Well, I'm just gonna start by saying if I had a nickel for every time I heard that phrase this week I wouldn't be on a mission because I'd be living in the Queen's palace!
The first few days here have been really rough because it's such a big change. It's been a good change but it's still kinda weird. My district is awesome! We have Elder's Bourgeous (pronounced 'bur-jess'), Young, Moser, and Williams. It was kinda weird though, because I started with only one companion (Elder Bourgeous) but then on Thursday I became the district leader and a bunch of other fun stuff happened so I'm now in a three way companion ship with Elder Bourgeous and Elder Young. Anyways, they are all excellent spiritual sons of God.
Cool story of the week was the first day I got here my comp, Elder Bourgeous, had a really bad migraine all day and was feeling sick so the zone leader and I got to give him a priesthood blessing. It was incredible, no more then three minutes later, his headache had completely gone away.
The gospel is true brothers and sisters, the power of the priesthood is God's authority on this earth. I love you all and want you to know that Christ loves you so much and wants you to spread the gospel!

From Jen (mom) -
He also called and we got to talk to him! He's doing great! He told us that one of his favorite things at the MTC is choir practice. They hold it twice and week and are singing and practicing just for the joy of music. Sadly, there won't be an MTC choir at General Conference this year. He loves the choir director who teaches them the history behind each hymn they sing and uses the music to bear testimony of the gospel and the Savior.
