3rd Letter, but Who's Counting?:)

Hey Family!

Another great week in the MTC, where do I start? did you get my letters with the account stuff in it? sorry I was a little slow getting the last one the mail. did you get the books from BYU? hope so.

This week has been crazy, so i'm going to start at the end and work my way back,

Today I got to go the the temple, it's always a great day, I learned / saw things that I haven’t before and had a great talk in the celestial room with Elder Fish, he is leaving in two weeks for the San Cal mission, way cool elder, I never realized how cool the book of Arbaham is! there is some way cool stuff in there!

Yesterday I got to pray in Sac meeting in mandarin! crazy it's so amazing how much I'v learned here,:) the Lord is helping me so much! after that we got to go for a temple walk and had a blast, we ( johnny nick and I) tried to find each other so we could have a photo with the three Harr's but not this week we weren't able to connect, maybe next week, but I did see Elder Koford and Elder Osler and Elder Willson, all great elders thatI know from SVU, we are meeting tommorrow night before Elder Willson leaves, and then Josh Yarn joins us on Wednesday. Crazy!

Saturday was great we all went to the TA ( Teaching assistent) where we contacted in Chinese it was so cool because we got to testify about the basics of the church and got to know them and know about their family so cool, if we have xinxin ( fath 4 and 1 tones) we can do anything! thanks for the awesome example! you are so awesome!

I hope that you can understand this because I tried to type some chinese and it's being weird!

It's so crazy how much you can learn when you ask the Lord for his help. I asked my tongban what his fear is right now and same he asked me and we both decided our fear was to fail, to not be good enough, and fall short, but then we read D&C 84: 56 I think and 116 and we agreed that if we just rely on the Lord we don't ever have to worry about that at all!

Thank you for the cookies everyone that get's one loves them and says thank you so much! I have two requests this week, will you send some addresses? for family and friends? and will you send a battery powered fan? I like to hang my shirts and there is not the best air flow through my room so it takes awhile to get them dry. thanks for all that you have tought me.

you are so awesome! snail mail :)

Love you

Elder Jedediah Harr
