Week 4

 Life is going great!  I don't feel like writing a long email today because I don't have time!  Tell Davis and Chancey that I am excited for them!   William is getting married! haahah!   I am so excited. but so sad also because I am not going to be able to be there!   I love Alex's  hair cut!  Keep it bro!  It is so exciting to hear about all the misison calls !  It is amazing!  Already I know that serving a misison is going to be the best experience  of my life!   It is so uplifting and it is so hard!  Learing a new language is ridiculous I have decided!  But spanish is seriously so much better then english!  We try to speak in all spanish all day 100% of the time and I love it but it is so hard to communicate sometimes. However it is getting easier and easier every day!   SO last week on Tuesday I got called as the district leader and served faithfully for 5 days!  It was a great experience and I learned so much.  I love being a leader!  It is awesome to try to help other missionaries to the best of my ablilities!  Being district leader was good while it lasted! hahah.   Basically I was in charge of making sure the district was progressing and the purpose of a district leader is to invite other missionaries to come unto christ and help by being an example!  I got to have interviews with the missionaries so I could report in all the meetings and I am in charge of helping elders who are struggling in the district!  It is a fun job I learned a lot but now I am on to bigger and better things! hhahah Just kidding.On sunday morning they called me for an interview and my companion and I sat in the interview and they told me that I would be released as the district leader! I thought "DId I do something  wrong!!   I guess they only needed me for 5 days!"  hahah but then they told us that my companion and I would be the next zone leaders! I did not see that coming, but I am glad I am being given these opportunities to learn and grown! It is great. I love all the people in the zone and it is so great to be here in the MTC and learn so much from all these amazing people!   I think that they were just testing me for 5 days as a district leader to see if I could handle being a zone leader!  

Life is going great!  It is going so fast! It us crazy. I have so much to learn but that is so exciting to me!  I am improving  so much with spanish but I am so terrible still!  

Last Thursday I saw Zac at the temple as I was leaving!  We didn't talk but be said hi and it was great to see him!  I guess he works with my branch president in the technology department at the MTC because last week when I sent my report  to the branch president I got a message back and he said "do you have any smoothy recipes you want to give me? and by the way how is Gail!"  I was so confused!  I had no idea how he know a these things!  I was wonding if he facebook stocked me or something!  hahah   But no I guess he got some inside info form Zac!  hahaha It was hilarious!  My branch president is my favorite person!  He is soo funny!  I bet Zac could tell you some stories but yeah he is so chill and it seems like he is sleeping 24/7.  Right after I saw Zac at the temple I saw Haley Charles!  hahah! Ihave  literally seen 15 people I knew either at the mtc or at the temple!  Tell Haley I say hi! 

We have so many good times as a district and we are leaening so much and feeling the spirit so much!  I need to learn to rely on the Lord more but I love Him so much!  Tell Onna thank you for me for the cookies! They were amazxing!  She always sends me things just when I need it!  I love playing basketball ever day!  There are some many good players and we play with elders and sisters that play division 1 basketball in college!  They are amazing and I love it!

We had something called TRC skpye and my companion and I taught a lesson to a memeber over skype in Ecuador! He was so cool and it was the best experience this week! The spirit was so strong!  Feeling the spirit is the best gift that we are given on the earth. I am a seeking to have the guidance in my life 24/7 !   I love this gospel and I love you all! 

Love you mom,dad, alex, Abby, cameron and shelby!  you are the best family any one could ask for!  I miss you all!  You are such a strength to me! Keep up the reading ALex you are amazing!   

The Book of Mormon has brought me so much closer to Christ and I love it!  The MTC is the best place and I am going to be sad to leave, but I am so excited for leaving soon!

Count down begins 12 day!  Peace out family!

Love ELder Quist!
