This week was very good
Hah this week has been really great!!!!
I am learning so much here and it is really amazing!!! umm besides Tuesday
haha. I caught the bug that has been going around all the CCM and it was so
bad!!!! I woke up feeling kind of
crappy but I went to class any way. Then around like 9 I hurried out of class
and puked in the bathroom!! haha it was so bad! So then I went to the
infirmaries and got some medicine and crackers and stuff and they told me to
just go back to the casa and lay down. So I did and I slept from 9:30 am until
9 at night!! haha all the guys in the district took turns being my companion
and so I was taken care of. I was going to get a blessing but I felt so much
better in the morning I didn't need one.
The Spanish is coming along great! I
am getting so much better at understanding and communicating. It’s incredible!!
A 20-minute lesson in Spanish is like nothing now, ha. But we did have a lesson
with this kid that talked really fast and kind of mumbled so we didn’t
understand that much from him. So I think that gave us a little taste of what
we are going to see in Sacramento.
The coolest experience I had this
week was in one of our TRC lessons. TRC is where volunteers come in off the
street and just learn or they can act like investigators. So we met with this
girl named Janice. And she really is a member but she is acting like an
investigator for us and we taught her last week and learned that her dad has
cancer. For real he does and so that made the lesson mean that much more. Last
week we taught her about prayer and eternal families. So the goal for this week
was to teach more about the restoration. So when we went in to our lesson with
Janice I said the opening prayer and somewhere in the middle I felt like we
needed to teach her the plan of salvation and a little more about eternal
families.
So I said in the prayer for her to
learn about Gods plan for her and her family and the lesson went great!! The
spirit was so strong there. She was crying and we knew what we were saying was
just what she needed to hear. Its amazing how the spirit works and can guide
us. I love it so much. So after the lesson Elder Nielsen said to me that when I
started praying he had the thought that we should change our lesson to the plan
of salvation. Then right after he
thought it, I said it in my prayer haha. Cool huh??
Anyways I’m doing great!! Time is
flying by here and only less then three weeks left here!! Can’t believe it.
Love you all!!!
P.S. Elder Neilsen’s first name is
Braeden.
Gracias por todos sus orraciones!! Yo
sentio las
bendiciones todos los dias!!(Thanks
for all the prayers!! I feel the blessings everyday!!)
