Week #9- Done! with the beginning

So I pretty much finished packing everything I'm not using to get ready in the morning by now. I'm ready to roll out to Texas. Fly, rather... but yeah. I feel pretty ready. I taught a lesson on how to teach part of the second lesson to a new advanced class, in Spanish, who're all from Mexico and Colombia and stuff, and they understood everything I said and it it all flowed pretty well. I can express just about anything I need to. I'm a lot better at speaking than writing, though... but that's okay, it'll come. Haha I know that I'm all confident in my Spanish now and the first person I talk to is just going to laugh at me because I'm such a gringo, but that's okay.

 

So we had the chance to teach Daniel Limon two more times this week and it went really well. Basically he kinda said we were probably right but he didn't feel it, an we pushed Him a little and he said he'd be more open and try the things we were suggeting, and that it'd better be worth it. The second one he was a lot better and he was sad to see us go. He told us that we'd been really good friends to him and to do the same to everyone we meet at th places we are going. Elder Jones left this morning, by the way. So I've been tagging along with another companionship today. We haven't gone many places, though, because it's our preparation day...

 

We got to watch the first presidency Chrismas devotional on sunday and it was so good. The Mormon Tabernacle Choir is amazing. If you didn't see it, watch it on lds.org. Totally worht it.

 

So yeah, there is a very very very very slight chance that I will be able to call home very briefly in the airport just to let the fam know I'm getting on the plane... but I don't know. This last week has been crazy. It's been even more time warpish than the rest of the time here. I can't tell if it's gon super slow or super fast. I'm going to be surprised if I sleep tonight.

 

I'm excited to go to San Antonio. I know that I have been called by a prophet of God to be a witness of His truth, and I feel geat joy every morning when I put the Savior's name over my heart.  I am going to boldly proclaim the Gospel of Salvation as i stumble over Spanish words that I can't pronounce haha.

 

Love you all, thanks for all the help and support. Next one will be from the lone star state.
