Love Is Spoken Here

Mi Familia,

My new companionship

This week was pretty good. On Monday I had a spiritual experience with some Elders I hadn't met. I was on the first floor of our classroom building waiting for my companions to come out of the bathroom, when I heard an Elder say to an Hermana "I am a slothful servant." Two more Elders came out of the neighboring room and proceeded to say the same. This made me sad to hear, so I said "Can I give you a piece of advice?" They said sure. Then I said "If you tell yourself that you are a slothful servant then you will become a slothful servant, but if you say that you are God's greatest servant then he will make you into the greatest servant you can be." They each gave me a hug and the Elder that started said that he really needed that.

We got pranked - they moved all the couches into our dorm room

Anyway my face is doing better. I'm so glad that you came to see me on my Birthday. My zone totally surprised me in the morning. I walked into the room and there was streamers and balloons everywhere, with a sign that said Happy Birthday. It was Amazing. My teachers and District are really excited that I'm staying at the MTC, but ever since I was told I was staying I don't feel entirely focused, because I had prepared myself to go home and now I have to readjust to the way things were. I believe that I will be okay though. I hope you all have an excellent week.

My district - birthday celebration!

Love,

Elder Stevenson
