Last week in the MTC

Yo, what is up everybody, I hope the video worked in that last email, it was pretty funny. If y'all don't see it, don't worry you ain't missing much. So this is our last week. And i cannot wait to be in Hong Kong. At times I feel like I am not ready, but then I read some of emails, from the past missionaries, and if they are doing great, then I most definitely can. To help we are doing a week long English fast. And boy oh boy is it rough not being able to say anything. I have learned a lot about myself these past two days of silence. I noticed that I would hide how I truly feel, and bury what I was thinking through words. Through actions and just talking and filling the silence. Now without the ability to constantly distract myself with others, my personal thoughts are constantly up front. I don't like it, but I don't feel like I have ever been this honest with myself before. I feel so weak, and lowly, and broken, but this is where my Lord needs me to be so he can rebuild me. Meekness, is not Weakness, it is Might in the Lord's Light. I love ya'll!

Another week at the MTC

Cool so that title is from my forehead, hope yall like it. 

  Anyways this week, hmmm let me see. MTC is starting to really take a toll on me. Just a few more weeks. Then I will be surrounded by small people speaking a language I can barely speak. Pretty Excited. Very grateful that I am only here for 9 weeks. If I was here for 12 weeks I would be going a little bit crazy. Some things that are keeping me sane are the scriptures and being able to run in circles every mornin(the track). Some cool stuff that happened this week is that I started to teach my progressing investigators by myself again. I feel like it has really helped me out a lot. Really having to listen to what they say and figure out what their needs are. So I can better help them closer to Christ. So with that they have both accepted a baptismal date this week, so now I am gonna go over some covenants this week to help them continue to receive that change of heart. Hope it will work out. 

Quote of the week "Give me two days, and I can make you an airplane out of paperclips and tampons!" 

Pretty funny 

So yeah gonna bounce, gotta prep some lessons. See yall next week.
