April 10, 2017

Well i can offically count the days i have left on two hands and its
kind of freaking me out! Its so unreal!

Jaja that's pretty great and very dad like to have him just have this face of ??? (Saul spoke in church today with a recently returned Sister missionary. She played a trick on him and got him pretty good. For a second, Saul thought he was going to have to speak for over 30 minutes.)
I just remember when he ate a huge spoonful of mayonnaise on that cruise. jajaja Super dad-like. jajajaja

I am really bored with writing all the time but we had a good week. We are just working with all of our investigators that have feches (dates) for the 22nd or 29th. My comp is excited to have like 9 people progressing! Woo!

Just working hard and excited mostly. jajaja I LOVE my topic by the way. I will have to prepare something awesome but humble to show my progress as a missionary! jajajajaja Return home talks are weird.

Miss you guys tons!

Huh, I didn't even realize Justin is mission aged.... that means....LANDEN is almost mission aged! What the heck has happened while I have been gone!? That's super cool though, Columbia is a place that is blowing up right
now in the gospel because the government is controlling the drugs more so that's cool!

I am loving the mission right now. There were soooo many cool experiences this week but I have soooo much flojera (weakness) to write them all down. We found ten new people in a pueblo all at once and just were crazy teaching all of them at once. We also had a few cool investigators go to church. That was super awesome and they will be baptized next change which is exciting!

Loved conference it was a spiritual upbeat that was needed because I almost feel numb to always feeling the spirit. I feel it as a missionary and feeling like a learner and thinking of home was really fun.

Fun fact - I tried Nair yesterday in a pijamada (sleep over) that we had. Didn't know what it was but we put it on one of my armpits. I give it a 0/10. It removed 0 hair, smelled like old junk mixed with burnt hair oils, made my skin super dry and itchy, burnt me pretty awful and seriously my armpits still kind of tingle after 2 showers.... I called the hermana in our district because I was worried. jajajaja It is fine I guess.

Other than that just ya know keepin on keepin on!

Yeah, I also am like just super tired of writing to be completely honest. jajajaja Not enough crazy stuff happens in the middle of nowhere to tell a good story every week.
 
Kuntzy is STILL our home teacher? I don't think they are ever going to change him. jajajaja

My converts are doing really good here in Vega, a couple of them even went to the temple to do baptisms and its pretty awesome! We are also working with a bunch of different people right now. It is funny because the spirit works so weird with me to find people. Like I might be junior companion but I still feel like I call the shots and God sends me to places that I have no idea why and then suddenly we find new people to teach. Like on Saturday we didn't have much to do for like an hour. So, we went around to contact some people by the highway in the shops. I just happened to look in on some cool leather work things they had and the owner told me she wanted us to talk to her daughter and we taught a lesson with her right there in the store and she went
to church yesterday.

So yeah, I just keeping working and buying cool stuff for you guys. Don't think I will be able to buy everything that I really want to for everyone.

General Conference weekend is always amazing and I will be looking for some personal revelation for after my mission!

Miss you guys lots!
