20 More Days

So this last week was pretty boring here at the good ol' MTC. My
french is progressing pretty slow to the point where I have no idea if
it is getting better and I am getting pretty sick of being here but
hey I am also grateful for 3 more weeks of trying to improve my
french.

So we finally got one of are investigators to commit to baptism and
the other one is right on the edge so hopefully we get that done with.
The downside is now  we are at the point where we teach about the
commandments and what not and I am not looking forward to that but I
guess its better to teach it here and get better than to try and teach
it in the field for the first time. We will see how that goes.

So I gave up on basketball during gym because we got a bunch of new
people in our gym time so its hard to get into a basketball game but
on the upside I switched to foursquare and am actually quite good at
it. Its been the highlight of this week pretty much.

So this Sunday we had a Sunday night Fireside as always and Elder
Ballard came and spoke to us about teaching with the spirit it was
pretty great stuff. Also Elder David Archelleta sang a hymn and did
one verse in Spanish. He did a good job. The other day however he was
standing next to me cause his comp was talking to someone in our
district and this other random kid tried to get a picture of him. He
like got all weird and I said "that must be pretty annoying has it
happened a lot" and he looked at me like he was scared of his own
shadow and said like two words. Interesting guy... the upside to that
story is I am probably in some random pictures with David Archeletta
so yup pretty funny stuff.

Tomorrow we get new Frenchies in our zone. I am kinda excited and
kinda not just because I like having a close nit zone but this also
means that we get some new people to talk to and hang out with. should
be fun.

Well that's pretty much in for the week. Hope you all are well!

Love, Elder Lerdahl
