Entonces...this is gonna be another short one. Pday this week was a bit hectic. Nothing intense just all over the place so not a whole lotta time to write something up. 

A quick story about another bash we had! I love how many of these we're having , I love em. So basically there's this guy, we were out knocking and we met him, and he opens the door and it REAKS. Like it smells like dog poop, garbage, and all sorts of other unholy scents. It attacked my nostrils and im still trying to recover to this day. And this guy sees our tags and just goes off about how we're the worst people alive, how we'll all go to hell for being the best people, he didn't say that but I mean...we are pretty rad. And then he slammed the door which I was very thankful for cause I was about to pass out. 

And! We had a Fiesta con pasole y guatemaltecos. Some of the best pasole I've ever had. And the Guatamalens were so funny, they kept making jokes about beer. My companion kept sneezing cause he's got allergies and so this guy goes, "necesite una cerveza para hacerte mejor" you need a beer to make yourself better. And the rest of the night kinda went the same way. I love Hispanics. 

Anyways...bye

Hey guys, I got to bash with this hispanic guy and he got mad at us and cussed at us in Spanish. Probably my favorite mission experience to date. 

Bible - 1 John 1: 7-8 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

Anyway this one is short, bye 👍

My first transfer is officially over in two days. I feel like it's the weirdest thing cause I feel like I've been here forever even though I know for a fact I've only been here two months. It's wild bro.

Alright let's get into it. La chamba of this last week, what I've done and all that. So I don't think I talked about this in my last email...pues, this last week was a little weird cause we didn't have a regular pday, we had ours on Wednesday cause we had a temple trip with a recent convert. He's the coolest man alive, Jesus. El campion de mi corazon. He made us carne asada on Saturday too, but thats besides the point. We went to the temple amd we had a beautiful time there with other elders that Jesus knew. We did baptisms and all that, Jesus butchered all the white names, hilarious. My guy was in the trenches trying to pronounce these Elizabethen era names. Stud. 

And i think the most important news of all is that I bought a tortilla press during this last week and I couldn't be happier. I've used it everyday since i bought it and I want very much to have everybody know i have one. Cause i do, and it's fire. 

We've had a lotta friends drop us recently which is a bummer cause...they ghosted us and haven't answered our texts which stinks cause i wrote a few texts and they turned out pretty slick. And they ignored it. Ouch. Sorry for the sad paragraph, just had to get that off my chest. 

I've found my favorite phrase in Spanish. I found it while reading scriptures and it's pretty rad. "Porque serán arrajados al infierno" Bars. I will probably never use this, but it's fun to know. 

On a spirtiual note, I love the work I'm able to do here, to get to know these people and share the light of this gospel with them. Because I have been blessed to have grown up with this knowledge, and I want others to come to the same knowledge, and accept Christ into their lives. We had stake conference and there was a heavy theme about patriarchal blessings and the importance of reading them often. I've made a goal to read mine at least 3 times a week, and I'd like to invite all of you guys to try to read however many times a week you'd like. I testify that these are sacred blessings that will give us a path to follow, and goals to set, just so long as we are diligent to our covenants and stay faithful to our Heavenly Father. I say these things in the name of Jesus Christ amen. 

Bye 🤝
