Alrighty everybody, we're back!
After a little less than a week in my new area... everything is chaos. :P I received the assignment to manage the Facebook Page for the mission. So I'm now doing that, on top of training, on top of being a District Leader, on top of whitewashing an area. I've got a bit of a full plate, you could say. So forgive me if this email is a bit short. Also, no pictures, because yeah. :/
Although this week has been pretty crazy, it's also been full of cool experiences! We were able to find two new people to teach last week, and we've got a great ward here, they're very supportive, and have helped out a lot with getting to know the area, who we can go visit, stuff like that. Hopefully we'll be settled in real soon.
To wrap things up, I haven't shared a spiritual thought in a while! (I know, I'm a terrible missionary ;) The other day, while going over Preach My Gospel to plan companionship study, I was reading a part in Chapter 10, about Teaching for Understanding. And the thought struck me that taking time to truly understand the Gospel is quite probably one of the most essential things that we can do. But how, exactly, do we come to understand? Well, obviously, we need to study. But also, we need to experience it! So what can you do to experience the Gospel? Go think about it. That's your homework this week.
Anyway, thats all out of me. See you next week!

P.S. You can start the countdown now, there's only ten more of these emails coming!
