Rockin´ it in the MTC!!!


Me and Ethan!
July 31, 2012


CCM is spanish for MTC. It is Centro de Capacitacion Misional, and directly translated I think it means Center of Missionary Empowerment!!! That's so cool!! I definitely feel like we are being empowered here! All of the missionaries in our district are learning Spanish way fast!!! We had an English fast on Sunday, and we were surprised how much Spanish we could use! Aprendemos mucho sobre como necesitamos ensenar con el Espiritu Santo. Yo se que nececito el Espiritu para ayudar investigadores a sentir que el mensaje que ensenamos es verdadero.
This week we taught Marcos, our investigador que es el esposo do Mari, our first investigador. We tried to teach more with the spirit this time, and it helped!!! We talked about some of the first principles of the first lession again, this time focusing more on the investigador's needs, and asking him questions to find out what he really believes. We came out of it with a question about eternal families, and we are excited to answer it because we feel like it's something he really wants to know!!
Sorry about the confusion with my mission scripture!! I meant to put at the end of the email last week that I really want it to be Alma 36:24, but I forgot!! I realized later on that I did that, but we are only allowed to email once a week, so I had to just wait. Also, thank Bishop Otterstrom for the cinnamon rolls, and probably Sister Otterstrom too!! Ethan's last day here was on Sunday, and Scott and I took our last picture with him before he went to Cabo Ver!
My companero, Elder Jensen is the Lider de distrito nuevo!!! We are basically the best companerismo ever!!!  
God Bless Texas! I am Elder Black.  Thus I end mine epistle.
