HAHA!!! The language and spiritual moment!!

So this week was a pretty normal week. The only difference was we leave on Monday to the Manila MTC for 2 weeks!!

The language this week has gotten a lot better!! I am more fluent, (I speak better and quicker but nowhere near FLUENT), and have learned a ton more mga salita (words) in Tagalog as well as find a way of studying that works out well for me in learning the language. I added a picture of a sentence structure using Pseudo Verbs/Existential's that we spent literally 60 min discussing to make sure that we kind of understood it. So it has been a blast and it is so cool when things just finally click with me. But there is still tons to learn and know for in the future. And I can't wait to be thrown in the language where I will be able to understand next to nothing. But it will be good I am sure.

So the spiritual for the week,

On Tuesday we have our weekly devotional, and this time we had a member of the 70 come that is the president of Missionary board in Salt Lake. I can't remember his name right now and I don't have my note book so sorry!! But he and his wife talked about the importance of the work we are doing right now, and it was really good, but that is not all. During choir, our director, (I love brother Eggit so much, I think that is how you say his name) was having us sing, Testimony, which is about Christ living again. He told us "think about your testimony and what it means to you". I started thinking about family, and friends, and girlfriend and how because of what Jesus Christ did for us, we can all be together for eternity, and I started crying a Little bit. Then after the devotional we had a devotional review as a district where we shared what we learned and what the spirit taught us. Every single one of us were crying our eyes out. The spirit was so strong from what we thought of the devotional and the special musical number, we grew closer as a district and, wow it was just amazing. I know for myself that I felt the spirit. I couldn't stop crying for 10 min afterward 😂 but it is all good now. Look for what Christ has done for you and your life, he is apart of everything you do, and he loves you so much. He will help you in all your trials!!

And with that, that is my week!! I leave for Manila in three days but won't get there for 5 days, It is a really long flight!!
Keep on writing
I love you all!!

Love,
Elder James Dunyon
