This week was beyond crazy and I hardly can remember it for some reason! Sounds like a party with non-mormon drinks! O.O but I think if I concentrate I'll remember. So we've gone through more teachers than I can count and with it the investigators that they were pretending to be. I can say most of them were making it hard for us to convert them. We started TRC which is something where we teach someone who might or might not be a member and there have been stories of someone getting baptized because of these so hopefully me and my companion will teach well. I can say that I am passing through a very hard week and once it's over I'll be good to go :) So this week district 123-C brilliantly decided that they should play a prank on us right when our teacher was teaching us. Needless to say it involved some foam poop. Don't ask. The aftermath resulted in a DL being released and Elder Pudil being assigned as acting DL. He's not in our district and we didn't get in trouble I promise. I don't like that they chose Pudil but I'll make it. Hermano Dolbin never ceases to give us the most spiritual experiences and he really is excited when he talks about the gospel. It's pretty inspiring.
A couple of pics of my classrooms
So I saw Elder Diamond and I saw Elder Johnson this week and I thought that was nice. they're both people that went to high school with me. It's weird saying that. I really enjoyed the pictures you sent me Tay! I really enjoyed them and I even printed out 2 of them and one of them was obviously of Pepper. I've got 2 weeks left in the MTC and I'm ready to get OUT OF HERE!! Maybe fly on a plane for the first time. Ya that's always good. Looking forward to flying on a plane than the actual going to the mission! I looked at my mission via interactive map (Google maps) on the church website and I discovered really fast that the water is green over there. GREEEN!! and it's not St. Patrick's Day over there either. We had 3 basketball injuries in one day this week. 2 of the three were bad enough for the trainer and they both happened to both the people in a companionship. The first injury was Elder Pudil (I don't think it was a coincidence) he feel onto someone's knee with his neck and it was nothing broken but probably a bruise. The thing is he stayed absolutely still for a good 2 minutes in a position holding his neck. He wouldn't answer me or the trainer when we asked if he was alright. The second was Elder Pudil's companion Elder Blanding. He reached in to steal and he caught an elbow to his nose. He is SOOOOO lucky he didn't break it or had to get his nostril reattached. But the thing about him is he really puts on a show if he falls so needless to say I didn't think it was bad until I say his nose barely holding together. The third was a guy (don't know his name) who landed straight on his hip but he was tough and kept playing. My companion I have come to find out is like Ster he just shows me up when it comes to lifting so I avoid ever having to lift with him instead I do push ups and whatever I can do without weights. I have gone more times to the temple than I have ever gone in my lifetime and it has really blessed me! I feel your prayers and I am very grateful for them.
The Church is true and the Gospel is true. Jose smith fue una profeta y traduci el libro de mormon. I know that Jesus died for us so that we can come back to live with him and all we have to do is accept his sacrifice and live to be like him. Yo se que familias pueden juntos por eternidad. I also know that the gospel is happiness and the gospel is love. I have learned that more especially with the people that I have in my district. En el nombre de Jesucristo Amen.
