Sziastok Everyone!!!!
How is everyone doing? I hope everyone is doing
just great, I know I have been. But here is the weird information for this
week. So along with moving to main campus on Monday, I have also received a new
mail box that I will be using for the next week and a half.
Nichols Elder
Nov 11 Hun-Bud
2023 N. 900 E. Unit 306
Provo, UT 84602
I would love to receive letters and
stuff from you all. All the stuff that was sent to my old address will
hopefully be forwarded here. So that is why I have not written everyone a whole
lot this week. I will try to use some of my time today to write back to
everyone. So... How to put this. Main campus is alright. Yup, that's all I have
to say about this campus. That, and the keyboard on this computer is so messed
up. The shift key is hard as a rock, so if I have an accidental lowercase
somewhere, please forgive me.
But, last weeks TRC, well it was just an
interesting one to say the least. So Neni and Marcus showed up again(Neni is
grandma) and we taught them. We had a super good conversation with them at the
beginning, everyone was laughing and participating. Then we said an opening
prayer and started going into the revelation through church doctrine. So we
asked Marcus how he felt about that on his mission. We heard what we expected
but it was neat to hear about his experiences in Hungary. Then we heard from
Neni. And she, no joke, spoke for the next 40 minutes in Hungarian about her
conversion story. It was so unneeded but it's whatever. It was cool to hear
about, minus the part we were supposed to be practicing teaching not listening.
But I liked it!!! The weekend went well, Sunday was our last real day at the
West Campus. It was sad saying goodbye to Parker Howell, and Jared Barton. But
I'll see them in two I guess. Then all of our food that we had. Which was a ton
I might add, we gave to Parker and his companions. They basically love us now:)
So main campus. The rooms are smaller
than a whole apartment obviously!!! But, we are making do with what we have.
Now trying to run around and figure stuff out is the fun part. Like today
for instance. Today is the start of my consecration week with my companions.
And it is killing me already. I think it is quite funny how Vanem Sorensen
doesn't understand us though and we're talking up a storm. But I think he will
get irritated with us quite soon. He made a rule not to speak any English with
each other. NONE. So, it is going ok right now. Cathcart Elder and I are
enjoying this though. We just talk all the time. Minus right now, when I
promise you this is the quietest time of the whole week. When all you hear are
computers and keyboards just trying to fly at the speed of light while the
operators(us) try to type as fast as we can. hahahaha, I think it is funny.
Spiritual Experiences this week. Good
question. I think that this week was so good!! I felt the spirit quite a bit,
but Tuesday night we had our devotional, sang "Be Still My Soul" in
choir and then listened to Carlos A. Godoy. He shared his conversion story with
us and it was so funny!! He kept us laughing so much, he just made you want to
sit forward in your seat and pay attention. And he kept it at a level that the
missionaries could understand. I got a lot out of that talk. We received new
missionaries last night. It was definitely interesting, because I was told by
one of my comps that I talk too much. Which isn't hard to believe because I like
talking to people. So naturally I sat there, and tried not to do too much. But
everyone just sat there!! I was like "What the Crap!!!!!" The MTC should be fun, so I made it fun. We got talking, and talking, and laughing. But
when the time was running out, I still had time to bear testimony and get
serious. I feel like even though I did not stay quiet like I was told to do so,
I learned a lesson. Sometimes, I need to be more focused, and now that I am trying
to do that, I am grateful that Elder said that.
I am grateful for all of you, I pray for
you. I miss you. I have one more P-Day in the MTC. So I am naturally excited
for that. Miss you all, love you.
Oh, read the Book of Mormon. It is TRUE. I bear simple
testimony to you that if you will apply it and really use it. It will guide
you.
