Oye! Como estan?


Well this week has been slightly less exciting then last week. But still all good.

My finger is fine, we went to the checkup appointment and he says its healing fine, I didnt get a picture of the Xrays but my bone is healing, it is kindof forming a ball around the break, kindof wierd. Anyways the doctor said it will be fine, he did however suggest I do theropy, but after talking with my President and others who have had similar problems, I decided against theropy. I asked the doctor what I could do to help it and he gave me a few excercises to do and stretches and what not, so it should be good. No surgery will not be needed and the only problem I forsee is if the finger decides to have artheritis. Which with some drugs can be overcome.

Baptizms are coming slow, like I said last week the family of 4 we found that whent to chruch, well turns out they loved it! They said they are going to try and come every week and with that attitude I am sure baptizm for them is just around the corner. Just a matter of answering there doubts. WEre hoping also that the last of that huge family of 12 will get baptized this week, she just has some hidden doubts that are being a pain to sacar.

WE get paid this week so I will be buying more vitamins, I actually just ran out last week. So yeah, they do make a difference, especially when you are under alot of stress and your immune system is shot.

Well, my usual day is pretty simple, wake up at 630 (Some days I have a hard time getting up and so I sometimes will snooze button it til 7) then we go do excercises or algo asi. (Elder Barben wanted to go to a gym so we have been going this last week, paid for a month so the next 3 weeks or so will be in a gym, who knows I might come home super buff.... hahaha.) Then it is shower time/eat, then studies, personal and companionship. On Thrusdays usually we do weekly planning so we get done with everything like that around 11 or 12. Then we go out and work until 2 or 3 then we eat for an hour, then the rest of the day is spent working and what not. We come home at 930 or 10, do daily planning for the next day and then journals, prep for bed, and in bed at 1030. PRetty simple sounding but it is actually insanely crazy!

Ok, so not much else has happened this week. This morning actually I lost my clip on name badge, for the suit coats. MEaning I will have to order another and who knows how long that will take. Dont worry I have the one that goes on my shirt pocket so I am not nameless. Just means suit coats are going to be different until I get a new one from SLC

Funny story we were at food and I wanted a cup and so I said "Puedo tener un..." Which means "can I have...." and the word for cup is "Vaso" but the "v" in spanish sounds like a "b" and so I said on accident "Beso" meaning "kiss" so I asked the Sister who was feeding us for a kiss and not a cup..... hahahahaha we laughed so hard... then I corrected myself. So funny. MY companion still teases me about that...

Remember Guadalupe? Well last week he got the Priesthood and so this week he got to bless the Sacrament. I cant describe the feelings I got when I saw him up there blessing the Sacrament with the power from God that he has. So awesome! The other cool thing was Sergio from that big family of 12 got the Aaronic Priesthood and so this last week he was passing the Sacrament. So sweet!

I take more pictures one of these days and send it your way, but picture oppurtunities are hard to find in a place were theres lots of people. Dont want to risk getting robbed!

Well, got to run!

Les amo y que tengan una buena semana!
