September 13th, 2014 Slow Days - Fast Weeks


Hola,
One of the main sayings here at the MTC is.. the days are slow.. but the weeks are super fast!! Its so true! This week was actually a little more exciting then the last ones!! On Wednesday we went to the Mexican consulate in Salt Lake City! We traveled by train so it was kind of exciting since i have never been on a train before! We had to walk a little bit in the city and the people in SLC are either super nice or kinda mean and hate us! We went into the gas station and there was about 20 of us and a guy offered to buy us all drinks!! He was so nice! Such a great guy! Also my comp has a little bit of a staring problem.. he was staring right at a guy that was opening his can of chew.. and the guy asked him.." You want a dip"! My comp said no.. and walked away!! I died laughing and told him that he needed to work on his little problem! My comp is getting better! I finally see that he is wanting to improve and get better at the language.
Here in the MTC you teach investigators(members that act fake) but ours is a super great guy and is so easy to love!! Its amazing how fast you love your investigators! On our second lesson.. We got him to commit to baptism! it was so awesome! we were the first ones out of our district to ever get someone to be baptized. Everyone thought we could never do it.. but we did!:) ha teaching makes me want to get in the field that much more! Whenever I'm teaching to the needs of the investigator(which i try to do every time) i feel the spirit so strongly! I love this gospel and can't wait to get to Tampico and teach the people there! We have 2 weeks from Monday!! Mom i will be home before you know it!!
My comp and I have also been made the coordinators of the sacrament!! Super easy but kinda fun also! So we get to pick people to bless and pass the sacrament! We are gonna bless it next week! i have to get my comp ready for it so we don't have to say it a million times! i love serving the lord and am so blessed with the best family ever! love you guys!
Te Amo,
Elder Facer
P.S That package you sent me mom was the best!! I love everything about it! it might last me 2 weeks!! i have some random things that i might need for you to send me in the future.. but that wont be for a little bit!
