Week Two and Three!!

Hello everyone, 
Things are awesome at the MTC! My Spanish comprehension and speaking are getting much better. I’ve recently had  my teachers switched which makes me happy because the new teacher Brother Moen’s teaching style suits me better. I still have some fears having to teach in Spanish but they are easing us into it by  first having us first contact in Spanish and then to teach in English. We practice teaching on volunteers from the community and sometimes teachers pretend to be someone who might be interested in the gospel to make it feel more realistic. They’ll pretend to be someone they know who has a certain need in life or question about the church. This helps us to have the spirit as we try to share our feelings and thoughts about the gospel. 
My French has actually come in handy when we are doing grammar though I’m told that it will be of little use in Texas.
 I had planned to join the choir here but I find the time is better used for practicing Spanish and  studying .I do get the opportunity to sing, however in a less formal venue mostly hymns with the other missionaries. We most recently  sang "Called to Serve"... the way it was directed made us sound like an army marching off into battle like the 2000 stripling warriors in the Book of Mormon. As missionaries we are like an army, a army of God trying to go forth in this sometimes dark world to help others receive the light of Christ.
 I visit the temple weekly which keeps my spirits up. My companion, Sister Rivera and I are feeling greater unity as we continue working together. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I would love to hear from everyone!
Love,
Hermana Dilzer
