Week 5 - El Ultimo Semana!

Hello again everyone!

Thank you for all the emails!  I love reading them!  So again not a whole lot happened this week because it's still the same.. However, next week I will be in Cusco so that will be different!!

I will start out with saying that this week i broke off a bathroom stall door....  It was actually pretty funny.  All i did was shut it and it broke off.  Didn't mean to do it!  my companion was laughing pretty hard though.

Yesterday we had a special devotional from Elder Scott.  He did a good job on his talk.  He kind of talked about our service as a missionary.  And because of that devotional we didn't have afternoon classes so we had tons of personal study time.. it was crazy!

I don't know if this was this week, but we watched a devotional from Elder Holland.  He always has something good to say. His talks are so powerful i don't know how you cannot feel the spirit when you are listening.  He talked about our missions not being easy.  He said a lot of things that stuck out to me but one thing that I won't forget is that our missions are as close to real life as we are ever going to get.  He also went on to say that after our missions we cannot go back to live our old lives; there is no old life.  It's like we are born again.  Now obviously things are going to change like I will be able to watch movies and listen to music and all that but you get the point.

So there is an elder here that is 100% Navajo Indian.  He lives on the reservation down in Page!   He said that he probably lives 5 minutes from the Walmart there.  His name is Elder Secody.  He is cool i like him.

Yesterday during our physical activity we played.... SOCCER!  could have guessed huh?  But it was way fun.  One of the teachers kicked out the Hermanas because we were like playing for real. We did 3 teams, first to 2 goals, or seven minutes.  It felt like open gym.  I didn't want to go off so I was doing everything i could to keep us on.  And we stayed on the whole time until the very end we lost.. But time was up anyways!  It was way fun!


Elder Augat and his companion, Elder Martin.
