Elder Knell leaves for Uruguay on Monday 8/14/17
Hola Como esta?? Como es su dia?
Mi semana fue muy bien. El espiritu santo es real y muy importante por todos las vidas y personas.
Well this week was by far the best week in the MTC!! I had so many experiences that im so excited to share!! I feel beyond close with the spirit and i know its real and lives if we seek for it! My testimony has grown so much over this past six weeks!! Yes can you believe its been a whole six weeks i have been out a month and a half already and i leave for Uruguay on Monday!! Its crazy!! I fly to panama city then Uruguay!! I am so excited to serve the people there and really hit the ground running!! Just have to endure a 14 hour plane ride hahah Im excited for the field!
Friday-Saturday
Friday was good. My companion is either super awesome or I want to kill hahha but other days is good! its teaching me a lot to have patience and look for the good in each day. Saturday we taught kids!!! If you havnt seen the "Lion" go see it! i'm teaching kids and people that look just like the people in that movie! one kid was about five years old it is so amazing to share a quick message with these kids. the kid was tiny and he was so scared of a 6 5 white guy hahha but I was able to make him smile and laugh a little bit! it was pretty cool! Spanish is coming along! We played ultimate frisbee for my comp and it was actually fun hahaha good to get running again!
Sunday-Monday
Sunday was the best day ever! I bore my testimony in Spanish and it was amazing to feel the spirit in the room! As soon as I sat down I felt the spirit so strong.. my dad will make fun of me for this but I started to cry. The spirit hit me like a truck! It was amazing and I needed to feel it that day so bad! I read in ether 12:27 How weak things will become strong! I KNOW I can do this through Christ that strengthens me. later that day I watched a video it was the best thing to watch a video hahaha but it was about Joseph Smith and his life. I started thinking how is this church not true????? Why would he suffer so much if he didnt believe with all his heart it was true! I know this is the true church and im supposed to be here where I am! Then I got thinking why would God let him suffer so much! so i read this.. D and C 121:7 might be one of my favs!! Talks about how our afflictions will be but a small moment!! I know this is hard but its a small moment in our lives! whatever we are going through we can get through it!! I was able to fast all day! I have the biggest testimony of fasting and the power it brings!! Lastly I had the opportunity to give two blessings to sisters in my district! They were both struggling with a lot of personal issues and a lot of stuff they needed desperately to hear from our heavenly father! I know that they needed a blessing but I also know that i needed to give them one! They chose me and I know heavenly father knew I needed the chance to exercise my priesthood! I got to talk through the spirit and it was the best thing ever!! the spirit was so strong and once i finished they began to cry. They feel a lot better and I know i was talking by the spirit! it was so amazing!!
Tuesday-Wednesday
I got my sticker to resemble my last week it was so awesome haha its something everyone here like wants more than anything its pretty funny! Then I got flight plans!! Its so crazy I leave into the field so soon!! I got my filtered water bottle and then I realized seeing that, that it just got real hahah no water except in that thing for two years lets go hahaha then I thought about the souvenirs i will bring back!! so excited hahah I also played ball for real cuz I was tired of people thinking they can and want play me in one on one so we played a 5 on 5 game! I shot the ball so well! no joke 15 for 15 and I dunked it! its awesome haha my team killed!! I shot 3s and I had the habit at pointing to someone when I shoot so it was pretty funny cuz the person wasnt there to point back. Well my next email I will be in Uruguay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
