Hi Family,
So this week was kind of ordinary
except for Wednesday. Every Wednesday we go with the Spanish elders to do service
at a food shelter. While we were
there a guy thought I had some very cool looking tattoos because I
was wearing those under armor socks that you sent me. He was very impressed by how much color
was in the tattoos and wanted to know where I got it. Then a bigger lady
thought I called her fat for telling her that she could take a lot of food if
she wanted. OPS! Just trying to be generous!
Then some other lady gave me her phone number
and told me to call her when I have a chance. So it was an
interesting day that day. On Thursday we found out that our zone
leaders came into our apartment when we weren't there. They
took all of our door hinges form our doors and stole them and they
wont give them back until I leave and they also hid our doors.
So not nice!
I really think I have learned so much
about the Holy Ghost here. It is so important in teaching the
Gospel. And also in converting peoples
hearts.
We are teaching a younger boy who said
he wants go get baptized and wants to know God and what the spirit feels like. It is so amazing to teach when people really
want to learn.
Also for dinner on Friday the members
had a sword collection and I got to hold some of the swords and some of them
were from lord of the rings
And for Elder Jones year mark we went
out to a really fancy restaurant called the Venue.
I got the package that you sent to me
but I never got the package from wahoo. I think it is in their post
office still.
We are teaching a boy that is 15 and
has done meth and smokes a ton and he came to church after the first lesson
with him and he really liked it.
We are getting along great! This
is our third week of running and we are getting into shape. And we have not
planned for the baptism yet. And any color works.
That organic muscle milk is wonderful. Could
you send me more? And my comp loves watches and weird socks
I love you, Elder Vance
