Wow Ive been out on the mish for a month now its crazy how fast time flies. So we were supposed to go proselyting last saturday but we did something diffferent instead haha. Elder Cook came to the Lima CCM and talked to us!! It was super awesome, everyone got to shake his hand casue there are only like 100 missionaries in the CCM. So we'll get to go proselyting this Saturday instead! Besides that not too much has happened! My spanish is improving ever so slowly, but its coming! The days are starting to speed up too now. The CCM kind of feels like a prison, but in less than 2 weeks Im out of here! Thats crazy to think about how close it is but Im super pumped to finally be out in the field and teaching real investigators! So i dont think this is normal for most MTCs but i get to see and talk to the MTC president everyday. He is super chill and I dont think the missionaries in Provo really get to see that! Well I dont have much else to say, just a spiritual thought. One thing i learned this week from one of our devotionals is about our service to the Lord and becoming more Christlike. Our mission success doesnt come from how many baptisms we get but by how obedient and faithful we are so that we can have the Holy Ghost with us always! The Holy Ghost is the real teacher and we are the instruments! I hope I can continue to try to be more like the Savior every day and do the Lord's will, not mine! Love and miss you all!!
