February 28, 2010

Hey hey family! hows it going in Costa Rica mom and dad?? you didnt tell me about this trip you´re taking! lol.. SO your eating pretty much exactly like me... lunch breakfast and dinner are red beans, rice, pollo! Ya there is a bit of a difference in the way people speak here for sure. they dont like to add the s at the end of words so sometimes its hard to tell if they mean it plurally or not. Im pretty jealous but im here in bluefields on the coast too.. i get to enjoy the cool coast air (sometimes) and see the beach and the water. It would be nice to swim but ahhh we cant haha..

WEll i hope that its going great with all of the fiends in Costa! MY compainions are really thankfull for the awesome package that you sent me! they are always askin for more candy and more carne seca haha. Well that is good that jordan is starting to lean more towards the BYU. it really would be better off for him the the long run and in the preparation for the mision too.

I heard about the earthquake. . 8.8 on the rictor scale wow thats really scary.. we were teaching some lessons and people ahd the news on and we saw a bit of the damage that was done.. i hope there arent big faults here in nicaragua

WEll my stomach is doing alrigght .. I was feelin sick a bit but im feelin better now no worries. Dont worry about the white t shirts. The sister taht washes them bleaches them out really good and theres no problems.

All is going really well here. We have placed a lot of baptismal dates this last week to prepare for march. We are working really hard and trying to unite families right now. We are reactivating some less actives and teaching the daughter and her two children that never got baptized. WE taught lesson 1 about the restoration really clearly and watched the restoration. The spirit was really strong and we were able to resolve some of her previous doubts about the book of mormon.
Just to testify to you the power and help the the Lord gives to his missionaries is obvious in every day. When we get up and follow all the rules of the mornin like starting our studies at 8 and 9 instead of starting late beacuse of the shower or wat not the spirit is really with me the whole day. IM able to teach and testify and talk more clearly. When we dont study well or not at all i really feel that im not progressing at all and wehn i speak it isnt fluent. Im really grateful to be serving the lord and i have learnd that obedience really is the key. IF we want to achieve anything we have to be obedient to the commandments of the lord..

well g2g Love you all!!!!
