So, it's insanely cool that Rachel's going to Russia :) I've
been telling people all about it. That kinda thing is exciting here lol....
They said that the average amount of mission aplications since
conference has been around 3,400 each week. They said that's about 471%
increase from the weekly average before 8D....awesome stuff.
Our sacrament meetings aren't in Dutch cause we have a mixed
zone. A lot of our old zone left this Monday though. Actually, most of em. The
only ones we have now is our Dutch group, a few of the old Dutch group who have
to wait for their visas cause they're going to Suriname, and a group of English
Elders who are going to Denver North.
But just this week we got one Danish Elder (he's all by himself.
He got assigned to our districts and Staley and Liang bring him from place to
place) and 8 more English elders.
And I have to tell you all something, this last week, me and
Elder King (that's right, weep over my grammar;) got called to be the Zone
leaders. So now we're in charge of making assignments for sacrament and also
doing orientations on Wed and Thursday for the new Elders. We're doing a
meeting and a tour tonight. Heh, good thing I know where I'm going most the
time now lol.
So that's new. We're able to go to the temple each week too, and
that's nice. Yesterday, we had a role-play where our teacher (Brother Norton)
taught me as the investigator with Elder Muse, and he taught about the plan of
salvation. It was an amazing experience. It was a full role-play, about thirty
minutes, and I could feel that spirit of the message as he taught.
I was able to catch a glimpse of what it was like to be taught
the gospel, and be told about the hope that it brings. I was reminded too of my
testimony of this church. The Gospel's true. I know it, and that's why I'm
here, cause I want others to know it. And that's what God wants too :) Ik hou
van jullie and wish you the best.
From the MTC, (where time really doesn't exist) (and it snowed
today:) (and the cafeteria is determined to double your size),
