Family and Friends,
This week has been full of some fun things! So for those of you who don't
know I'm back in Virginia, where I started my mission. I'm companions with Elder
Armstrong and Elder Luque. They're both great.
I'm also back in the Spanish branch
which I am excited for! At first I was a little bummed to be going back up to
Virginia, but things aren't too bad. In fact, I love the food I've been getting
recently. In North Carolina I didn't eat too much Hispanic food. Just lots of
fried chicken. But this week I had some really good pozole and ceviche. The
pozole was brown which was interesting. I've only ever had green and red pozole
before. But it was pork based with some liver in it. Then yesterday an
investigator had us over and fed us some really good ceviche. He also basically
gave his daughter for me to marry but that's beside the point!
The people here are amazing. We've had lots of success this week in
teaching people who are genuinely interested in the Gospel. It's so nice to see
and it's really fun teaching them! Sadly church was cancelled this week because
of the hurricane so we weren't able to bring anyone to church, even though some
people wanted to come! Bottom line is, the people here are amazing.
We also had a little bit of a storm! As in a hurricane. Even though it was
pretty small we still got lots of rain and flooding. We had to stay inside
Saturday and Sunday. Nothing too bad happened here. I've heard in Morehead and
Nags Head they got it pretty bad. But here it wasn't anything too crazy. Lots of
wind though. Tree branches were in the road and a few telephone poles/light
posts blew over. Lots of people are still without power. But everyone is holding
out here.
Thanks for y'alls love and prayers! I love you!

and had to eat one. It was one of the hottest things I've ever eaten!)
