WEEK 14 - Q&A

We have been asking for friends and family to send questions to me (Alison) they would like Aidan to answer. THANK YOU to all the people who have been sending them! It's been fun to read your questions (and Aidan's responses). If you have a question you'd like answered, email me at alisonf76@gmail.com or text it to me. Thanks!

1. Aliese Leslie - What is the best thing to hear in your emails?
The best thing to hear about is literally just life. I have no idea what is going on over there so I just love to hear about anything, what people are doing, what is changing, and just life. I also LOVE LOVE LOVE pictures.

2. Aliese Leslie - What is something you DON'T want to hear in emails/letters?
Basically the only thing I don't want to hear is... nothing. I can't think of anything that I wouldn't want to hear. I love hearing about everything.

3. Aliese Leslie - What do you want us to specifically pray for for you?
Something that I can always use is patience, the mission is a great lesson of patience. So a few prayers to help me be more patient would be lovely. :)

4. Rikke Kotter - How long are you considered a "Greenie" and why is it called that in the first place?
I'll be honest, I have actually never heard that term here in the mission, but you are basically considered new until you are friends with the other missionaries and have at least one change (transfer) in the mission. But people say that they still feel new at 15 months, so who knows.

5. Rikke Kotter - Do the other missionaries play jokes on the Green Beans and if so what's the best one you've seen or experienced so far?
They actually only do stuff that will help them, mostly putting them in situations where they have to talk to people. Like knocking a door and walking away, leaving basically just the new missionary to talk, and then coming back to help of course. I have had that done to me a couple times.
