Week 4 Cage Soccer and Ultimate Tic Tac Toe



So far it has been great!  So far I have played what we call cage soccer every day!!  It is a blast!  It is like indoor soccer just inside a fence.  Since we had some free time today we made something called ultimate ultimate tic tac toe.  I do not want to play since it would probably take at least and hour!!   I will send a picture. Right after I sent an email last week Elder Christofferson came to speak to us!  When he entered the auditorium the spirit was stronger then I have ever felt it!  It was an awesome experience and he answered some of the questions I have been praying about.  One thing that really stuck out to me was that he said as you teach others the atonement you yourself will also experience it.  Those are not his exact words, but it really hit me that in order to become a missionary you must experience the things you are teaching, but most importantly you will go through the same things you teach your investigators.  I am so excited for when I go to Chile!!!!  He also talked about how we lose ourselves teaching others and when we teach others we find ourselves, but we need to serve others out of love.  Before I came on a mission I prayed to have the same love Christ does for others, and I am still praying like mad!  Yesterday Elder Oaks spoke at the Provo MTC and we got the opportunity to watch him speak live!  He talked about how we all need to KNOW the Plan of Salvation because it is fundamental to our church!  He also spoke about how in order to keep the Spirit with us always we need to partake of the sacrament regularly beforehand praying for forgiveness.  This week has been great! Elder Jacobs and I are now teaching someone named Marco Antonio [Hermano Ortiz]  he asks a ton of questions, and we can actually answer them in Spanish!!  We also had TRC this week.  TRC is when they bring in members from the city and you try to answer there questions!  It was so hard!  I could barely understand a thing, they speak so fast!!!  Other than that it is so cool to see the Lords blessings!  I am grateful for all the times he has helped me!
