loved getting your emails as always family. summer at
the house is always the freakin best. i mean i cant think of a place i would
rather be. pool, fire, ping pong, basketball, man that is the dream. im so
grateful for you guys and for making that backyard fun. i have such good
memories of that house and never living there again is going to be terrible…like
you said its like a vacation. i can go snowboarding, go to the city, the
beach...man don’t even get me started ha, ha, but man i'm sad i'm never going to
live there again. well, it just means i have to study my butt off and get a good
enough job so i can live in alamo.
yea, so the life in guat is well the same as last week i
guess ha, ha. yea, but right now it is sooooo hot the street bubbles because it
is so hot. that isn’t a joke either. like there really are bubbles in the
street. i think i am used to the heat though which is the good thing. i mean, as
used to it as i will ever be. i am just used to sweating always. when i sleep,
when i sit, walk, run, or talk…all day i am sweating. to be honest though, i
don’t really think about it that much anymore. it doesn’t really bother me
anymore. its just in times like right now when i am thinking about it is when i
really realize how ridiculous this heat really is ha, ha. as far as the work
goes right now its slow. we have a baptism not this saturday but the next and,
depending if i have a change or not, i might not be here. if i’m not here then
that is fine too. all that matters is that i helped her get to the stage of
baptism, i mean that is what really counts. so we teach her like one time a
week and that’s all. as far as our other investigators right now they are
really having a tuff time progressing. its soo easy to get investigators and to
teach them but it is really hard to get them to come to church. people think
that all churches lead to god and which church you go to doesn’t matter…it
drives me nuts. yea, so its kind of hard to get people to change that attitude
when people have been telling them that for all their life. the only thing that
can change that thinking is the spirit. they have to recognize that it is the
spirit touching them and not just emotion. anyway, so that is the story of our
area right now. today was a zone activity and we played soccer in a stadium
where the team for all of peten plays. the stadium is actually in our area so
the entire zone came to our area. it was kind of funny because the missionaries
could not believe how beautiful it is here. people were like, how do you not
just get distracted and think you are on vacation…ha, ha, good question. yea,
but that isn’t really a big deal to me. our area is really incredible and
beautiful but i know why i am here so that has never been a problem. this is
the last week of the change and i am really nervous. if i have a change then it
will decide what mission i am in when we split. if i don’t have a change then
there is a good chance that i am going to be in mission coban…but who knows
man. i’m nervous though, because this change could possibly decide where i am
for the rest of my mission…in the cap or outside in coban. yup, that is the
letter for this week. love you guys and pray always. god really does listen
and answer su prayers. love you all and think about you every day. with schools
almost out i especially think about you all in our backyard loving life. man,
i’m loving life too right now but in a little different way ha, ha. love you
all and take care. Love, Elder Call
