Dear mom and everyone,
Thank you for making
the letter shorter:*
This week was just a
normal week. Tuesday, we got the ex-bishop to come with us to a
lesson but it fell. My comp was expecting him to go home after that but no he
was like where are we going next. So, we tried to see another investigator but
of course he wasn't there either. We finally went with this less active family.
That was super cool because we planned a fhe for tonight with them
and the bishop’s family.
Wednesday, we went to
an hma that her mom is very sick, so we cleaned and put together a special bed
for her to make it easier to clean her. Then we had lunch with an ex-misionera,
and she had her neighbor there. she was this shy little 14-15-year-old and we
got to teach her a little. Oh, and later that night we were looking for a
member to teach because a cita fell and we get stopped by a drunk in his car.
We were knocking on the door of a member and all of a sudden, screech!! quienes
son ustedes. somos representantes de la iglesia de Jesucristo.
(broken English) Oh you’re gueto. did you know I was in the states for 3 years?
The sent me back because when I drink I drive. and here they don’t have a
problem with that... I can’t imagine why.
Thursday, we get
called in the morning and we have to go on divisions with the assistants so I
head over to their area and E Chacon gets to stay here. It was a good time but
we only ended up having 3 lessons because everything fell. Chacon went to all 5
citas back to back. so, they were working like horses. But they did find two
investigators we had been looking for a long time so that’s great.
Friday oh Friday.
So, Sunday we had planned to have a ward activity and the ward was actually
planning it so that was great. And us being missionaries invited all of our
investigators and less actives. But guess what we learned at lunch like two
hours before it was supposed to start. They changed it to the next week without
telling us. so, we run to all of our investigators trying to tell them that it
is next week. We got to everyone but one. One of the investigators that Chacon
had found went all alone. Luckily the other ward was having their activity and
the misionera could call us for that and we got it all straightened out.
Saturday, we were
invited to a wedding by someone we contacted but of course we had a surprise service
project that ended up just being us and two others. but it was a good time we
just took a bunch of empty bottles to a recycle place.
Sunday, I wasn’t
feeling well so we took a nap and didn’t get much done
and today, we had a
lazy day I washed some clothes and bought some food. We had planned to visit a
tyluda place 2' mins away but it ended up being closed.
Okay for the call we
know a member we a ciber (internet cafe) so we are going to use theirs. I don’t
think too many people have computers here which is the problem with doing it at
a member’s house and according to my comp nothing has changed as far as time.
The ward is awesome
all the members love us and love to help us when the can. Haha about the ward
mission leader, he’s in Utah for school, and I have no idea when we will get a
new one. The old one didn’t do anything anyway. Sundays are easy for us haven’t
have to give a talk yet but there is a member that loves to correct us and call
on me when he teaches a lesson. Oh, my suit pant one of the legs needs retheming
and one of the belt loops got torn off by my back pack buckle and the zipper
broke on the black pants with the horizontal strips. I know a member that can
fix my suit pants but idk about the others. oh, and my comp lost a lot of
weight here so he had some extra that fit me with a belt that I could have.
Ok Love you all
Elder Olsen
