All the classes and devotionals have been incredibly
spiritual and uplifting. This last tuesday we had a devotional with
Elder Holland and Elder Nelson. Yes, you read right, (end of first email- added next email below)
TWO GENERAL AUTHORITIES!
At once. There were a lot of rumors that it would be the whole First
Presidency, because we were celebrating the 50th anniversary of the MTC,
but the two Apostles was just as good. I got to sing in the choir which
was a really neat experience that I'm glad I did since I only have one
more week to do so.
We got our travel plans yesterday and I will be flying
out the 14th of February at night. I should be able to call during my
layover in LAX. I'm excited to get to Guatemala, but I'm actually
finding myself sad to go at the same time. I love my teachers here at
the MTC and I love the feeling here.
We had an interesting experience this last week as we
were thrown into teaching our first investigator the first Friday. We
taught him everyday after that except for Sunday I think and then we
found out yesterday he was our other teacher. Fun stuff. I accidentally
asked him if he was married in the lesson and that lead to a pretty
great reaction. Ha.
So, it's kind of hard to see all the other hermanas and
elders get letters and packages every day when I've only gotten two
letters, but they're families and friends sends them enough treats for
the rest of us. And it's important to focus on the work. I really want
to learn this language so that I can be the best instrument of the Lord
as possible.
I hope you all are doing well!
Love,
