This has been so
crazy! I am excited but super scared at the same time. It is crazy here and I
just need to pray my little heart out to understand enough Spanish. I am scared
out of my mind but oh well. Just have to get in there and do it. They are
giving me some time right now to email you guys and let you know I am alive and
will be going to my mission tomorrow. Spain is 8 hours ahead of Utah. They said
it takes about a week to send mail, and the stamps cost 82 cents each for
international - so about 2 week trips for letters - so stay on top of them
please! And I might break the bank on buying stamps...oh man this is going to
be crazy.
I have an amazing mission call, but at the
same time it is going to be a lot of work. I am in a foreign country where I
know absolutely nothing. I just need time to adjust and start to know what I am
doing and learn Spanish more so I can actually converse with people. This is
going to be so hard. Never have I had to rely more on the Lord then I do now. Pray
for the Spanish!! And for me. I guess that is all I have to say for now, I am
trying to keep my spirits as high as possible and not doubt myself!! Hopefully
Monday is my p-day, which it should be and I can hear back from you. I knew I
was going to miss the MTC because the spirit is so strong. I have to go create
my own spirit now. Wish me luck!! I love you all and thank you so much for the support.
Believe in Christ. I know I can do this no matter how hard it is, the Lord is
on my side.
Love,
Elder Farah
