- Elder Baird's #BLESSED Mission: WEEK 3 MTC: Bonita Elder Fenn

Welcome back to another week of how many classes did Elder Baird fall asleep in?

Surprisingly, none. Now have I remembered anything from said classes and workshops. No. Not really. But I felt the spirit and it kept me awake, so I guess that's good enough.

This was actually week 1. 1 full week of MTC. 1 full week of mediocre food, and very delicious chocolate milk. 1 full week learning chinese. 1 full week of feeling the spirit. and 1 full week of eating chips and queso. (That's the actual thing keeping my body nourished). But this week has been great. I'm tired all day everyday, until I get back to the dorm, and I can't proceed to fall asleep because we are doing way to much talking and some shenanigans. And yes we are doing miracle time, I'm not that disobedient of a missionary. The true reason I don't get any sleep though is because we have a chainsaw in our room... Elder Fenn.... I don't know how bro does it, but he's got like 50 different snores pre-loaded at the sound of a JBL speaker at full volume.

This week we got to do two temple trips which is always amazing. I got to do sealings which was really awesome. It just makes me remember how lucky I am to be sealed to my amazing family. Just remember how lucky of an opportunity it is that we get to live with each other for time and eternity. God is good.

But classes and chinese, learning how to be a missionary. All the good stuff. It's been great and I've had fun. Even though we live in poverty hills, I still love being here, and I'm kinda sad to leave. But next ya'll hear from me, I'll be in the far off state of Canada. It's okay to be jealous. But I love ya'll and love hearing from you guys. Thanks for all the prayers. I know I'm finna have the best two year and hope ya'll have the somewhat best two years. If only I was there with you guys then it might be the best. But I'm blessed, I'll pray for ya'll to be blessed.

Prank of the week. Our roommate may or may not have laced the other roommate's ramen with laxatives. Come to find out, his ramen was stolen by another elder, and a couple hours later we heard someone having some troubles in the restroom. Sooo uhhh.... Rip.

Final thought, be happy. Life can be hard, we all have trials but be happy. Adam fell that men might be, and men are, that they might have joy. God wants us to have joy. He knows. He knows everything we are going through and what we want. Just trust him. It's what keeps me going everyday. I'm here for a reason, you're where you're at for a reason. He needs us in the places we're at. Also tuesday devotionals are goated. Don't bury your talents. We've all been given them, go use em'.

Bon voyage friends
