It's always so great to hear from you guys!! I'm glad you got to spend some more time together this week! I just constantly am amused by the fact that you guys run into Hannah all the time and her Elder Wadman shenanigans in general. I'm glad that Darling's health is stable. We have stake conference coming up this week, and we're having some interviews with the mission president in our homes, so that's going to be kind of interesting!
Elder Rojas was sick the
beginning of this week and so we didn't get as much as I'd have liked
done, but I guess that's how it is sometimes. I did some studying with
the time we had in the house, and have learned some good things. One of
the new converts from last transfer that we've been working with bore
her testimony of missionary work and the power it had to help her
daughters to be baptized so that was cool, and Angie got confirmed. We
have a few people we might be able to baptize in the upcoming weeks, but
we're in a holding pattern as we've been struggling to get new
investigators to follow through on church commitments.
We
also have been trying to teach Serafin, the investigator I mentioned
last week, but every time we visit he's drunk, even during the day, or 11 am.
The problem is he's really depressed since he lost his wife and really
wants our help, but he's never in the state of mind to understand what
we're talking about it, or at least not to remember it, so we're not
really sure what we can do. We also found a great family of 6 that we're
hoping to get excited about the gospel and not just about meeting the
missionaries and asking me questions about America!
Gosh
what things do I want for Christmas? The reality is that missionaries
always end up getting all this stuff and have nowhere to put it, so end
up sending things home or giving them away a lot, so that's been a bit of
a challenge. I could use a 501 Spanish verbs book! Here's some pictures
while I think!! [Note: Grandma and Grandpa Hunt are sending the book]
We had a family home evening with some new converts and played a game that's like Jenga but with flour and a ball in the middle, and we slowly cut away flower... |
And if you lose you have to pick up the ball with your mouth... I didn't lose first!!! But yeah that happened! |
The difference between my polished shoes for church and those from the day before... hehehe |
Again with the gifts though... ummm I like food, and letters, and
oh if you guys could send me one of my other pairs of jeans from my room
that would be nice, just pick the biggest ones in case I continue to
climb in weight haha. It is weird though if you want the details,
because I work out every morning, so I'm fit and stuff and sort of have
abs now but it's like abs on top of somewhat fatness. Um that makes
sense right?
