Buenos Dias a todos las personas!! My second P-day in the MTC and I seriously love it. I'm learning spanish so fast and the spirit here is absolutely so strong. I can't even begin to tell you how much I love my district. Always joking around and playing basketball during our work out time. Everyone always comes into my room and hangs out while we study and we just talk about our lives before and sometimes what we want of our lives to come. Our bond is already so strong and it definitely makes for such a stronger district!
I love all my teachers and they are all super strong in the spirit and amazing at teaching us. They are all seriously in awe at how fast we are learning spanish. The days are going so much faster and its honestly starting to scare me. I don't want to blink because I fear that if i do, itll all be over just like that.
But anyways, how bout some stories.
I've got two things to share this week. Fresh linens day, and zone gift exchange. All things we came up with to make this all so much more exciting. Alright, the story of fresh linens day. Three weeks before I came in to the MTC, an odd, shy, Elder Moulton had taken my place. He didn't say much for the first week he was here. I don't blame him, we are all a little shy at first. Every wednesday morning from 6:30 am to 7:30 am, we get to go downstairs and exchange our bed sheets. The first one that Elder Moulton was here, He woke up at 6:30, and ran down the halls screaming "IIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTSSSS FRESH LINENS DAAAAAAY" Basically the first thing that these elders have heard from him is him screaming that hahaha!! So know we celebrate fresh linens day, all while screaming "IIITTTSS FRESH LINENS DAYYYY" all throughout the halls. But what is a true holiday if you don't celebrate the day before. Entonces we also celebrate Linens Day Eve! We have what we call the linens day passover, where you take your sheet and drape it in front of your door to your room so that you might be blessed with fresh sheets in the morning. I'll send you a picture next week. It is really something to see.
Zone gift exchange. Kind of like a white elephant. We would draw a name from a box and whoever we got, we had to give them something real nice! But the catch is, you have to have that present on you all Pday or you have to vacuum the persons room who gave it to you. Most of these presents were, of course, tide pods. I happily gave my new Elder Davis, who is serving a spanish speaking mission, a Portugeese hymn book. I received a nice dirty sock that contains a spoon. But the present that just really got everyone, someone definitely gave a gatoraide bottle full of pee. Man this place is really something and I love it so much.
Shout out to Elder Moulton and may we all prosper on linens day.
Shout out to the Baumans for my bountiful harvest of gatoraides and wheat thins.
Also, for real now, I heard that there has been an earthquake in ecuador. I don't know how serious or any details, but please join me in prayer for these amazing people that the lord is currently preparing to receive the gospel. I love them all already and I can't wait for my opportunity to get over there and aide them with anything they might need.
Until next week!
Elder Campbell
