This week seems to be like the most normal one yet. We are all learning Spanish very fast and this Monday were going to have to teach lesson one in Spanish. We practiced teaching it twice and i did pretty well i want to do way better but i definitely got my point across. One of the most spiritual experiences that i had this week was when we went to our fireside we had the byu men’s chorus sing and at the end of it they had a video with seems from the testament of Jesus and his ministry. And after the clips a lot of us were teary and we felt so good that we were here serving our savior who did so much for us so we could be happy and be freed from sin and also spiritual death. Then after the devotional we were very privileged to watch the testament and it was the best ever since i understand so much more and because i am a lot closer to my savior. When this ended all of us were teary eyed when Jesus appeared to the main father at the end and gave him his eyesight back after he saved his son it was an awesome experience as we all talked about it when we went back to our rooms. Every time I am not feeling like the spirit is as strong as i would want it i just teach and it comes back so strong. But one of the best feelings i have had this week is when i was teaching i didn’t have the fear at all of what i was going to say i felt so confident because i knew since i did my part to study and pray that the spirit was definitely there for me so i knew when ever i felt the spirit to go ahead and start talking and teach from my heart and the spirit would make sure that i had something to say this feeling is so incredible i love it. We are losing our teacher hermano cleek this week cause he is going home for Christmas right now then switching districts after new year’s so it is sad because we all love him a ton. And then we are also being left by Hermana Truman who is awesome she also switches at the years end so it’s sad but i might not be here to see that but I’ll find out hopefully soon. But on a funny note Elder Hammond again who is hilarious he was in a bathroom stall and there was an elder on both sides one from our district and the other was his companion so they play pranks so his companion says elder Hammond, and he didn’t answer him so he was thinking uh oh that’s not good then he saw elder Hammond’s feet outside the stall then he looked up and elder Hammond had filled up a 7 gallon sized garbage container full of water from the tub and poured it out over the stall on him when he was on the pot. His companion jumps up and screams and since its tile floor it title waved and hit the other elder and all the sudden (me and my roommates not knowing this happened) Elder Hammond runs into our room slams the door dives under our bed and hides behind suit cases ha ha then like two seconds later someone knocks on our door and they both ask where is Hammond! And they saw his feet and ran and attacked him it was way funny to hear them tell the story but our district is way awesome. We are way spiritual some of the most spiritual moments ever are in our testimony meetings and this one elder said we are the best friends he has ever had and we mean so much to him when he had the rock style life and could have gone big in a band then changed it all for his heavenly father cause he had a rough life. But we also have a way fun district to right before bed time it gets way funny and fun but i miss you all a ton and love you so much have an incredible Christmas can’t wait to get your letters love
Elder Christoffersen.
