"....is a different state than Virginia...." Week 2

Hey everyone so this week has been amazing. first off last Monday night i had been noticing one of the elders in my district was struggling with something. I pulled him aside into a empty room and asked him what was wrong. He was silent for a long time and slowly began crying he told me of a past sin he was worried about and was not sure if he was worthy to be here. he told me about his struggles and i couldn't stop myself from crying. I was able to relate to him. i said elder there is only one way you will know if you are worthy or not, we need to ask God. we knelt down and i said a prayer first then when i was done he followed up with his prayer. as he opened his heart to Heavenly Father and then ended his prayer we sat there kneeling in silence for a while. then I got the most distinct impression almost like it was a voice in my heart and mind saying that he was worthy to be out here and that he had those experiences because he would meet someone with the same problem. I began to cry again and i said elder what do you feel and he said he felt peace and then i told him what i had felt and heard and we both started crying again and we stood up and hugged. it was such a powerful experience that i will never forget. As far as non spiritual things go for Monday during laundry i started a giant arm wrestling contest. there were like a hundred elders going at it it was awesome. i placed 2nd and ill send you a pic later of why.  anyways my elbow hurt for a while. on Tuesday elder Dallin H Oaks came and spoke to us it was awesome. after that our district all went back to the residence while me and my companion went to get mail. as we were heading back to our residence i hatched a amazing plan. i sprinted up the stairs and said elders get out of your pajamas elder oaks is letting our branch meet him hurry and sprinted back down the stairs. me and my companion after a little walked slowly back up the stairs as they came rushing out half dressed trying to get everything on and just started laughing they weren't as happy about it but it was awesome haha they all eventually started laughing to. on Wednesday we taught sunny for the forth time and in the previous lesson she had said she was liking what we said but didn't know if it was true. i asked if she had been praying and she said yes but that she didn't know what she was feeling. so instead of teaching her one of the lessons i took it a different route i taught her how to feel the spirit and the fruit of the spirit and how she could understand what she was feeling and we told her how to have better and more diligent prayers then i said to her that she needed to find out whether or not it was true and as we left challenged her to have a solid answer next time we came the spirit was so strong and it was a awesome experience. later that day we did something our branch president had told us about the first day and it was that when our district was together in class to have each of us tell each missionary what we loved about them. as we went around and each person said what they liked about everyone else the spirit was so strong. i was last and as i was about to start i just couldn't stop crying i love each of them so much and pray for them so much that it was hard to not get emotional. i could barley talk but i told everyone what i loved about them and it was just such a powerful night.  on Thursday elder bednar came and spoke to us. he did a q and a and it was just awesome he is so powerful and bold when he speaks. the food was just cafeteria food but it didn't really matter i still ate a bunch. im not sure if i have gained weight or lost weight yet haha. its weird to think i leave the mtc in a couple days i have so much to learn. i came in to the mtc pretty prideful and i have had to repent of that i realized how little i actually know and how much i need to learn and now im leaving so its kinda a bummer. but i also cant wait to get out into west Virginia oh and by the way i got a temporary assignment to west Virginia which according to my district is a different state than Virginia but i don't believe them. sunday was a sad day my district is leaving at like 2 am monday morning so one i had to get up in the m,iddle of the night to hug them and say good bye and two(i used the right to for you mom) im gonna be all by myself today. but a cool experience on monday was that the branch president pulled me aside for an interview and as we were talking about the elders in my district and everything before i left he said conner i just want you to know that when you first got here i felt i could trust you and now as you are leaving and i have gotten to know you i know that i can trust you. that is pretty much everything from this week. i head out in like 18 hours so i might call while im in the airport. love you all. i gotta send the pictures in a different email.
