Another week, can´t really come up with a good caption at this point

Barber Shop Quartet: So about lastttt Sunday or something, we found out that me and three other people in my district who also liked to sing and we talked about doing a barber shop quartet because it worked out pretty well with the parts that we like to sing and that we have sung for a couple years. Its Elder Marchant on Lead, Perry on Tenor, Christensen on Baritone, and me and Bass. We found that we can perform a piece for devotionals and stuff so we are going to sing Brightly Beams our Fathers Mercy in spanish and we are either going to do it this Sunday or next Sunday before a conference session. 


Sunday Devotionals: So on Sunday we didn´t watch a video, as in a movie, but during the day we watched two talks that were past MTC Broadcasts\Devotionals. One was by Elder Bednar  that was given one year on Christmas (to help everyone reading this to watch it somehow because its awesome) on the natural man and the Character of Christ. It was one of the best talks i´ve ever heard. Then that night we listened to Elder Holland give a talk on Jan 15, 2011 at the MTC in provo and boy that beat the first one. Elder Holland talked about the reason Preach My Gospel was created and how the missionary needs to be converted and that the lessons are by the spirit and honestly, way too many points in about an hour talk to write about so just watch them. They are spectacular, no matter who you are. 

Tuesday Devotional: That next tuesday we had a devotional where Elder Nicolás Castañeda spoke. He is a seventy and is the director of the CCM. for the start of the devotional we, the choir, sang Señor, yo necesito, which was awesomeeeee, and then his wife bore testimony. Then Elder Castañeda spoke. He talked about this being Christ´s mission. I´m not out here for me, for my family, for my friends, or for anyone ellse but the Lord. For me to be blessed throughout my life and on my mission i must feel and give the love of God to his Children. When we love, we are filled with Light. Matt 5. we have to be able to share that light to touch the hearts of others and glorify our Father in Heaven. And fina,ly is to feel his Spirit. Go to the temple and be worthy to have the constant companionship of the Holy Ghost. good will look more Beautiful and Temptation will look more Horrific. It was an amazing talk. 

Tienda: So apparently, as my workout savvy companion came to tell me (and as i have never had the problem of knowing), if i am to workout and play soccer 6 days a week, i cannot survive on two pairs of shorts and two shirts alone, because of reasons and stuff. So i turned in twenty dollars and got in exchange for that 360 pesos. I used this to buy a shirt, a lot of food, a mini Predicar Mi Evangelio, and some tide pods for laundry. Also when i get back to the US im going to make a wise investment for during and after my mission and get soccer cleets and goalie gloves. 

Pics: The single pics are with the zone leaders before they left, Elder Bennet and Elder Bettilyon, who were awesome people, and then there are two District pics.
