Anyways, lets see, Wednesday was good, the dryers were not working for whatever reason so that was fun.. lets see, Thursday was cool I guess, we watched a video called missionaries and the atonement, it was amazing! I encourage you guys to watch it because wow! It really gets you and you know that the power of the atonement is real! but yeah, thursday was also our first TRC lesson, it was way cool. Friday was way good, just feeling the spirit all day and then we taught one of our gesture lessons. So what they have us do is have one investigator that knows sign language and one investigator that knows no language at all so you have to like play charades with gospel concepts and stories, i would encourage everyone, especially my deaf family to do that because its way fun and super spiritual when you finally understand! anyway we taught him about God and Jesus Christ and about their love for him, then we taught him about prayer using the story of Enos, he said that he really wanted that so he prayed and it was so awesome! The spirit bore testimony so awesomely! Saturday we got to watch the fireworks inside of our classrooms, kinda lame but still was fun to stay out a little later, also we had a devotional on religious freedom that was just amazing, we talked about how we need to protect religious rights for everyone no matter where or what religion, it was amazing. Sunday, fast sunday at the mtc, was long and even more long, but it was really good the Lord really helped me out. Monday, Oh monday was way cool, I learned about charity in my personal study and then in class Brother Peck taught us about using the Book of Mormon in our lessons, he had me pray and then open my Book of Mormon to a chapter while everyone else gave the "investigator" a concern and it was so cool, the chapter fit perfectly. Then he said we're going to do it one more time and he said one of us would be doing it, and i guess I looked really guilty or something cuz he said It looks like you know whos going to be teaching it Elder Schoemig. I think i may have been biting my lip, dang it, anyway i get up there and one of the sisters in the district is my investigator and her concern is that she wants to get baptized but her family won't let her, so i asked Elder Bishara for a chapter, he prayed and got Moroni 10, so I asked her some questions and I basically don't really remember what I said, but everyone else said it was really spiritual and it matched her concern perfectly, totally wasn't me talking, so thanks to the Holy ghost it was way good! the spirit really guide. Me and my companion really felt good on Tuesday until after dinner, and then everyone was feeling sick, but we all were pretty crazy until 10:30 because we don't break the rules, but it was the fourth of July! so it was awesome.
