Hello,
I have one more week
here at the MTC and then I'll be on my way to the place I've dreamed about
going to since I was a kid. Anyways this week was a lot of fun and was filled
with so much joy and excitement. First, on Wednesday we got the opportunity to
host for the THIRD time which is a lot. It turns out we weren't actually
supposed to host but the hosting job was for another district in our zone lol.
On Thursday we taught one of our investigators here at the MTC and it was our
last time teaching her. It was kinda sad to stop teaching her because she
really enjoyed our lessons and she was by far my favorite investigator. We
ended up singing let the holy spirit guide, and we bore our testimonies of how
if she lets the spirit guide her in her life she has no need to be of anything
that may come in the future!
Well Friday was by far
my favorite day here at the MTC for multiple reasons!
First, during my class
we got our new name tags that are in straight thai which is honestly the
coolest thing ever.
Second, I got my
travel plans and my entire district freaked out. We will be leaving the MTC at
3:45am on Monday and will be on planes for pretty much the next two days until
we land in Bangkok at 11:30 on Tuesday night. Bangkok is like 12 or 13 hours
ahead so that's another reason why it'll take like 2 days. I haven't stopped
thinking about Thailand this week since then and how sweet of an experience
this will be.
To top it off, we
ended Friday with a Skype TRC where we Skype a member in Thailand and just talk
with them and give them a short lesson. I'm so ready to go and I know
regardless of how good I think I am at Thai, I'm going to get wrecked.
This week I have made
goals to work as hard as I did the first week when I was here. I was able to
finish the first book of Nephi in Thai on Saturday which was pretty cool. I
love reading the book of Mormon in Thai and I'm getting faster and faster each
day at reading. Another goal I had this week was to learn 75 words a day which
is a grind but its achievable if I ask for help from God and Jesus
Christ.
This is my last week
here before I leave so if anyone has got any advice or words of wisdom before I
head out, that would be greatly appreciated. I love you all and your great
support for me.
ผมหวังทุกคนมีอาทิตย์ที่ดี. ผมรู้ว่าพระผู้เป็นเจ้าอยากให้คุณมีความสึกไนชีวิตของคุณ. ผมรักคุณด้วยแต่ว่าผมพร้อมไปที่ประเทศไทยอีกไม่นาน.
(I hope everyone has a
good week. I know that God wants you to be happy in your lives. I love you all
but I'm ready to go to Thailand soon.)
I'm going to Bangkok, Thailand |
Our district |
Love
Elder Lowe
