Week Seven

Emily started by saying she is still experiencing night terrors regularly and is told by her roommates that she screams out every once in awhile throughout the nigh.  The only way she could explain it is that she gets so excited at night and is wide awake thinking about things and then crashes.  Other than that Emily said this week was wonderful and again mentioned how much she loves Sundays!  She spoke in church this week and said her talk was all in Spanish.  She said she loved it and and wasn't worried one bit.  She also said her relief society lesson was really good this week and sent an excerpt from her journal that day.  It read:  "The night before I prayed to learn more about the atonement.  Of course the lesson was on the atonement.  I know Christ went though what he did so we would know how to succor me Emily Clayton in time of need and run to my aid.  I know he is walking by me every step of the way.  The the devotional was about Come Come Ye Saints.  Wow this week I have been so proud to be a Clayton that song is amazing and the speaker talked about how it relates to missionary work so much and how we can have pioneer faith and be a pioneer for the people in Florida.  I feel so blessed to come from such a wonderful heritage.  A mission is so fun!  I have enjoyed it so much this week."  Also this week Emily said they had a good week in her trio.  They fasted and read their Book of Mormon in Spanish together and only spoke Spanish for two days.  She said her Spanish is improving and she is becoming more confidant.  She said she talks every lunch and dinner with one of the Spanish workers.  Other than that she mentioned she has a new running sister buddy and they go running together every morning and try to talk in Spanish while they run!
