Hola!!
Just like every week, I am so excited to be writing home! Its a refreshing
feeling. This is my last P day in the CCM. I´m going to miss the people here
very much, especially all the guys in my district. We have all grown so close
together and they have been, at times, where i´ve been able to go for
blessings, (for my ankle mostly), and where I've been able to go for a good
laugh, or if I have ever had a question about Spanish or anything like that. I
really do love them.
Im glad to hear everyone is doing well! Mom keeps me very updated, and I am so
thankful for that. This week has been pretty hard because I have been very sick
all week. I had a high fever last Tuesday night and the doctor here, Elder
Gill, who i am already pretty good friends with because of my ankle, ordered me
to bed rest and gave me a bunch of medicine. It was pretty bad for the first
few days but it got better and better, slowly but surely, and now I'm fine! My
ankle is doing MUCH MUCH better. They are having me do physical therapy at the
hospital so I don't have any more problems with it during my mission. And that
brings me to my next story!
My physical therapists name is Samantha. She is always super nice to me and My
companion. Now, the hospital is outside of the wall of the CCM, so we take it
as an opportunity to share the gospel in the little Spanish we know. Well,
while they were shocking my ankle with electricity, I got the impression to ask
Samantha if she believed in God, and she told me no. SO, we asked her if we
could teach her about what we knew about God during my sessions, and she said
yes, she would like to know what we believed. So, we starting teaching her,
SOLO EN ESPAÑOL. And by the end of the message of the restoration, she told us
that she felt something in her heart and that she would like us to bring her a
book of Mormon in our next visit!! Which is on Thursday, so we bought a Spanish Book of Mormon for her and we are writing our testimonies in it. And I am so
excited to teach her some more on Thursday!
Also! Elder Niel Anderson came to the MTC, I got to shake his hand, which was
cool, and his devotional was on getting a testimony of the Atonement of Jesus
Christ and why it is important to have that while your are on your mission. It
was really good and It pumped me up.
I'mhappy Lindsey is home safe!! That's great! I know that she served with
everything she had, and she has always been a good example to me and her
siblings.
My flight leaves out of the Mexico to Dallas at 5:05 in the morning, which
means ill be leaving the CCM at about 2 in the mañana. No sleep again. :´( But
that's okay. I should be arriving in California at about Noon. I'm so excited to
be get back into the United States!
Yo sé que el Libro de Mormon es las palabra de dios. Sé que
Jesucristo es nuestro redentor, y que Él es muy amaroso. Sé que Jose Smith fue
un profeta en los ultimos dias. La Iglesia de Jesucristo es en la tierra otra
vez hoy. Yo estoy muy feliz estar un misionero para nuestro Salvador. Yo amo mi
familia muy mucho. Yo amo el Evangelio muy mucho. Yo estoy listo ir a
California. En el Nombre de Jesucristo, amen.
I love you all!
Elder Dallin Fuell
