So, it turns out I´m no longer backup for the soprano part in that quartet, I´m doing it. Tomorrow. Wish me luck, I´ll need a lot of it. Yesterday all the missionaries in our zone went to the sector of the assistants for two hours to work. It was cool to have a little change from the routine, but I really love our sector. We still have a lot of really great people we´re working with, but not a lot of news. I´m giving a talk in Sacrament meeting tomorrow! As excited as I am for all of this, I´m looking forward to tomorrow being over. It´s almost Christmas!
So this week we´ve been focusing a lot on a talk by Elder Cordbridge called "The Fourth Missionary", I hope you can find it, because it´s amazing. It completely changed the way that I go about each day. Even though it´s written for missionaries, it´s a good lesson for everyone about how to be happy in the Gospel. The bottom line is that there´s a difference between being obedient in your actions and wishing you did not have to be, and really giving it 100% of your heart, and that only the latter will really do you any good. I started memorizing scriptures in Spanish to give my mind something to do when we´re just walking so that I don´t think too much about missing home and singing. I love my zone so much, all of my leaders are amazing examples. Elder Moncada (one of my zone leaders) bore his testimony in our last zone conference because this is his last cambio, I cried. I know, miracle of miracles, right? It was basically about who you become on your mission. A mission is an amazing thing, I love it. That´s all for now because we have to get to the stake center.
Love,
Jamie
