Snail mail letter from March 3rd.

Yesterday I sang in the choir for devotional. It was awesome - we sang "Come thou fount of every blessing". It was great!!!! Such a beautiful song and sung so amazingly!!! It was fun.
I was also called as Coordinating Sister. What I do with this calling is watch out for the Sisters in my Zone. There are 6 girls right now. When new girls come I'll be welcoming them and helping them. I need to uplift and love and be an example and I think I have to do interviews. It's neat. I'm also the Senior Companion right now, only b/c my last name came first, it rotates among my companions.
It is so neat being here! I hear testimonies all the time in different languages. We're given commitments all the time as we learn how to be great missionaries. We make goals as companions, districts, zones and individually of course.
Some goals are to learn 10 new Spanish words a day, read the BOM everyday, Give 20 contacts a week, Bo on time to everything. Yesterday we had a "English Fast". so we were trying to only speak Spanish - it wasn't that successful but a good reality check. Need to focus more on learning Spanish.
Being exactly obedient is a lesson I learn everyday. So important b/c then the Spirit can work fully w/me and that's another big lesson I learn all the time - The importance of having the Spirit w/me ALL THE TIME.
Also how important serving a mission is. and not giving up or being discouraged. How I need to work hard EVERY MINUTE! Those are the biggest lessons I'm learning I would say, or/and most often, Everyday probably-It's great!!!!!
My clothes are treating great! Almost everything has been used/worn and I think will work out nicely in Argentina. I'm not sold on all my shoes.... but I'm not for sure yet. Which is lame. I haven't done a lot of hills in them so that's where I'm a little doubtful.
