What is up family?? This week was amazing I have some great experiences to share! First off, fast Sunday was soooo long
holy cow I thought i was going to die of hunger but it was all made up for
because we had an amazing devotional that night. Jenny Oaks Baker who is the
Daughter of Dallin H Oaks came and she is an amazing violinist!! She was kinda
prideful and she wasn't the greatest speaker but man the music was amazing!! After that the Whole mtc was required to listen to the talk The Character of
Christ by Elder Bednar which is an amazing talk so after that Elder Bednar
walks in with his wife and everyone was going crazy!!!! It was so awesome they
were just like we have a surprise for all of you Elder Bednar will be walking
in any moment!!! He did a Question and Answer for about an hour and a half and
we didn't get back to our residency till about 10:15 it was awesome! His answers
were so perfect! but the best part had to be his testimony at the end it was so
amazing i cant put it into words!!
The Czech is coming slowly but surely Elder
Fuqua and I had a great lesson on Monday we taught our investigator who is
actually our teacher but you still get that same spirit in those lessons so we
started the plan of salvation with him and taught all the up till the atonement
so we just finished the fall with him! And the thing about those lesson is that
we know enough Czech to understand what he is saying but struggle on replying
but they still go really good and I actually answered some of his questions
really well! Man, the Days are long and I've never had so many headaches but I love it and love the work!
Last night we worked the tours from 5:30 to 9 it
was packed with a lot of youth groups doing tours for mutual! Our section was so awesome we
were at the end and got hang out with them then we would fill them up into a
zone room and share a quick testimony then share a video about the MTc and
Missionary work! It was such a great experience and was so nice to actually
talk to real people and we got to work on our Czech because they would want us
to say stuff in Czech it was so cool! You guys can all probably look up the
video on lds.org or something I highly recommend it
and you get a little look at the new buildings and what is new!!
Also my
spiritual experience for the week came during personnel study I have never had
a chapter of scripture hit me so hard!! I was reading Alma Chapter 34 and I challenge everyone to read it this week! It just talks about how the Atonement
is essential to the plan of salvation and that Jesus is the Christ man it is a
powerful chapter! Also this week I finished Alma woohooo personal study is the
best because the last 15-20 mins i get to just the Book of Mormon which is the
best! that's about all that happened this week! I love you all and hope you
have a great week!
Love, Elder Heywood
