My first p-day

Oi! Friends and Family,

Hey, so it is my first p-day at the CTM (or MTC depends on who you are talking to). It is really so fun, I love it. We get to go out around Casa Verde on p-day, Pres. Carden told us that he wants us to spend most of p-day out of the MTC, not only so that we can get out of the monotony of the MTC but also so that we can get out and see Brazil and get used to living out here. It is sort of funny, we are only allowed to travel within a 5-block radius of the MTC so within that 5-blocks there are all these stores that sell CTM shirts and mission bags. This week we are at Mr. Chenys Cookies, we are allowed to use the internet for free and we get a free cookie because it is our first week. I think it’s way funny. As a district today we went out to eat and I had a burger that was the greasiest things that I have ever had. I think I might just die of heart disease. But, like the Elders told me, at least I will die happy.

It has sort of been a hard adjustment to life in the CTM. I am not sure how to put it into words but I think they are trying to cram my brain full of so many things that I am on overload all the time. But, I know that it’s all good and that it is going to all make sense someday. Like Pres. Carden said, he has seen thousands of missionaries come through and I will not be the first to not learn the language in the CTM, but I will learn the langue because all the other thousands have.

My companions name is Sister Thompson she is great and I love her. She is half black and so everyone thinks that she is Brazilian and that she can speak Portuguese, but she can’t, it puts her in funny situations all the time.

Today we went to the Campinas Temple it was beautiful!!! And I was grateful for the time to write some letters and to just sit and talk with my companion about anything but language stuff; she is really cool and very talented. The men that are in my district are great I am grateful for there fun loving attitude and the fun that we are able to have. Some times it can get sort of out of hand but it is no problem because during Mission Directed Study Time (aka MDST) SisT and I can go into a different room or go work on TALL (a language learning program).

I know that I am not so good with languages and that it is really just a blessing to get such smart and advanced people in my district, but it’s hard for me to see them to be doing so well and feel like I am behind. But it is good Tudo Bem !!!! I love it and know that I am doing what I am suppose to be doing.

I love you all way more that I could ever possibly tell you in just a letter or with words,
Love Kate Felt

p.s. best news ever !!!!! I don’t have to were nylons!!!!! Mutio Bem!

Mission Again

Ok so I know that this is like all that I post about but it is what I am faced with all the time so if you are sick of it just don’t read my blog I am ok with that.

I changed my background so that it is more mission appropriate.
I will try to post my letters to you all this way, so that you can just read the blog and know what is going on and if you want to comment that is fine I don’t really know what the rules are but I will try to keep you all informed of what is going on.

In a few hours I will be 9 days away from leaving on my mission, that is rock’en. I have been thronged with ever emotion that could possible be associated with this type of transition. Most of the time I find myself over come with joy, the time has finally come for me to go. Other time I find my self, terrified and dreading the task at hand.

Any way I just wanted to tell y’all that I love you and thank you for your love and support. I would like to thank all my friends that drove to Richfield to see me talk. And well for that mater my family but really they don’t really read this so I guess that someday I will just tell them if they are not getting a thank you note in the mail already. I am also extremely grateful to my brothers that were all there and their significant others and also the biggest thanks of all to my mom and dad.

My mom worked all week long, at great personal scarifies, to make the little shin dig/ Peay family Thanksgiving dinner possible. But her love does not stop in just her works but flows freely like always in her words. And my Dad is as always the most supportive man I know. He normally makes me figure things out on my own but he is always there to listen. I think that he just might be my number one fan. He came to hear me talk and was with the family for most of the day even though he was feeling extremely ill. And later than night he was able to give me so wonderful counsel. I love him, and I hope that someday I can find a man to be as good of a head of the household as my dad is.

Well it is late and I am done with the other stuff that I was doing so I think it is time for me to be going but I do want to say thanks to any one that read this, have a great day and smile.
