September is over, I can wake up now // week 5
3:38 PMHola everybody. Its crazy to think that my time in the MTC is rapidly
coming to an end. If you understand the song reference in my title, I
love you.
This week was good. To be quite honest all of my weeks are good, its hard to remember everything that happens though...
Friday:
We got our travel plans. I would say "flight plans" but I am taking a
train to SLC. So I get "teased" a lot because of my lack of travel. But I
do get to go on a train so that is pretty exciting.
Sunday:
Our district sang a song in sacrament. We sang "Grand Eres Tu" (how
great thou art). It was so good. We even had 4 part harmony and
everything. It was our last temple walk. Very sad but it was good. We
saw "Open your Mouth" by President Holland, SO GOOD. We had a devotional
by Steven Allen. He made commercials for the church back in the day.
And we officially became the oldest district in our branch. I also saw
Hermana Morgan Smith.
Monday:
We were able to watch Richard G. Scott's funeral. It was really good.
Not sad at all. It was a celebration of an apostle's life. We were able
to teach a member via Skype. Her name is Augustina and lives in URUGUAY.
It was all in spanish and it was great. You could feel the spirit via
skype. Super powerful experience. She told us that our spanish was great
and even though we may not be perfect, it doesnt matter. Just focus on
the spirit. Oh speaking of Uruguay, when does Daniel Brock report and
where?
Tuesday:
We had an amazing devotional by Claudia R. M. Costa (we are all
guessing that he is going to be a new apostle. But we shall see) He is
currently the president of the Quorum of the 70. It was fantastic. A
great way to end our devotionals at the MTC
Wednesday:
It was our last day with Hermano Gomes. it was so sad. He has been an
amazing teacher and has helped all of us progress with teaching and
speaking spanish so much. So there were tears that were shed, but it is
good. We are going to serve the Lord.
con amor,
Hermana Olivas
