2nd Week in MTC

MTC teachers

So we still only have one portuguese teacher... and its because all the people going to brazil cant get their visas and go to the brazil mtc! Ha so they are taking our portuguese teachers hahah! But Its okay we just got an english speaking teacher. So we finally have two teachers. I like the english one cause he is really helping me learn how to teach. My ffavorite thing is that we really want to focus on teaching in a way so that the investigator can build their relationship with god and not just be converted to us. He is a great teacher! Next week we will be teaching alot!

 

Teaching in Portuguese 

We taught our first time in portuguese! Scariest thing of my life... I THINK YES!! hahah jk it wasnt too bad cause we could take notes in but tommorow no notes!!!! AHHHHHHHH! The language is soooo hard for me but I am trying to be patient and work hard!

 

No flirting at the MTC

Also I think that they have mentioned to not flirt with the Elders about a million times!!! But it really needs to be said because there is alot of flirting that goes on!!! There was a lady sister Edmands that spoke to us and she was like DONT TOUCH THE ELDERS!! haha then she said but keep track of the ones that you want to touch when you get home....hahahh then she was like then go to mission farewells and TOUCH!! hahah wierd but she was a way funny lady and said some things that really helped me!!

 

Characters of Christ

Also I watched on sunday Elder Bednars Talk, "Characters of Christ" THis was the best talk I think I have ever heard in my life!!!! DO whatever you can to listen to it! It changed the way I look at my mission and everything. He talked about how Christ turns out and the naturaul man turns in. He talked about how even when the savor atoned for alll of our sins and suffered so much he turned out. He also said that the mission is not about you. He talked about having a testimony vs. true conversion. Well it was just amazing!!!! Just listen to it ;) maybe for family night!
