escribia me. yo mucho feliz! yo tengo much amo por la CCM. (MTC) esta
muy fun and yo aprender mucho! usted muy correcto cuando dicho "drinking
from a fire hose" pero yo se que esta mi mision. como fue su semana? yo
tengo muchas cosas ..... bleh (Hello! How are you? Thank you for writing me. I am happy. I have a
lot of love for the MTC. It is very fun and I am learning a lot. You
are right when you said "drinking from a fire hose" but I know that this
is my mission. How did your week go? I have a lot of things ... bleh) no more spanish it is too early hahaha. I
have a lot of stuff to do as a Zone Leader. Hmmm.. Sundays I have
leadership meetings and trainings all day and when a new district comes
in I get to do all the orientation their first couple days. Elder Barnes
and I that is. We actually had a new district las week and this week so
right now there's 4 in our zone (about 40 elders and 4 sisters). Every
night I have to give them all a hug good night. (except the hermanas (sisters) of
course) when i say have to, I mean I GET to cuz it's so much fun and so
amazing! Last night my ribs hurt though lol I gotta tell them all to
stop squeezing so hard :) where did I get my love for people?? man I am
not trying to brag but everyone says they just love getting hugs from me
haha I'm practically hugging all day. and I've been complimented
numerous times by the older districts and the branch preisdency on my
love for people. but anyway also being a zone leader we lead the
meetings and stuff I dunno. It's not too big a deal but a lot of fun!
So one thing I've forgotten to mention before is that
I've been singing in the Choir here... haha. It's so much fun! You feel
the spirit in such a different, but powerful way in music that you can't
in any other way. I'm really grateful for that oppourtunity. I wish I
could still play the piano though!
...
one of the branch presidency. well actually district presidency. in the
MTC it goes Mission Presidency->District Presidency->Branch
Presidency->ZL's->DL's. anyway he started talking about an
experience he had with another missionary and himself on his mission,
which I won't mention cuz I'll probably cry if i do, but it just made me
so sooooo GRATEFUL for everything that you have done for me mom. I
wasn't really crying over homesickness, just gratitude.
...
well I'm pretty much out of time. Dad, I don't feel like writing
one for the blog this week so if you wanna take bits and peices from
this email and put it on there that would be great. sorry haha.
love you all!
Elder Hicken
