuesday. We have an activity every Thursday and we will do visits on Saturdays. I feel like I am going to be a very busy girl. But I am very excited. We already talked about visiting all our inactive's. My list has over 600 women and about 35 come on a good day. My list also has only 8 phone numbers. Two of which were wrong because they belonged to my President and the second councilor. So like I said my work is cut out for me.

The best thing of this whole situation is that I was called by the Lord and He knows my circumstances. He knows that I have difficultly in the language but He still called me. Therefore I know He will help me. Maybe this is my answer to my pleas at night for help with learning the language.
