Εβδομαδα 2! (Week 2)

Greece Missionaries

Για σασ,

Temple

I hope everyone had an amazing week. I would just like to say sorry about the picture they are really weird here and everything is blocked on the computers so I do not know how to really fix it so I am really sorry and i will try to get it to work this week. Also i was told I need to apologize now for my Yoda talk because that is how they talk in Greek so please forgive me if it happens.

So it is weird how time passes here cause it feels like just yesterday that I was typing an email but it also feels like it was forever ago. But we had the usually week we started class on tuesday night and then it was just everyday class until Sunday and I love Sundays so much they are the best thing because in the MTC it allows us to focus on the gospel and just really feel the spirit all day which you do everyday but none is as good as Sunday. 

This Thursday was a little different in that a group went down to Manchester city to try and teach people for a couple of hours except for us Americans going to Greece and the Americans going to Germany couldn't go because we only have prosilyting visas for our missions and everyone else was able to go so the MTC felt pretty empty on Thursday morning except it was also good for us because we were able to get in some extra language study and personal study. Than we got to go to the temple on Friday which was cool because than friday morning was just like an extension of p-day but it was because the temple is closing in two weeks because of the British Pagent that they do here they are just getting the temple ready for so many people to come. Also another cool thing is that all of the missionaries here get to be in the pagent we are singing at the end and also Elder Holland is going to be here so that is pretty cool hopefully he will stop by so we can have an actual devotional here instead of watching all of the devos from provo don't get me wrong they are still good but there is just something different about actually being in the meeting.

This week i was also able to run almost everyday Elder Howell who is going to Germany likes to run so I am able to go on runs with him and they aren't really that slow and we get to go out to the canal that is nerby and run along that it is really cool just to be able to see actual people sometimes because the MTC gets pretty small a lot of the time and you can't really get out so that has been really fun to be able to do.

This morning we went into Chorley town again and we just went shopping for everything that we needed because there are some small things that you realize during the week that these would be nice to have so it is good that we are able to go into town and buy the things that we need.

I have really been able to apreciate this week the gift of eternal Families and how much they mean not just to me but to everyone and that is one of the great messages of the gospel that we get to share.

Αγαπω,

Πρεσβετεροσ Χαλωερσον
