DAY 19

JOSEPH SMITH IS A TRUE PROFETA!

 

 

(That awkward moment when you forgot how to spell Prophet for a second...)

I absolutely love Sundays! Today was of course fast Sunday which I thought would be a breeze like it is back home but I was Semi-Mistaken. We woke up at 6:15 to a line for showers (the only time me and E have to wait for showers is on Sundays) We got showered and got ready. We have to dress up in suits on Sundays.  I'm glad I brought one. Something also about Sundays, we have to all prepare a talk on a certain topic every week! (In Spanish) But since it was fast and testimony week, we had to only bring our testimonies and the Spirit! I walked into our small little chapel with our zone (I don't know if I've told you but our Sacrament Meeting is in Spanish, even the Sacrament Prayer!) and went and found my usual seat. I was so nervous at even the thought of sharing my testimony with even one person, let alone my whole Zone. I felt the Spirit so strongly so I decided to go up and share my Testimony and it went like this:

"Yo tengo un  testimony de esta iglesia. Yo se que el Libro de Mormon es verdadero y inspirado.  Yo se que Jose Smith es unprofeta verdadero y la iglesia de Jesu Cristo fue restaurado a traves Jose Smith. No puedo esparar ir al Republic Dominicana a yo puedo ensenar y ayudar muchas personas. Yo se que tengo un bueno distrito y ellos son buenas ejemplos para me. Yo se que Tomas S Monson es buestro Profeta hoy y el recipe las ensenanzas de Dios.  Digo estas cosas en el hombre de Jesu Cristo, Amen." (What do you think?) :)

It was so spiritual. Tonight for our devotional, we heard a bunch of musical pieces performed by Dallin H Oaks daughter! It was so good! I miss music so much but I sneak in some himnos from the computer during study time. We watched the Joseph Smith movie and I teared up. I'll never understand how evil people could do such harmful things! It's horrible! Well I love you guys so much! I missed you a ton today but I know you guys are praying for me and I can feel all your prayers! Continue to  send Dear Elders and letters. They make my days brighter! I love you and miss you all!
