Come thou fount

Yah that's our Jam right now! I love that song:D

So I absolutely love the opportunity I have to be district leader right now. honestly, I had a super spiritual experience this past friday conducting my first District meeting. That is one of my favorite things in the mission; feeling the spirit guide my words and Ideas. Along those lines, earlier this week I had one of those surreal moments where we were in a charla and I found myself saying all the correct words, but thinking in my head, ¿where are these words coming from? I love the mission, there is nothing like it. 

So this week has been a lot of walking. The bike has started to hurt Elder Neilsen's knee too, so Im kind of going paranoid and have pretty much completely rejected the idea of using them altogether.

 One cool experience came when we left with a recent RM (he had gotten back the day before from his mission in Chile and was kind of going through mission withdrawls, so we asked him if he could leave with us. Best Idea ever). I was able to learn that there is still a TON to learn. We had a charla with a reference and were able to really help bring the spirit by using better questions that helped them think and apply more. It's really interesting to see how other missions work and apply their ideas.
      
On top of that, Alvaro brought a friend to church, with whom we will begin teaching this Tuseday. I love that guy, and hope he can give up smoking soon in order to progress more in the gospel.

We also have a really good future investigator that We've been sending messages of hope too named Susana. We gave her a Book of Mormon and have been sending her verse too. She loves them and we should be having our first "charla charla" today:D

Darwin is also doing well:D

It's a really interesting adventure to be training. I honestly feel as if I am learning more of how to be a good parent every day. Though I am not sure how my future kids will be, I have discovered a lot more attributes I need to acquire to help them.

I love yall so much and wish the best to each of ya,

Love,
Elder Eliason
