even though i just got sent here, we have transfers this week. AAAAAAAAND... I'm staying haha. its a little bit of a relief i guess. i was sure if i would. kinda thought maybe i was just here to replace the other elder until transfers, but it looks like this is my new are and where i will be for general conference this transfer and skyping the family the next transfer!! sweet! haha


its hot here. crazy hot at times. it can be energy draining too. we walked a TON this week. we started working with all the new investigator we found last week hoping to set some baptismal dates. nd we did set quite a few.. buuut.. only one attended church so now we have to reset all the dates.... the people here are so much easier to teach and talk to and so much more accepting..... but they cant commit to nothing. haha for that the attendance is really low. we have tons of investigators though, a couple families too (they are the funnest to teach) haha.


I've started reading the scriptures that go along with the hymns and realized how inspired they are. i even tried writing a song using scriptures, but its hard and I'm uninspired.. i don't suggest it. i do suggest reading those scriptures though. its cool to think about a scripture you've read a 100 times in the context its used in in a song. makes you think about it differently i guess. :) also, i recommend singing them. and sharing them. with everybody. sing primary songs to people in the streets and then tell them to come to church. haha it might work. i think I'm gonna try it.


autumn, entonces cuando te vas? y a donde? porque mamni se va antes del fin del cambio? ó me he confundido? jaja estas bien con tus compañeras? cuanto tiempo tienen ellas? te quiero mucho! y quiero decirte que una hermana como vos solo podría tener un hermano tan especial como yo... ;) jaja chau!

well, i love you guys! hope everything continues to go well back home and I'm glad you got my package!!! :)
