Hey guys! Sorry I didn't get the first weeks email out for you all!
It's been crazy busy here! The first week we were here at the MTC was
all about running around trying to figure out which buildings are which
and which buildings i had to be in! We met out TRCs, Training Resource
Center investigators, and they were pretty cool! Max I'm pretty sure is a
member that is acting as an investigator but he was awesome to talk
too! He is into app advertisement so he is responsible for the annoying
ads that pop up while playing games on your phones! haha! Anyways,
Harper, our other investigator who we think is a member is from Hawaii
and she looks like shes from the 80s! She was also great to get along
with but we couldn't get them to commit to baptism.. My Companion and I
don't really click when it comes to the church but when we aren't talking
about the church we get along great! He is here on blind faith which is
so hard to do! I don't know how hes doing it! I wouldn't be out here if i
were in his shoes! He has never recognized the Holy Ghost which is a
key thing to know and feel while out here! He doesn't want to go hope
because he wants to set the example for his younger siblings. A little
bit about him. He grew up in a black neighborhood so he acts like he is
black. I would send pictures of all of us but i cant figure out how to
load my pictures onto the email so, sorry guys! But hes name is Elder
Kenny Rothe. Its a German name and its pronounced Ro-Thee. Long story
short, he is the exact opposite of me. I love the mountains, he loves
the city. I love trucks, he loves cars. So on so forth. The guys in my
district are all going to Jamaica with me except for my companion who is
going to Idaho Falls. He is from AZ. Its been rough for him here
because he doesn't have a strong testimony and its been really hard on me
because I have to do all the talking in our investigators meetings and
in class role plays with others. He has slowly been getting better at
helping me with our lessons but I'm still the one doing all the talking..
I am the District Leader. So everything that the district does runs
through me. Its been rough but also the best experience! I can't please
everyone all the time but when I do everything just runs so smoothly for
our district! This last few weeks have been so rough and good at the
same time so its a huge learning experience for all of us here!
I leave for Jamaica on Tuesday the 15th at 3:30 in the morning! I wont get to Jamaica until 9:00
that night! Its gonna be a long day full of plane rides but man I cant
wait to get there! Sorry this one is short but I have a lot of laundry
and meetings and a devotional to go to later! I love you All!
Scripture of the week, Alma 26:12.
Yours Truly,
Yay!! So exciting that he is a District Leader. He is going to AWESOME!!👍
