So this week we pretty great!!! We had in field orientation which was a very long day on Friday, but it was better than being in the class room so it was good!! Elder Christensen had his 21st bday so we celebrated that on Saturday and we bought him food and just had fun!! We call him Sarge because he went to West Point for two years before his mission. :) Also sadly we had made some really good friends with some latinos and we had our last game with them on Friday :( But one said to us " I love you my friends, convert the world." The people down here are so freaking amazing it is hard to understand without being down here :) Down here we have this news update gadget so we have heard about the government shutdown. I hope it isnt affecting anybody to bad!! On sunday night we had our last testimony meeting together as a district and it was amazing, I shed a few tears haha but it was great knowing that they consider us family and it was so amazing!! Lets see I finally got my scripture cases!! They are so legit!!!
Yes I am excited to get to Texas!! I want to teach!! My teacher said I am so ready and that I have a gift to expound on scriptures and apply them to people. This morning we taught and the "lady" we taught doesn't have a job and has five kids that have problems, so I thought of the 2000 stripling warriors and how because of the love of the parents and and the teachings, especially from the mothers, the sons where then able to have faith and help their parents in return and none of them were lost. So it was really cool!!
I cant wait to get back to the states!! Especially for mail!! It sucks not getting mail for three weeks!! Please send letters and packages, those honestly made my week and everything was easier because I knew you guys were thinking of me! :)
