Hellooooo family and
friends! I have quite a few good stories this week so buckle down!
To start off. The
Sister Training leaders who live in our same apartment complex have been
pranking us quite a bit. So we decided we would get them back. So we all carved
pumpkins, sent them on a scavenger hunt, and then at the end we threw pies in
their faces and got thing with silly string. I'll include a few photos.
This week we also had
our branch Halloween party. We've been getting a lot of hate from people
recently that we celebrate Halloween. I've been surprised just how many people
hate Halloween. But this past Thursday we had a party, and we got so many
people to come. At the end I believe we had around 19 investigators at the
party! It was mostly based around little kids, but everyone had a good
time!
One more story which
I'm still a little bitter about. So we had just eaten at a potentials house,
and we sat down to teach him a lesson. Well in the middle of the lesson it felt
like I had a rock in my shoe that was digging into my toe. So I wiggled my toe
a little bit, and the pain got a lot worse. At this point I jammed my toe
against the side of my shoe to try and make it stop, and the pain got
excruciating! So in the middle of the lesson I yanked off my shoe, looked down
at my toe, and saw a needle sticking halfway into my toe! I don't know how. But
one of Elder Armstrong's sewing needles somehow got into my shoe, and then
later into my big toe. He says he doesn't know how it got in my shoe but I
don't know if I believe him. If I go missing in the next few weeks, you know
who to look for.
Well I should
probably talk about the food I ate this week. Since I seem to do it in almost
every letter. But I can't help it because the food here is so delicious!
So a list of foods I ate this week. Sopes, camarones, carne asada, sopa de
frijoles, pupusas, ceviche, flounder, ratones....I am in love with Hispanic
food. It's the best thing ever!
We also had a mission
tour yesterday, which was why this email is coming out today. Elder Bennet came
and talked to us all yesterday. And it was such a great experience. I wish Y'all
could have been there to feel the spirit that was present. I know that he is a
servant of God, just like I know the First Presidency and Quorum of the Twelve
Apostles are servants called of God. I love and support our church leaders.
Well that's it for
this week! Y'all have a wonderful week and stay out of trouble!
