The one month mark has come and I couldn't be any happier. I mean I am half way done with the MTC. I am really ready to get going into the mission field, but I know I still have a lot more learning to do. On Sunday this week we had a devotional and the BYU Men's Chorus came and sang to us. They are the largest collegiate Men's Chorus in the nation. They really had a strong spirit and I loved hearing them sing their testimonies. Look up the song baba yetu they sang it and it was one of the best songs they sang. It brought the spirit while still being a fun song. So this week again we have had lessons every day this week. The two investigator are names վահե և ժերար or vahey and jerar. Vahey is struggling with why it is a sin to live with his girlfriend and jerar is struggling with smoking. That's something that we are going to teach them next week of why we dont do those things. Oh and we learned that in Armenia everything is run by the mob there is this Sister that works at the MTC who married an Armenian who was baptized by the missionaries. Kind of a long story to explain how they met and all that, but she told us that when you have a number on your license plate it denotes what family you are from and the more numbers in succession means the higher you are in that family. Its pretty crazy because that guy that marries the Sister who works here used to be in the mafia before he was baptized at 14.
This week I am starting to realize the importance of planning. I had an interview with my teacher Brother Wood and I realized that if I plan I will be able to be more efficient in my studies, but yeah if you plan out what you are going to do each day you will get a lot more accomplished.
The MTC is flying by and I still cant believe that I have been here for a month. I know that if you continue to truth in the lord he will put in the right situations and help you through anything. The Church is true and keep praying and letting God know that you love him.
Love,
Elder Sproul
