I think this is the beginning of Week #4

Beginning of Week #4!  Thanksgiving was last week, and Elder Russell M. Nelson and his wife came to speak to us.  We had TWO Apostoles in one week! How AWESOME is that?!  We also built injury kits to send to Sudan which was awesome too.  Then we watched 17 Miracles and it is SUCH A GOOD MOVIE. I got the package!  Thanks so much!  All the Elders in my district were super jealous.


I need to start bringing my journal to email time so I can actually remember what I did!  The days all mesh together and so it is difficult to remember what I did and when. 


We got a new "investigator".  His name is Pedro.  The teacher who is playing Pedro is Hermano Hardy.  He lives in Saratoga Springs!  But, he lives in the big development, so he isn't in our stake.  :(


My district is so awesome.  Elder Harrison (going to Sacramento, Cali) has got to be one of the most funny people I have ever met in my life.  He always has such a good outlook on life on everything.  Elder Nealy (Carlsbad) is super awesome.  He is a convert of about a year and two months.  He is from Oklahoma and his family has basically disowned him for joining the Church.  He has such a strong testimony and I am super excited he is coming to Carlsbad.  Elder Call (Fort Lauderdale, Florida) is awesome too.  He studied a whole bunch of Spanish before coming and he knows a lot.  He doesn't know a lot of vocab though.  If he and I could combine our language knowledge into one, we could probably be out in the field right now!  Elder Simmons (Carlsbad), my companion, is awesome.  He is a funny guy and always knows how to make someone laugh.  I don't really know the Hermanas in my district as well, but I know they are all AWESOME.  There are two Hermanas going to Nashville, Tennesse (where Elder Dalton is!), one going to Carlsbad and another going to Sacramento. 


We did TRC (Teaching Resource Center, I think) yesterday and last Wednesday.  It's a lot like Home Teaching.  Doing TRC is a GREAT refresher from having to do Progressing Investigators. 


My Spanish is coming along fairly well.  I am SO glad I took a few years during school.  Those few years really helped me lay a strong foundation. 


I see Gordon a lot more often now (I know where he teaches!).  But, no matter how many times I see him, it is always good to see a familiar face.  I have seen a few friends from high school here too, but they are all going English speaking :(  Elder Guthrie should have come yesterday, but I haven't found him yet. Hopefully I will soon! 


I can't think of anything else to write, and I have about ten seconds left.  If I do remember, I will write you a letter! :) 


Love, Elder Hunt


P.S.  Thanks for the BYU scores :)  It's really difficult to know what is going on in the outside world in the MTC haha
