Any
pictures of Morgan? I can't believe she's already baptized! That's the
last of my cousins to get baptized which makes me feel ancient. Also,
you said you made Chile Relleno. That means you made one. Its Chiles
Rellenos. Got to know your spanish grammar ;). Also did you know that
really means a refilled chile? A member showed us their daughter's
marching video. I don't drive a ton yet, because I'm just getting used
to the directions in this area, but I'll be driving more. I'll probably
let Elder Mehew drive more.
This week since Wednesday-
Thursday
we went to a baptist church!!! That was awesome fun! We have a
potential daughter of a family where she's the only one that still has
potential so we went. It was fun. Very flashy, good service, the
discourse was doctrinally correct, but ya know, the spirit just isn't
there. It was just fun. La Iglesia Emmanuel Bautista.
Friday,
oh yeah, Friday we lost our cool investigator. She said that at church
she didn't feel the spirit like she wanted to (she goes to a
pentecostal church) and thought her answer was to go back to her old
church. Not what we wanted, but she's still golden and now just isn't
her time to really go. But she gave us tamales! Those were delicious.
Saturday
was another crazy day. We were going to pass Jeremy off to the English
elders but they couldn't come so we were at his house a bit, he gave us
pizza, we prayed with their family (his girlfriend just got home from a
crazy surgery) Sunday we passed him off basically
Sunday
was church, and it was a pretty good day. The high council apparently
has something messed up so me, a sister, and presidente Clark spoke. I
was just short, like a testimony short, and same with the hermana
Ojeda. It was good, and I guess I have good enough Spanish. I've
noticed (even just from what people tell me) when I'm in a position of
like giving a talk, teaching a class, in a position where I'm not being
conversational that my Spanish is much better. I've always been better
at speaking when its not a quick conversation. I like listening and
explaining too much. But yeah, We get fed a lot, and its weird when the
english family feeds us every Sunday. It is just foreign to me. Also
learn to make horchata!
Well, that's all folks, more next week, its that darn time thing.
