It is incredible what you can learn in such a short amount of time. The gift of tongues is so real.
I
am loving my mission so far. Things are going to change once I leave
the MTC, and that will be a good thing. I am grateful for the
experiences and challenges I have had so far. If the MTC had a hall of
fame, my district would be on it for sure. Our branch president said he
had never seen a district go through so many changes in all his years at
the MTC. And that was before all the schedule goofs and the classroom
changes and the last development. I won't go into all the oddities and
irregular changes that have happened during these past six weeks,
because that would take a while. But now we are an all-hermana district.
The elders got transferred to another branch. So that's new and weird.
We
got our flight plans last night. We head to Nicaragua on the first of
Feb. We only have nine days left! It's crazy. I am so excited. There are
so many things I am learning and doing, and I am excited to continue to
grow. I'll have to send pictures next week, since that will be my last
p-day in the MTC.
Everything is too perfectly
coordinated and organized to work if the church was not true. The way
everything falls into place and works out is miraculous. It is wonderful
to be a missionary and see the gospel work in people's life. It is
wonderful to be able to feel the spirit that is here. If you think how
the spirit is invited when you invite missionaries into your home, just
think how crazy it is to be around over a thousand missionaries every
day. But I am ready to head to the field, because that is why I am here
on a mission. I have learned what I need to learn, and am lucky enough
to get an extra week to practice conjugating. I am excited to be out and
helping people realize how much the restored Gospel of Jesus Christ
will bless their lives. I know that Jesus Christ is our Savior. He is
aware of us, He loves us, and He is always there for us. I would not
want to be anywhere else right now, because I know this is the perfect
thing for me to be doing. It feels like nothing I have ever done has
been as important as what I am doing right now. This is kind of the most
important work ever, and it is wonderful that Heavenly Father trusts us
enough to be missionaries.
I love you all,
-Hermana Fackrell
