Bonjour!! Well today marks exactly half way done with my time here at the MTC!! It is such a great feeling! I love it here at the MTC but I am so ready to go out and teach the people in Tahiti! This week was filled with so many amazing things! At the beginning of the week I was really sick. So I was able to ask an Elder in my district to give me a blessing to help me feel better. The next morning I woke up and my sickness was completely gone. It was such an amazing experience. I have such a strong testimony in the power of the Priesthood. I know that it was through my faith and the power of the Priesthood that I was able to feel better so quickly. Also going along with blessings, I was asked by a few people to give them blessings this week. Giving someone a blessing is such an amazing experience. The sprint was so strong and I know that I was just the mouth piece for the Lord. It is such a good feeling to know that people had the trust and fai...
Hello Everyone!! This week has been super busy with missionary work. We taught close to 30 lessons this week and got 7 new investigators! It has been crazy busy so my week went by so fast! I just want to start off by telling you all a normal day for me. I wake up at 6am every morning. Between 6am and 7:30am I exercise, shower, eat breakfast and get dressed. Starting at 7:30am my companion and I do our daily planning till 8am. From 8am to 9am I do personal study. Then from 9am to 10am we do companion study! Our first lesson usually starts at 10am. We usually teach like 3 lessons before lunch time. We go back home to eat lunch. After lunch we then go back out and teach lessons, find a new investigators, do service and visit members and inactives. We then have our Fa'atama'ara'a (dinner) around 6:30ish. After dinner we head home and shower and do personal things. Then bed time is 10pm. And that is a day of Elder Van Lindt! On Saturday the other Elders living in our house...
Hello! Man has it been a LONG week! This week was another great one! I still love it here at the MTC and I am so glad to be serving a mission. This week consisted of a lot of scripture reading! I love the scriptures, especially the Book of Mormon. I turn to the Book of Mormon every chance I get. My love for it has grown so much. It has helped me so much. I turn to it with questions and always find an answer. This week we were able to watch the Stadium of Fire fireworks, so that was a bonus. On the 4th of July we didn't get to do anything or watch any fireworks. So I just laid in my bed and listened to them at night. My birthday was good! Thank you for all the cards and emails! My entire zone sang Happy Birthday to me in French so that was awesome. This week I thought I would be released as a district leader but they kept me in there so I am still the district leader for my district. Our Zone became the biggest zone at the MTC this week. We have about 90 French speakers in ...
