Wow, things have already started to fly by. I am now in my last few days here at the MTC, and it is a little bit sad, but on the other hand I'm ready to be put in the real situations in Colorado. Role play scenarios can only go so far, but I know they help me teach more affectively to the persons needs rather than being a robot and spitting out the lesson. I got to go to the temple today again, but this time I did an endowment session, mainly because I don't know when the next time I will go to the temple on my mission. It was great! All of the stress just went away when I walked through the temple doors.
It is way cool that you get to see the power that can come from Preach My Gospel. I don't know where I would be without it and I wish I had studied it before my mission. I love how simple the lessons are because sometimes I tend to over teach, so it is always nice to go back through and see ways I can improve. I just got dad’s email and it’s a bummer that the Chargers lost, I hope things improve because I really thought that this was their season. Anyways, it is really weird to think that I am leaving this Monday because it feels that I just got here the other day. Now we are the oldest district in our zone. I am really ready to get out of this bubble at the MTC and start to apply what I have been learning. One thing that I and my district look forward to is going outside and playing volleyball during gym time. We have all gotten pretty good and it has really been competitive. We also got our travel plans and we leave really early Monday morning. What is awesome is the people in my district who are going to Colorado are all going to be on the same plane. There was a joke earlier that we would convert the whole plane. After the flight attendant explains everything someone from our district will say out loud "If we die where will we go?". That’s when we all start to explain the restoration and plan of salvation. Good plan eh? Naw, we won't do that, but I thought it would be funny. It’s great to hear that everything is going great back home. Allie is getting closer and closer to having a baby which is crazy! This is probably not as long as my last email, but I want to let my comp. get a chance to email. Gods Army, Elder Cooper
