Dear
Family,
That
package really surprised me! I was super off guard! It was way fun
though. :) Thanks! It was really good everything you sent.
Everything is going good though! This last week wasn't so great but
it wasn't bad either. Just average!
My
ward is pretty small but it has enough people. Everyone basically is a
convert. Good 40ish people show up regularly. The area is pretty
big. The other Elders have their own zones in the ward boundaries.
I only use my Spanish hymn book at the dorm. They have them at the
church. That's super cool you guys are going to the Ogden Temple open
house!
I
tried to buy peaches today but they didn't have any good ones... I did
get some Pink Lady apples though! And I'm getting into this aloe thing.
It's way good but kind of like a health drink thing.
I made German pancakes
this morning! That was good! I don't wear glasses anymore.
Not worth it. I can see well enough to get by. If you could
send it, I could use my ankle brace for my right ankle... Since we play
soccer every day it's still pretty weak and it hurts a lot the day after and
during. So maybe if you could send that? I can't think of anything
else but don't send me packages too often! I don't want to get one like
every week! I want to be able to look forward to it!
Ok so this week not
much really happened. We had a really good training on Friday and the
craziest lesson I've taught that night. It was with this guy called Pablo
and we took him on a church tour. He has really improved a lot this past
couple of weeks but he doesn't go to church because he works on Sundays so
that's really hard. We can only meet with him once a week. Anyway we took
him around the church and had a lesson about temples. Then after a long
time of talking and super spiritual stuff I asked him if he would be baptized
and he finally brought up his big problem with the church which is interesting.
It was what if another church comes to him and says that they're the real
church and stuff. So we talked to him about that and we'll talk more this
week but it was pretty crazy and super fragile. It's so much fun to see
how the Spirit works through you to ask questions that you wouldn't normally
say and just to feel the Spirit using you to speak. But by the end we got
an answer and he said he will be baptized! Super cool! We didn't
set up a date or anything. That was all we need for now. We can work on
that but he's at the point now where he has to decide if this is the true
church or not so when we meet with him hopefully he will have made the right
decision! It was just an incredible lesson though. Loved it all.
The only other major
thing this week deals with food. So on Thursday it was Elder Petersen's 1
year anniversary and a bunch of other Elders in our district too so we had a
party! Yay! I made a cake and frosting which was super fun and he
made these really good breadsticks! It was super cool! Then
yesterday, crap went down. We both for some reason ate a raw egg.
Don't worry I recorded it. It was disgusting and really hard to get
down but I did it! I am now even more of a man. So yeah! That's
pretty significant I would say! :) I'm lovin it!
Anyway hopefully this
week goes well... It's the last week of the transfer. I should be staying
with Elder Petersen this next transfer too but we will find out on Thursday!
Anyway have a good week everyone! Love ya!
