Well everyone I am hear in the MTC and it is wonderful! I absolutely love it! The spirit here is like nothing I've ever felt before! My companion is Sorella Watson! She is great! and so are all the other sisters and elders in our district. Even though it can get way stressful, (Italian is a tough language!) The speakers and lessons make you feel so much better about everything! Sunday was so wonderful! We got to watch Music and the Spoken word in the morning and then sacrament meeting with our zone was wonderful as well. Every week we are all supposed to prepare a 2 to 5 minute talk in Italian and then during sacrament meeting they randomly call 2 people up to speak! I am super scared for when or if I get called on! Yikes! So far we have learned to pray and to testify in Italian, as well as basic introductory phrases! I feel like I have so far to go in learning this language! Mama Mia! My companion has taken 2 years of Italian so she is a big help! latter on that day we got to walk around the temple and it was so wonderful just to get out and breathe the air. (you all were right about the food and its negitive effects on people hear! gym time is especially smelly!) That night Sheri Dew came and spoke to us. She gave the most wonderful talk! She told us the importance of learning to focus and then gave us different ways to focus one of which was to find out who you really are and know your potential. We had a fireside with the MTC president and his wife and they gave us a lot of encouraging words as well. Tonight we get another amazing speaker, Idon't know who it is yet, but I do know that in the past they have had elder scott and elder uchtdorf. I am definitely looking foreward to it. And we get to go to the temple today! I am super excited for that!Pretty much I am just way happy! I know without a doubt that this is where I am supposed to be. I have never been promised so many amazing blessings or been in contact with so many rightous examples! I truly feel like the Lord has guided me to this point in my life and I wouldn't change a thing!
