Immer Schneller: Hastening the Work: Spiritual moments plus shenanigans make for a good week!

HELLLLOOOO from the MTC! so, first things first...

I only got one email this week! haha where are you guys! :) I enjoy your mail as much as you enjoy mine! Second, I NEED MY IPOD SHUFFLE, please send it with all the gospel music we have. I'm dying without my music. Ugh... but! On a missionary note! Bruder Charchighidim AND Frederic have committed to coming to church this Sunday! It was a big choice for Frederic, and Bruder Charchighidim will be attending with his wife (who is a member already). I'm so excited for them to have this experience. Bruder Charchighidim has learned a lot about the Atonement and is trying to revitalize his faith in the Savior. He's coming along so quickly.

This last Sunday we were blessed to be part of the Provo City Center Temple dedication. It was a Tabernacle that was built by pioneer ancestors, recently it suffered a fire and the people who lived in the area didn't want to see it torn down, so the First Presidency of the Church turned it into a temple! We were able to do the hosanna shout and welcome the Lord into the temple, the same day (about 2000 years ago) that the people of Jerusalem welcomed Jesus. I didn't know, but was told, that some Pharisees told Jesus to command the people to stop and he said okay, but if they stop the stones themselves with open and sing hosanna. (Luke 19:39-40) So that's an awesome Easter story.

(Elder Fisher didn't take time to explain the photos below. The Provo Tabernacle on fire, a miraculous painting of Christ removed from the building by firemen, the Tabernacle rebuilt as the 150th Temple on the earth today. Followers of Jesus Christ make covenants with the Lord, and are sealed together in marriage for time and all eternity inside.)

Update on my wrist! So, my cyst doesn't alter my range of motion or push against anything so I'm supposed to just watch it and make sure it doesn't get any bigger. So, no worries!

I'm lifting weights with Elder Roemer and running with Elder Warner and Elder Bollwinkle. We did about three miles today, so my ankles are sore.

But here's the real Kicker of this week!!!

The Story of Charmin Ultra.

ULTIMATE STORY TIME!

Prologue:

The food at the MTC is vicious to your insides, and one of our Elders, Elder Jesse Knight, had said that he would do anything for some Charmin Ultra soft. So, in some free time, Elder Roemer hopped on Amazon and sent a package.

It's set to arrive on Wednesday, so all day we're giggling waiting for him to receive his mail, but it never came... Thursday rolls around and we're waiting for our late package to reach our friend when a note pops up on the computer.

"Elder Knight please come the the front office." He was so scared and we guessed that it was because of his package. So, he leaves for a little while and then returns with a tomato red face...

He had been called up to the front office to speak with Brother Jesse Knight, the Director of Operations here at the MTC... Bro. Knight had received the package due to a mix up in the mail room. So, the Head Honcho opens this package, sees the six pack of Charmin Ultra Soft, and reads the accompanying note

"Dont let the MTC food wreck you. -Rachel" (Rachel is Elder Roemers nick name) but... we didn't know until after the whole incident that Brother Jesse Knight had just returned form Europe with his daughter in law... Rachel. So, he called her and she had no idea what the package was! Haha, so they looked up the true recipient of the Package and called him up to return it. Haha!

So life here is great! Lots of work is getting done and we're having a blast doing it! I love you all! Thank you for supporting me while I serve the Lord!
