3 Weeks Down in Palmira

Whatssupp family?!?!  TIME IS FLYING!!!  haha wow i cant believe im already half way through the transfer here, and i only have two left after this one!!!  (there, i said it, it scares me, but i said it).  But alright im stocked to hear youve all had a good week!!  Mark, WAYY TO GO in BBALL!!!  Jared, igual que William, quiero ver videos de trukos allì con tu yoyo!!!  Mom and dad im glad all is well, yes dad the hawk looks HUUGGEE in the picture here haha WOW!!!

Alright mom so im going to be honest and not keep secrets, i woke up pretty sick this morning, with a fever, i dont think its the virus you asked about though, ive rested all day and am already feeling a lot better, all should be good tomorrow or wednesday!!

K the recap real quick!!  Saturday morning we had an AWESOME baptism (k not us darn it, the other elders in the branch with us) but it was really cool because the house chapel here has a portable baptismal font!!!  yeah THATS RIGHT!!!  haha cool no??  So we set it up in teh primary room, a bunch of metal bars and tarp, and did the baptism there, it was a small service but one of the more spiritual ones ive been in in the mission, really cool!!!

K to answer more of your questions mom, and they were good ones this week haha, no the meat is honestly pretty weird here.... dont tell any colombian i said that, but its still pretty good, but everything else is REALLY GOOD!!  The chicken especially is really good quality and affordable, i grilled chicken for lunch yesterday!!

yes we do exercise every morning, for half an hour, and ive gotten pretty good at pull ups, i just do pull up ands push ups and plyometrics sometimes, and sometimes we leave the house and jog around the neighborhood...

On pdays, well they banned basketball and soccer a few months ago, thats been rough, but we have a fun game we usually play in teh chapel with the zone with a hacky sack where we have to kick it three times and then we can peg people and eliminate them!  its WAY FUN HAHA!!!

yes i almost entirely use the book of mormon, i LOVE explaining it to people briefly and then showing them trhoughout the lesson how it is that it answers questions that people still have after reading the Bible... My favorite scripture is easily Ether 12:27, ive found SOOO many different ways to interpret it and apply it to life.... There really is no other book that moves us closer to The Lord than the Book of Mormon!!

Entonces con eso dejo mi testimonio de que el Libro de Mormòn realmente contiene la plenitud del evangelio eterno!  Me encanta la luz que se ve en los ojos de los investigadores cuando sienten el Espìritu y se dan cuenta que su familia puede ser eterna, que pueden llegar a ser como Dios, que Jesucristo comprende todo lo que experimentamos, y muchas otras bendiciones!  Comparto este testimonio en el nombre de Jesucristo, amen.

les amo

nos vemos
