Hey Everyone,
So I didn't
know what your email was and I tried to remember on Friday because they told us
we could email home real quick and let you guys know how things are going but
obviously it wasn't the right email. I’m trying to write letters I’m just super
busy all the time... but don't worry I’ll get more out!
But hey I love
it here so much!! We literally study for 6+ hours a day and it doesn't even
feel that long! The spirit here is so dang strong, I feel it even just walking
around.
My companion
is a way awesome guy! He’s from Milford Utah and his name is Elder Davis. My
district is honestly the best in the world :) and you'll never guess what...
Connor Adams is in my District!!!!! How cool is that!!
But holy cow!!!
Sunday was the best day so far. The whole district joined the choir and we sang
in the devotional with the Nashville Tribute band. It was so amazing to hear
all these missionaries sing with everything they got. While I was singing
something cool happened and I wanted to share my feelings with you about
this... while we were singing they started singing a song about Hyrum Smith. I
instantly started thinking about Carter and I lost it. I lost it because of the
feeling I got. I felt as if he was there right next to me. I felt my brother
and I think this was just telling me that he'll be here in two years singing in
the choir. It was so amazing.
On another
note… these missionaries are kicking my butt!!!
For exercise time they will go up and do a workout before we play games
and I of course went with them. But man do they know how to work-out. I’ve been
way sore but it’s a good sore so I’m thankful.
I have
probably the best teacher here though. His name is Brother Farr and he’s such a
great guy and invites the spirit and knows how to make us answer questions and
have the spirit teach us. It’s amazing to feel. I’m learning so much out here
and I love it and its crazy but I feel like my whole district has known each
other for years and it’s only been a week... the spirit works in amazing ways. I
really know the gospel is true and I know that Joseph Smith restored the gospel
to the earth. I know this because of the feeling I got from reading this
morning. I love you (and everyone else) so much and I can’t wait to get out to
the field!
-Elder Zeller
p.s. I really do love you guys so much and keep the
letters coming!! And I know that my whole district is very appreciative of the
packages! We’ve already had a stick pull game and you know I won!! Those
chickens we're interesting though because one of the guys hit another
missionary in the eye so I had to ban them for a bit... but all in all I love
it when you send me stuff!! It’s so funny because whenever they see our
district leader with a package slip they’re like "I bet it’s for Elder
Zeller". But again it is so amazing here and I love every second of it. Stay
sweet everyone!!
