Buenas días!!!
Well, well, well two months ago this day I arrived here at the mtc and now tomorrow I leave here for Chicago!! This is seriously insane! I have alre4ady been out on my mission for the past forever.....As for this week here is the down low of what happened...
Tuesday: well for the third week in a row for our Tuesday devotional I had the opportunity to hear the words and the presence of another great apostle....this week it was Elder Ballard. I just can’t believe that I have been so lucky to have been able to hear and see one apostle let alone 3! Elder Ballard talked about how important it is for us as missionaries to become master communicators, and to be able to talk about the gospel anywhere. He also talked about first impressions and the importance of the fact that we can only make one first impression so we need to make a good one and the key to that is smile. How is the spirit supposed to be able to show through a grumpy face?? It’s not.
Wednesday: Me and Hna West went and did that orientation thing where we were the "model" missionaries and met some investigators and got to know them. It was pretty cool since we got to wear mics and were in front of a lot of missionaries.
Thursday: it was our last TRC and it went really well...our Spanish has gotten so much from when we both first arrived. I can’t even believe the amount of growth that I have had with the Spanish. We taught the plan of salvation and the law of tithing...
Saturday: well this would be our last gym day and we went out to the field and played softball while we listened to the byu football game going on around us...other than that not much else happened.
Sunday: This day was weird, our last fast Sunday here and it just hit me that this time next week I will be in a new ward with a different companion and not all of the people I’m around will be missionaries. it was the weirdest thing...we had the departure devotional where you learn about all the things you needs to know in your field like flying and basically one last stress on the missionaries to be obedient...and then for the Sunday night Devo Sheri Dew came and spoke to us, and boy is she a great public speaker...she was awesome! She talked about things that we needed to know so that we could fulfill our missions here on earth, and that our time here on earth is like 3minutes and 27 seconds compared to whole scheme of things so how are we going to live these 3min 27 sec?
Today: equals packing, packing, packing....so I’m so sorry if you don’t all get a letter from me as soon as you would have wanted but I have so much to do!! and its a good thing that my pdays are on Wednesdays especially this week because now I get 2 pdays in a week!! :) and tomorrow we are getting a tour of Chicago!
So thank you all for your letters!!! they have been awesome!!
hugs kisses! love you!!
