I taught my first priesthood lesson. The only people that attended were the missionaries. The new member from Nigeria was out of town. I learned two things. I was humbled to teach the Elders. I felt a little intimidated teaching them. I know it seems weird that a grown 50 year old would feel intimidated by 19 and 20 year old missionaries but they have a very special spirit and power. They have been called as full time messengers of Jesus. The other thing I learned is that I need to make sure my class member is there. So, I'm going to be diligent at calling him and getting him to church.

Testimony Meeting in Burgos Branch
We rode our bikes to church for testimony meeting. Last week the stake was organized, so fast sunday was today. We had an enjoyable meeting with a good spirit. Madison gave the closing prayer. Since I don't know what people are saying I notice what they do more. One sister was the most animated I have ever seen in a testimony meeting. She was waving her arms all over and had great facial expressions. I need to learn the language so I don't notice weird things like that.
