Two days ago,
late at night, I saw a few of the missionaries in my district singing
this song, Come unto Christ. I joined in, thinking nothing of it, until I
was pulled out of class the next day to audition for a devotional
group. I still didn't think anything would happen because our group was
really unprepared- we hadn't read the rules or memorized the music, and
one of us (there were only 5) was wearing a sweater instead of a suit
coat. We did about a dozen minor violations like that, but even still we
sang so well that we got 3 days notice THAT DAY that we were going to
be singing in front of half of the MTC during the departure devotional
on Sunday!!! I'm going to practice like crazy! You should have heard our
piano player, Elder Sands. He's only 18, but he's written and played
10+ songs that he's sold do record companies. He's amazing!
Also
this week, we've been teaching a TRC member- basically, it's all
role-played out like they're real investigators. Some of them are
members, some aren't but we aren't told which. Every interaction with
them is purely role play, there's no evaluation afterward or talking as
anything but missionaries. I got pretty lucky though- mine is awesome.
His name is Chad, and he loves learning about and debating about the
gospel. Every lesson with him, I think I learn more than he does!
Things
here have been hectic! It seems like either we're rushing around trying
to get stuff done, or sitting in class. You need to tell Sam to check
his email- I'm sending him one too. If I can figure out how to get this
computer to send pictures, I'll send about 20 of them. Have fun at home!
