August 24, 2014 (He left his camera cable home...no pictures :-(
Dear Mom and Dad!
You guys had a
very busy week! crazy! Sorry about the van troubles and the loss for the Laubs,
but pinochle, camping, and ribs sound AWESOME!
Well this was a
pretty boring week, but I'm still happy and working hard! Sorry the camera cable
in the house! Muchas fotos en la siguente semana!
So like I said
last week we were going to baptize, however we were trying to move his baptism
date up, and some investigators are okay with that, however Humberto is what
Nicas call "Fresco" haha which means he is very calmed down so he
does not like moving things very fast or changing plans at the last minute haha
he is kind of frustrating sometimes hahaha :) But he is pretty solid to get
baptized this coming Saturday! :)
Elder Merrill
went to Rivas this past weekend to solidify possibilities that were down there.
So I stayed alone in the area with Elder Lopez! We have been working in this
new part of our area that we had not worked and we have had lots of success! We
brought 6 new investigators from there on Sunday, and ended up bringing 12 in
total! 12 is the minimum we have to bring every single week! So we know we can
work harder and be more obedient!
Speaking of
Coke... Just some fun thoughts I had this week hahaha :) A bottle of water here
costs 16 cords, or about 50 cents haha :) however a glass bottle of coke costs
9 cords, or about 30 cents :) a liter of gas costs 30 cords, and a liter of
cokes costs 18 cords :) a liter of water costs 35 cords. Water more expensive
than gas, and Coke is the cheapest of all! :) #ThirdWorldProbs
Basically what I
am trying to get at is that we drink probably too much coke haha :) I went a
whole two weeks without it one time, then I ran out of my money for the 14 days
haha :) Oh well, Ill get back into the $1 Powerades from McDonalds when I get
back, or just being able to drink water! :)
Anyway Sorry for
the short uneventful letter, but next week it should be a great letter! This
Saturday we have a HUGE meeting with the two missions here in Nicaragua and the meeting is being
presided by ELDER RUSSEL M. NELSON!!! #SitUpFront #ModernDayPeter
I love you!
Thanks for the Pizza recipe, and for getting that contact Solution!
#Stuggggllliiingg :)
Love you!
