i'm a trainer!

Hi!!
 
So this week. Honestly, I feel like my brain can not think of anything that happened before Thursday night. Transfer calls night. If you train, President Gilbert usually calls. So 9:15 roles around, and the AP calls. Tells us Sister Freeman is leaving to go back to Busan. The little bum wont tell me who my companion is. Well 9:45 roles around, and he calls again. Tells us who Sister Freeman's new companion is, and then says, "Sister Cheney you are training." Huh?! Lets try that again! I think you just said that a foreigner who is horrible at the language and is just finishing her 3rd transfer will be training. In the area where she herself finished her training. I tried to tell him it was a joke and that they were pulling my leg but he just laughed and said he was serious. So as of right now, my new companion is still in Utah sleeping at the MTC for her last night. I am one of only 2 sisters training this transfer. I have to be honest and say that I feel so inadequate and under qualified, but I know the Lord will bless me as I turn to him in prayer and faith. "Doubt not, fear not." But all the extra prayers you have would be greatly appreciated.
 
So I am with a temporary companion for the next few days, the only other training sister. We are traveling between our two areas to prep our apartments and do cleaning, shopping everything like that. Today after transfer meeting, we had a training meeting and lunch aka, lots of Korean and me sitting in a room filled with missionaries who have all been out for a year or more. Wednesday we do an activity with the new missionaries were we go out and do contacting and have dinner. That night we sleep in Busan, and the next day they give us our new companions. Then we have practice lunch and head off to our areas.
 
We had many miracles this week but no time to write. Please pray for my new trainee and me. I need lots of help and blessings. 

Funny - today an elder was saying how a bunch of missionaries were proud because they were going to be co-senior companions, and then they heard I was training, and it floored them! Haha. The first one from my MTC group!
 
I will no longer be sister training leader thankfully. After talking with Sister Gilbert, I feel so much better not trying to juggle that as well. I am still in the same area which means I will probably be here until the beginning of December. Here we go baby!
 
Love you all!
 
Love Sister Cheney
