Things are going good this week. This week went by pretty quick. I have been pretty busy especially with being a zone leader and stuff. Which by the way has been pretty fun. I have been able to get to know a lot of the elder's on a more personal level then i would have if i wasnt zone leader. That doesnt mean we havnt already had problems. hahaha. But it's really fun and requires a lot of love and patience. Its great.

I have actually missed playing the bass up here. I have talked to a few elder's who played cello or something and we just talk about different music. And it totally made me want to play the bass. So keep that, who know's what will happen when i get back. And im excited, becuase one of our teacher's Hermano Sheide is trying to get us to have a district devotional together in spanish, and he was saying he might be able to get a guitar or two and me and this other elder cuz play a hymn, so i hope that goes through, cuz i havent played an instrument in what seems like forever.

Yesterday was an incredible day. On a pretty awesome note, we as a zone, decided we were going to eat all of the Marshmallo Matey's. As a zone. They put all their cereals in these dispensers things and its pretty awesome. So we just went to town. We ended up eating about 50+ bowls of marshmallow mateys. We completely emptied it. And it was so awesome cuz all the cereals around them were completely full except ours. We were so proud, you might be getting an awesome picture. So prepare yourself.

On a more serious note. We taught our second lesson in spanish and i loved it. I thought it went great. My spanish is coming a long more and more each week. And the spirit was super strong and im super excited to leave. Still pretty nervous. Also, i had what was probably the most spiritual moment of my life yesterday. We have devotionals every tuesday. And we had a member of the first quorum of the 70 there. Elder Glen L. Pace. It was the most incredible talk i have ever heard. The spirit was so incredible, i cant even describe it. It was a very spiritual sacred thing. He was talking and said "I asked them not to record this devotional tonight, in case i was prompted to share something that is sacred." And me and this other elder just looked over at each other in awe... Like oh my gosh whats gonna happen. It was seriously the most spiritual night of my life probably. Incredible.

Anyways im glad things are going great. I only have one more bag of seeds left. haha. I guess we go through those pretty quick. But that isn't saying that you have to send more haha. Thank you for all your prayers and all your love. Im learning more and more each day and i have been so blessed. And as for my leave date? I honestly have no idea. I'm pretty sure its like May 5th? But we will be getting our flight plans like next Thursday. Can you believe that? HOLY COW. haaha. Its so crazy how fast time has flown, i can't believe I'm 3 weeks away from entering into the field.

Well i love you all, you are all in my prayers. Stay strong!!

Love,
Elder Kingsley
