Hola! (week 1)
This first week has been such a journey!! I am so thankful for the opportunity to be serving a mission at this time!! From the very first second i got here we have been inhaling Spanish!! The third day i was here we taught our first lesson in espanol! My companion is Elder Wilson, he is super obedient and very smart. its kind of hard because we both want to be the leader, but it is ok because we teach the gospel to those who need it.
I found elder Paker and Elder Kleinman!! I love them both so much! it is too bad that i did not have that much time with elder packer because his schedule was the exact opposite of mine. But I am in the same zone with elder kleinman and i am so thankful! He makes me laugh every time i am with him!
The first Sunday was so amazing! First of all i guess that is a benchmark in the MTC because everyone congratulated us. The reason Sundays are so special is because there is no class and it surely is a day of rest and delight! I attended the MTC choir and it honestly blew my mind! I have never heard such power in a simple church song! Also they play a special MTC only movie on Sunday from previous devotional given in the MTC! It was a talk called "Characters of Christ" by pres. Bednar, one of the most inspirational talks given. It makes everyone listen want to be like Christ.
Now for the most important part of the MTC!! Learning Spanish!! We learn spanish so quickly here that i have learned more spanish in one week than i have two years at school (i slept a lot at school)
i went from knowing nothing to being able to teach a 45 min lesson about the gospel with only minor awkward moments and a few "repitan pof favor".
I love this gospel and i know 100% that it is the truth! I see miracles every day and i wish everyone could see. I love you all!
