1st Time Knocking Doors

HELLO EVERYBODY..

So an update on this week of my life... ya that doesn´t really roll off the tongue but it has been a super good week. ¡i just study the lessons for now out of preach my gospel and am loving it!! i have got a crazy amount of scriptures for the whole first and second lessons. i started yesterday on the third lesson. since i got to the MTC my hand writing has gotten progressively smaller, and i just keep laughing because the smaller i write the nicer it looks. so on Friday of last week we had a TRC where we practice teaching an investigator and do all that kind of stuff. down here the whole class is watching you then they tell you what you did wrong and what questions you could have asked... anyway now that the brief description is done.. we were teaching this guy and i was understanding everything he was saying at the time and he was like ya i am catholic and some of the things dont make sense and we asked him what didnt make sense and he shrugged off the question and we talked to him about a ton of scriptures and right as the teacher was about to call time i had him read i think its ephesians 1:10 but i´m not sure... it was the scripture in the bible that says that the true church will be restored to the earth and then i came out with the question,,, if the bible says the true church would be restored to the earth then wouldn´t it need to be lost first? and he was like uh hmm uh hmm uhhhhhhhhhh and he didnt know what to say because as the investigator he couldnt think of a good response to that. and the class had no errors for us and my teacher stepped up and he was like i really like elder farrs question there at the end.. and i was like of course you did it was awesome!! (I forgot to mention i did all of this in A DIFFERENT LANGUAGE!!!) also this week apparently we past the one month mark which is cool i guess right... 23 to go.. So i bet you think the cool part of the story is already over but wait........ there is more..... the very next day we went out for realzy tracting at real human beings doors and it was crazy.. for the record i understood a lot less out there then i did in the mtc. which was kinda lame but we got into three houses in the day and that was also an experience and those three people said they would go to church and i think one could have but i doubt the other two did. but i was mostly there to bear my testimony because a lot of the people talk with crazy wierd voices and i just cant follow what they are saying. but it was a super crazy experience actually leaving the mtc to go and knock on real doors and getting turned away like all the time.
so me and my buddies have just been hanging out down here doing our work and we havent even noticed what the date is. this just in... it is December.. crazy i know. so in honor of the season i would like to put a couple of my favorite lines on here.. "tis the season to be merry"..."oh thats my name"... or "why is the floor all wet todd.""i Dont know Margo" "its bigger than you expected?.... its a one month membership to the jelly of the month club" "Dang it bethany he guessed it" "may we blink" .... anyway thats all for now i think..
oh just kidding so this week was a milestone week not because the one month thing but because i found a way to get my diet coke´s cold! i make to loops around the air conditioning turn it on to super cold while we are gone and come back into the room with frost on my diet coke bottle hanging from the cieling it was no joke a miracle and i have now done it multiple times and it works great.
Also i just want to say that i know the spirit is working with me it is helping me learn the language and teach people. i love it out here and i know that i am where i need to be. i know that Christ died for us and that through his atonement we can all be saved. i have been studying a lot of scriptures and it is crazy how many scriptures go with any topic. i am happy to be here and i would feel super selfish if i had not come out here because this is my tithing of the first 20 years of my life and i know that is is where i need to be to learn and grow.. last thing the food here all tastes the same.which is pretty wierd because i dont like it when everything tastes the same...
