This week was fantastic! Last Wednesday,
Elder Christofferson of the 12 came down here and spoke to us! It was
incredible!! And down here, after every devotional of any kind, a
couple districts get together and we talk about our thoughts on the
devotional and the feelings and impressions we had. Those "after
devotional talks" are some of the most spiritual experiences we have
here. The spirit is so strong every time.

My
companion and I joined the Choir this week with a few other
companionships! My companion was in the AF Chamber Choir and he is a
fantastic baritone! Also, shoutout that I saw Elder Parker Jackson sing in the Provo MTC
choir last night at the worldwide MTC broadcast with Elder Oaks!
Every day, during our gym
time, my companion and I go and play some volleyball! It is so much fun!
I'm working on my spikes. :) We also play a lot of ping-pong.
We got a new set of Latino roommates this week. They are pretty chill. They both speak English fairly well too. One of them, Elder Castro, told us his conversion story last night, and it is awesome! He is from Merida Mexico, right by Cancun. And when he was working on his papers for his mission, he met a sister missionary from Lehi! Shout out to Hermana Hoggan for giving him tips on his English!

I love being out here on
my mission. I push myself to do better each day, and know that the Lord
will reward me for my efforts. He knows us better than we know
ourselves. And he will help us when we need it most, if we ask for it
and trust in him.

A poem I've heard twice now in here is:
Come to the Edge
I can't I'll fall
Come to the Edge,
I can't I'll fall
Come to the Edge
I came, He pushed me
And I Flew
Love you all!
Hasta Proximo Semana!
Elder Greenwood :)
