Sunday was probably one of the best days here yet. Our Sunday starts like any other day, up at 6:30 we have to be in our classroom at 7:00 a.m. just like any other day. Then we had breakfast and at 8:00 sacrament meeting. The reason this meeting was so special was because the wife of branch counselor brought her four grandsons with her. They aged from 3-8. And she started off her talk by having them sing, "I hope they call me on a mission" so cool to hear them sing that because it took me back to when I would say that, and it kicked me a little bit because i am on a mission. But then we have a couple other meetings and study time and lunch but the last thing of the night is a fireside where we all go to the gym and have a one hour conference. this time they did it a little different because they wanted to sing. So they had microphones and a couple missionary's said their favorite song and we has a large group would sing one verse. So that was cool but after half an hour they cut it off. Then they instructed us on how we could sing Called to serve, where we would start at whisper and by end really loud. anyway that's about the fifth time we have sang it but it was definitely the coolest. Then they said the closing prayer and after we all sang Army's of Helaman, which was the first time we had sang that song and it was so COOL (yes i know i am using cool a lot). Then after that we get to watch a church movie every sunday and we watched legacy, which can be really funny but it was good. So that is how Sunday went it was good.
Tonight when we have our devotional we are supposed to have an apostle since we haven't had one come yet, (we think they forgot about us because they are supposed to have one come every three weeks) but other than that things are good here in "Spritual Prison". Yea its a joke with us missionary's because although we are learning spiritual we still feel like we are in prison, something like that.

Now for the most frustrating thing about the MTC:
When you see so many people that have come into the MTC after you but leave before you. This first started when a district of native spanish speakers came in the same day as us and we became pretty good friends. But since they already know spanish they were only here for three weeks. And i hope i have my visa.
