How are you feeling? Well I am feeling better I don’t have diarrhea
anymore. I just need to keep eating a lot of food, but that will be
easy. My comp is feeling sick
still, he is pooping blood now. He has Helicobacter pylori which causes ulcers. Did
they put him on antibiotics? The medicine comes tomorrow. That doesn't
sound good, how long has he been feeling sick? He has been sick since
Wednesday.
I had one of these this week in my big toe. Are they ticks and
do they bite at night? No I sat down and
took off my sock and there it was, no wonder my toe hurt all day long. There isn’t any infection but it still kind
of hurts a little. Is that the first tick you have seen on your
mission? No it is my third one in the
mission
What is your spiritual experience for the week? it would have to bee
the change in attitude of the branch president he has been super de-animated
because he expects instant change. But I truly feel like the change is just
about to get here, he even has started to plan activities. What kind of
activities? We are going to have a grill
party and cook meat and share a message.
It was just amazing to see his attitude change. And now I feel that the
branch is going to start to grow. We are working on looking for inactive
members there are over 300 of them and less that 30 active. So we have a lot of
work to do because this change is coming to an end and the last is soon to
begin. Have you found any young men to get come to church? Well we had 4 young men this week. Hopefully
5 or 6 will come next week.
Tell something funny that happened this week. An investigator gave
us backpacks that are completely clear plastic and it is hilarious. Well we have been using them so the man feels good
but I truly hope it breaks soon so I don’t have to use it. The backpacks
are great everyone knows what you are packing.
Yes there hilarious and sometimes we just have to laugh about them. No
one will rob us
What do you have to do being the district leader? Well I just have
to call the other elders and get their goals and things like that. Then on
Tuesdays I have to have a meeting with the other 2 elders in our district.
What did you do for p-day? We ate in a hotel, it wasn’t anything
special because it was breakfast but it was good. We will have to go back for
dinner. Are there places to eat in your city? There are a lot, there is even waffles and
crepes. Can you get strawberries down
there? Yes they use in the restaurants
the frozen berries from price smart from El Salvador. What about Whipping Cream? Land of lakes whipped cream in the
pressurized canister. Do any families
feed you? Just one family feeds us on
Sunday night. I am looking for new things to cook because I have eaten way too
much tuna fish.
What are you studying right now? Lately I have just been studying
the lessons in preach my gospel so I can learn how to teach them better and so
I can explain things in a way that even a child could understand. There are
many people here that just don’t understand much but we will see if the spirit
will help them understand.
When will you meet the new mission president? We will see him on the 30th; we
have to travel 5 hours to a meeting.
Your apartment looks pretty nice. Does it rain most every day?
It rains every day and the power goes out at least every other day. Does it rain most in the morning, or any
time? It usually just rains at night. Do
you have candles in the apt or sit in the dark when the power goes out? We use the flashlights.
Well my time is up. Love you all and talk to you next week. We might
go super far so if we don’t write there wasn’t time. We will try and write it all depends just
don’t worry if we don’t write, we will have lots of pictures for next week.
