Then one of the sisters in my district got sick and had some doctors appointments in Wichita for the latter part of the week so we spent some time trying to cover their area as well and make sure that they didn't have anyone drop off the face of the planet. It was really awkward at times because we didn't really know what to teach or anything because we were in the dark on everything but it went pretty swell anyway and hopefully it helped so it didn't completely fail!
Then the best part of the week. Friday night we got to see Elder Holland's youth broadcast and that was so freaking sweet! He talked about how "One is always a multitude" and to stand up for what we believed in even if we stand alone. I'm pretty sure it blew the youth outta the water! It was Friday night and I couldn't sleep. We had a bus ride to Wichita at 4 in the morning so we could see Elder Holland. It was seriously Christmas x1000. I was so excited. So we get on the bus and make the trip down to Wichita. The whole mission was there so we seized the opportunity to take a mission picture because that rarely ever happens. Then we get seated into the chapel and he walks in and instantly the spirit filled the room. There was so much power and excitement and intensity in that room.
The best part about it all... I was in the front row and he walked around the whole presentation and stood like 2 inches a way from me pretty much the whole time. Let me tell you something that man has some real power and he has gets REAL intense about missionary work. At the beginning he had us all come up and shake hands with him and introduce ourselves and afterwards he told us all that he was having an interview with us just by our eye contact. ISN'T THAT LIKE THE COOLEST THING EVER? He taught some amazing things and really stressed that "we can NEVER go back to who we were" it was the best thing.
So yeah this week was great! Learned some great things!
Love you all!

It was so amazing. Like in close he said "I bear my apostolic witness that Jesus Lives and this is his church" Like the spirit that comes from that is so crazy and to be literally 2 feet away from him made it all the better. He also told us that missionaries are apostles too.. Little a apostles not Apostles but we have the same calling without the keys,. how cool was that.
