10 meses [months]

Well, I hit double digits in months this past week. Cool. So, there´s not much I can write here. It´s been a super interesting week, but most of the things I´ll have to talk about in Navidad or afterwards, p.20 MM (español). Short story is the Stake and Mission are getting involved because of cosas [things] in the ward and it´s way being more a detriment to the obra misional [missionary work] than a help. On the actual missionary side, we´re doing well. Being a trio, it´s easier to do divisiones because we only need one guy to make two companionships instead of two. So, we´re taking advantage of that, just that we only have like 5 members who put energy towards the obra misional. There´s almost a complete lack of support from the ward, though they do still give us lunch. It´s just rough. It´s on the point of being downgraded to a branch for a bunch of reasons. 

Well, CONGRATULATIONES TO TALON AND MADDY eternal families you know what´s up. Lily is a riot in the pictures I miss her. Also, buena suerte to Kenzie starting BYU this week. Sounds like the wedding was a bit crazy, and I´ll be waiting for that slice of frozen cake when I get home. Just two years left. That´s what I tell the people when they ask how much time I have left and they get confused when I say I´ve got 2 years left.

I got the email about Bro Scarbrough, and it´s good and bad new that he passed away. I always remember his gratitude when we brought him the Sacrament every week. I think he introduced me to the pictures of all his children like 5 times, and he´s got like 7 kids. Always a sweet old man, he was. I always admired his wife for her constant smile and support through everything. 

We had a couple of investigators that came to church this week, but they had to go after sacrament meeting so it basically doesn´t even count. This week we´re going to drop a couple people and meet a bunch. Attached are a couple of pictures.

The lights along el Caño Bugre, which is filling back up finally. 

We joke about how filthy that thing is. 

We´re pretty sure you  can get sick by looking at it. 

It looks better in the dark.

 

Always Great,
