Week 9

Another short letter this week. sorrry, im sure skimming through broken english is the highlight of the week. lol


So this week Jorge Ovispo was baptised.... But not confirmed. so thats interesting hah. and so he has to get confirmed soon, or his baptism is not valid. which is sad cause he really loves the church. He is just really chill about things.


Some funny things this week
A little kid started touching my arm and said what happened? i was like thats call hair buddy, he said no the stuff on your skin(freckles) do you have zika? nope, just my skin thanks. Its just what happens to greengos.


Oh so my companion is interesting. hah, we had to get to this house to present ourselves, say hello and all that. And the only way to get down was bak the way we came or down theres rocks with little holds carved into them. So of course i went to more fun way, and so did he. but he thought it was very dangerous and was super nervous. wish i got a picture for yall. think about new born bambi hiking. oh baby, classic.


So theres this dirty hippie here, who, every time i see him hes picking up garbage. and he has like 5 huge bags that he lugs around. Super cool dude, ill get a picture. i aspire to be more like him,. joking nut really a guy i wanna be like is my stake pres. here. hes a cool dude. theres this cornor that drunks hang out by and i stay away. They always try to yell at me and our rude. and agresive and i hate agresive people, so i just think that i would rather not. but guess who i see of there with them? the stake pres. and hes inviting them to church. and is actually friends with them, cool dude. so i think we, especiallly me, could swallow our pride and talk to people and love them. cool lesson to be learned.


Love yall

Week 8

Firstly. Im gonna start with my thoughts of the wek. So everything/everyone is short here. the baptismial font is way shorter than the one in the states. And ill do a lot of baptisms beccause im the only one they trust to get the bigger people in the water lol. People here know a little english and love to make joke and be rude about m ebeing from texas. the drunks always wanna yell at me about trump. ugh.,


So i dont have time, but i had a cool expirence this week. we had a refenence to teach this lady clear out in the boonies, in Iberia, part of the mish. We hike up to get to her house and we walk through a metal fence and it was her door. we walk in and theres her house. so she invites us in and gives us some chairs to sit in.She has dirt floors and the chair she gave me was a red plastic lawn chair. She doesnt have a job or a husband, but she has 4 kids. they cook with a fire. like a campfire. and she really loves the church. As i was sitting there i realized, nothing that i have really matters. Like physical things, have no worth. Obviously there are things i like. i mean like a bed. but, people live with out it. Cool lady, good soul. He kids are suoer happy too. My dad always told me expirence s worth a lot more than things. Its true. haha
I love the mish. Its good stuff. Love you guys a lot.
