| Alright, so these are some pics from last p-day. We went to IHOP for breakfast and I ordered the strawberry-banana french toast and it was SOOOOOOOOOO good. I thought I had died and gone straight to spirit paradise! (apostate?....nah, I dont think so) Ha ha! But pretty much everyone else got that too. |
 |
| And then we went bowling |
 |
| Elder T. kicked all our butts though. He`s good! |
 |
| I had to learn how to bowl a new way cuz I was curving it without a curve ball! Ha ha!. It was tough. |
Alright, so I really don't have too much to tell this week. We have been able to find some new investigators and we now have two people with baptismal dates. J.— his wife is a member and we are hopefully going to marry them and then he is going to get baptized, and the other one is with a lady named M. I really hope her date doesn't fall, but it's kind of looking that way. She really wants to get baptized and she is doing really well. She can't read, so that's a little tough but the only thing that is keeping her back is her husband. He doesn't want to get married. But I think we are going to be able to get through to him. She thought that we weren't even going to be able to get him to talk to us but we did. We taught them both together, and even though he didn't want to, he really liked it— I could tell. He`s just one of those guys that has never been religious and has a hard time admitting that that he likes it. Idk...he`s kind of a funny guy. And he has a real drinking and smoking problem.
But other good news! This week they are going to call E. for his job interview so if it all works out we might be able to put a date with him this week and I might be able to see him get baptized before I leave!!!!!! (if of course I'm even leaving this change, but I'm pretty sure I am) But I would be SOOOOOOO happy if that happened. I LOVE that family so much and I have really been able to watch that man gain a testimony by making sacrifices. It has been so amazing to watch. But it might end up just like Dolores and he will end up getting baptized a week or two after I leave. Ha ha. But that's OK. The thing is that he has a testimony and he gets baptized.
So, there are a couple things that I wrote down so I wouldn't forget to tell you, kinda dumb, but that's OK.
So, first of all, I have forgotten to tell you about this every week since I came to the office, partly because I wanted to get a picture to send to you of it first, but......drum roll........THE GUATEMALA CITY HOLE IS IN MY AREA!!!!!!!! Ha ha ha! It is so crazy! It is awesome! It is seriously like around the corner and two blocks down from the chapel! When I first walked through there, Elder C. didn't tell me anything and I was just like walking and looking around and I just like stopped and was like, I know this place. This looks familiar. Just by like the buildings around and then I looked at the corner of the intersection and I saw that there was an entire house missing and I was like, "HOLY CRAP! Is this the hole?!" and he was like, "Oh yeah...I forgot to tell you." Ha ha! But it is so cool!
Other thing, just kinda funny, so we we're driving down the street on our way to the office and I saw this huge sign of "Boss", supposedly a new show on TNT. and I said hmmm...that sure does look like a show my family might get obsessed with. ha ha So my question is, are you? ha ha Well I guess maybe you don't know yet cuz I saw it came out like two or three days ago, but still....
And No— we are not obsessed with it —at least not yet! :) We have not even heard of it...funny how he knows what is on TV and we do not. Must be missing a little TV watching and hoping we will watch it for him and tell him if it is any good.
And the last thing, I have a research project for dad! Ha ha! I know, I'm sure that's all you want to hear. But here`s the deal. So in the office we have a TON of good music that I want to put on my iPod before I leave the office but all of the computers are windows. So, I was wandering if you could research a little on how I could get that off and put it onto my iPod without having to reformat it and losing all of my music and pictures that are on there cuz I want all of that. Especially the Christmas music!!! and there is no Macintosh around, as far as I know.....so that would be awesome if you could figure that out!
Oh and I did buy myself something for Easter Mom! I actually had ordered them before you told me that though...oops, but I ordered some SICK leather scripture covers for my Spanish scriptures! They are SO tight! I will have to send you a picture next week. Alright, well I best be off. My time is up.
I hope you guys are relaxing it up up there in Spokane (or however you spell it! ha ha) I miss you guys a ton! You are all the best and I love you so much! Well, we`ll talk to ya next week.
Con amor,
Elder Welch
