Please don’t try emailing that email. I won’t work. I already tried. My district almost tricked one of the sisters that it was my comp’s email. But I was curious. So I emailed this mystery account owner about the Book of Mormon and sadly he does not exist.
Hello! This week has absolutely FLOWN by. Time
flies when you’re feeling the spirit. That’s the saying right?
On Sunday I gave my farewell and my Comp pulled
up with his family! It was an awesome sort-of surprise! I had to give them the
address. It was great to meet Elder Lyman in person though! It’s weird that
with home MTC you can have a companion come to your farewell haha.
Classes are solid right now although I’m
definitely getting tired of Zoom. The Amharic is going well! I’m starting to
feel like I can actually speak it rather than just memorize it. It’s been fun
creating random sentences and seeing our teacher’s reaction. But it’s also been
a really neat experience to be able to create (me or the spirit you decide)
sentences on the fly while teaching or practicing that are so spiritually
powerful.
As a district we’ve been getting lessons from
Spanish Elders in one of our Elder’s areas and it’s been amazing. One of the
Elders told some of the craziest stories I’ve ever heard and also had a GOAT
quote (I'm trademarking that). I’ll share it and that will be my spiritual
thought for today. We were talking about mission goals and he shared this: “My
goal is to come home and for people to know the strength of my testimony
without me having to say a word.” Boom. So good. I challenge you all to strive
to let your service and example become the best indicator of your testimony.
Through our actions others can come to feel and know the light and love of our
Savior Jesus Christ.
Lastly, I got to meet up with all the Utah
Elders in my district! We took pictures at the Oquirrh Mountain Temple and then
got some Red Robin. Good stuff! My district is awesome!
