Hey Y«all!
So the flight over I sat in between two latino women and it was so fun trying to communicate with them. It was a ton of spanglish. but i slept a lot on the plane. we got here and had a lot of meetings teaching us all the rules.
my companion is elder pappin. he's from draper. i already love him so much. he has an awesome personality and we get along really well. we are both soo excited to get back to the states.
the second day we met our district president and he interviewed all of us. then he called me as the District Leader!! i was so happy to accept and it was pretty rough at first because i had to lead all the meetings in spanish. but now im just having a ton of fun. we've been in non stop classes since we got here and i have felt like i have learned a ton of spanish. we have already taught an "investigator" 4 times and each time we take less and less notes. i can really see the gift of togues working as we teach. we've already committed her to baptism, which was yesterday. it was really cool because i was able to invite her with the baptismal invitation fully memorized. the language is fun but also a struggle. we have to memorize 300 words, 40 phrases, and 4 different invitations or important scriptures by next monday.
Anyways, im loving it here. but i also cant wait till im back in the states. because i feel like im not quite seving the lord yet. its beautiful inside the mtc. there is 90 acres and most of it is grass and fields to play sports in our gym time. it rains soo much here! i have to constantly have my umbrella with me. the food here is pretty good but i cant wait to eat american food again.
i know this is were im supposed to be.
i love you all
Elder Williams
