Another week down, and one more to go until my first transfer is done!!!!
So, first off, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY DAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hope it was a good one of in alabama!!!!
First off to answer questions....no I havent gotten any packages yet, I might tonight, monday nights are when we recieve mail and packages. We cleaned our room today, dont worry. Yes, it was a real tarantula, but it was on the wall of a member´s house, OUTSIDE, but the dang ants are what I worry most about. And yes, I had my first zone conference this week. It was a 2 zone conference. And I love my mission president, he´s the best.
I´m not going to lie, you all know I love BYU football but Ive gotten ZERO UPDATES!!!! WHAT IS THIS????
So entertaining story of the week. While this didn´t happen to me I still think its hilarious enough to be included in the email. So out here theres a billion and a half churches. So one of the ministers of a church here asked one of the members for a triple, and she gave it to him. The reason for this is hilarious. This minister uses scriptures from the book of mormon, and doctrine and covenants to further explain scriptures from the bible!!! WHy doesnt he just tell his members to join the real church of jesus christ????
Question to Nathan, Will, and Dan, how long did it take you to get down the language, because im sick of always bumbling in my speech!!!!!
While me and my companion are doing well, my zone is suffering. We are the only ones baptizing regularly in our zone (speaking of which we have another baptism tomorrow!!!). The sister missionaries literally have no progressing investigators, which means they will not have another baptism for at least 3 weeks.
So story of baptism. 3 weeks ago we contacted a man named auriliano. We taught him a lesson and asked him to come to church the next day, and he accepted. But when we passed by his house on sunday, we could tell that he was a little tipsy, but we brought him anyway. When we came on tuesday to teach him, he was VERY drunk, so we told him that we were gonna come at 9 am the next day to keep him from drinking. We came at 9:30, and already he was very drunk, so we told him, that we were gonna come by the next day in the morning, and he better not be drunk. So we did and he was sober, we taught him the Word of Wisdom and the doctrine of christ and he hasnt drank since!!!! ANd he will be baptized tomorrow!!!!!! WOOT!!!
So mexicans like literally EXERYTHING spicy. Ice cream, fruits, candy, all spicy. And in this part of the country, there are tortillas offered at every meal. Literally every meal Ive eaten at houses of members there are tortillas offered. Even if its something like spaghetti with chicken cordon bleu, and always, tortillas are there.
Now this week weve been without water, and I realized that the water system here is stuck in the 1960s. So what ive done for showers this week is go and grab a bucket of water, bring it into the shower, grab a tupperware container, and...shower...
But yeah, everyone here is obsessed with soccer, as I thought they would be.
So, I think that is it for this week.
Love you all and SEND ME BYU UPDATES DANGIT!!!!
If theres any grammar errors, its because I don´t want to change anything because this computer is SO DANG SLOW!!! Literally it cant keep up with my typing, it is slower than our old computer!!
Love,
Elder Kevin Ammon Wilde
