Well it's been a crazy week. This week I packed up and got all ready to go to San Diego!
So tell me if this makes sense... So I fly from here (Mexico City) to Las Angeles which is a five hour flight for some reason ( my comp is flying to Florida and it takes him about 3.5 hours or something). Then after that an hour flight to the San Diego International Airport. Hahah I am not really sure what that's about but it's okay. December 12th is going to be long for me because I am a travel leader which basically means that I have to weigh everyone's bags and make sure they have all of their stuff together. Then I have to be at reception an hour before everyone else and I'm responsible for making sure people are there and have everything. Also I'm responsible for everyone past security. Whew!
This being my last week, I have been only speaking Spanish. That's really hard for me and I'm pretty sure that I say everything wrong but I guess not cuz the Lord helps me.
I hate the repetitiveness of the CCM but I know that it going to be so much harder in the field. I am just really excited to teach really real people! I can't wait. I feel like I can teach okay when I feel comfortable with these people. I will get over that I know haha. I have to. I am ready I feel. I am just excited to be serving the Lord. I'm sorry I know this is really repetitive.
If you haven't started the ‘Light The World’ initiative that the Church has put out, I would export yall to do it. It is really easy just to help make others' Christmas season more joyful. I hope that this will lighten your Christmas season as well.
This week as I taught my investigators here, I was able to bear strong testimony of the truths that I came here to share. It was such an amazing experience. My favorite quote this week is by Elder Holland. It says, " It takes an awful good meeting to be better than no meeting at all". Wise words. Just kidding here is a scripture that I really like Psalms 27:1. It's one of my favorites. God is with us. We walks with us every step we have ever took and every step we will take us. It is our job to walk a little bit with him in the Garden of Gethsemane and ultimately Calgary. He died for us and if we do not use this opportunity to change and become better, he dies and suffered for nothing. I know that’s not true.
Love,
Elder Stephen
