Today was one of the most spiritually enriching days I've had abroad. It was so nice to attend church in Da Haag even if we walked for 45 minutes to get there) and be uplifted by other members and their personal experiences. In Sunday school we talked about being truly converted to Christ and the importance of having our own personal conversion to the gospel. I loved hearing the members talk about their growing testimonies and realizing we are all working towards salvation together. It was a great meeting. :) Sacrament meeting was great as well, but I was pretty distracted by the language. It's funny. Because some Dutch words sound English, the words I don't understand sound gibberish. Not all the time though...At one point, we listened to a guy from Ganda give a talk in English and when this member (who actually played in The Best Two Years!) translated for the Dutch members, I think I understood more of his Dutch than the speaker's English. Bottom line, church was entertaining and I needed it!
The rest of today was relaxing for the most part. Sunday's such a bonus on a study abroad ;) though I can't wait to go into Amsterdam tomorrow...love it!
