I have a testimony in Jesus Christ and in Heavenly Father. I know that they love me so much they established a plan that allows me to return to live with them. I have a testimony of the Book of Mormon and of Joseph Smith, I know Heavenly Father restored the gospel through him. The Book of Mormon is another testament of Jesus Christ and his love for me. I have a testimony of Thomas S. Monson. I know he is a living prophet and through him we receive guidance from our Father in Heaven. I know going on my mission is the right thing to do, I want to become a tool in the hands of the Lord. I know that Fort Lauderdale is the place I am supposed to go and the Lord will help me on my path. I know families can be together forever, that I will be able to see my grandmother and other relatives that have passed on when I too leave this world and return to Him.

In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Week 5 At The CCM (MTC)...

It was so funny how Tarcisio found me! I was in the Bathroom when he had come to our class and asked for me. The class started to think that I was in trouble, because the night before the guys and planned a tie-swap and they got busted by a teacher. They thought that I was going to be in trouble because of being the district leader, I hadn't stopped it. So, when he came back again and called me out to the hall, they thought I was gettin’ my talkin’ to. He just wanted to introduce himself and not distract their studying! I just started laughing. Then he took us for the little photo shoot and that was cool! Pictures below in previous post.

Your clothes look like they are drowning you, have you lost weight? My shirts were already large and I have lost 10 pounds. We eat a little healthier than I normally do and work out A LOT more than I used too, but I can´t be the slacker! The pants aren't too bad.

How has the weather been the last week with the 2 hurricanes hitting the country at the same time? We didn't hear anything about hurricanes just really bad wind!

Do you need me to send you anything to the Mission Home in FLL? We are preparing for Take Off and there are just a few things that I need… I need a few more socks, there was a laundry mix up and I lost a few pair. I kinda wash some out in the sink in between p days, but a few more socks would be nice, unless that’s something I need to buy by myself once I get to Florida. I'd like you to send any ties I still have, even if they are the silk ones the more ties the better! Also if you could post my Email and address on the blog and FaceBook that would be awesome! I also can’t figure out what type of rain jacket to buy what kinds are there? I just keep coming back to like windbreakers, is that what I should be looking for? Also I'm running out of shampoo, actually I'm out. I bought some here, but I couldn’t remember if that was something that you said you might be able to send like razors or if I needed to buy that. (Are you kidding? Does he need me to send Toilet Paper too? I think he needs to find the local Walmart.) And the missionary mall pants or at least the grey ones are starting to get like those sweater beads, I think it’s from my bag, so I would like those sweater shaver things that get rid of those and a lint roller. Also, please send my suit hanger. I also need Garret to ask the seminary office for Brother *** email. I would also like to know who his teacher is and actually ALL of his teachers. I can’t think of anything else that I am missing, but thanks for asking! I learned my lesson, I won’t ask that question again! Hahaha!

I also thought I would let you know that we were robbed today while in the temple. They told us to leave our bags on the bus. I did but took my wallet, I didn’t take the little bag that I had but the extra pesos I had in, about 850 pesos. Some guys broke in to the bus, held the driver up and rifled through our bags. They took all but 25 pesos in coins from me about like $80 USD. But nothing else, so that’s an upsight. I now will NEVER leave my bag anywhere.

It is so nice to hear that things are going good up there! It is crazy to think about the flooding at the High School, maybe I shouldn’t complain about the rain here!

This week is crazy I'm trying to cram as much study in as possible, it’s nice to hear that you’re praying that I can learn Spanish because I need it!

I love you and I am sorry I couldn’t write more, it took Extra time at the Temple today! Love you and I have a ton of pics to send you once I get to FLL! I can't wait to get there!
