August 20 , 2012



Hey how's it going guys. This week i found out i had a sinus infection and was pretty sick but they got me on some antibiotics and i feel a lot better now, i just have a cough. I'm so excited to not be sick anymore because now i can start to work to my full capability. I unfortunatly do not have any baptisms this week. It's really hard to get our investigators to come to church on sunday because there not used to going to church for 3 hours and some of them live pretty far away and dont have cars. But it's all good. It's really strange now talking to people about marriage and asking them to get married and baptized in three weeks. Most of them say no that's way to fast so we just tell them it's a goal and it can be moved back if they need to but we believe that they will be prepared in three weeks. But anyways we taught this new person this week Yarelli and Willian. Willian is an inactive member and his girlfriend isn't a member but she's super receptive to our message. And they excepted to be married Sept. 8 and she would get baptised that day but we have to move it back a day because they didn't come to church this week because they had to go to her moms house unfortunatly. It always seems like they have an excuse when ever we go there. So when that happens we just always teach about the importance of going to church to them for the next lesson. A lot of people down never get married they feel like if they get married they lose a freedom or something. So that's the challenge we have with 3 out of 7 of our progressing investigators. The thing that's really hard like you said dad is contacting people in the street i don't know but that's just super hard for me because it's so fast and i can't respond fast or understand them when they talk to me fast so it's just hard. And also in our area Most of the people we contact gives us false directions to there house and false telephone numbers. Like the month before me with elder Ramirez other coompanion they had 60 contacts that month and only 2 of them were ligit so we try as hard as we can to just get references from members. Anyways i lied last week about the directions to our house when your looking at the massive catholic church in cañas look north from the back of it about three streets down theres a clinic on the north west corner and we're the house right next to it if you go north down the street one house. And the tempature you're reading in San Jose is nothing like the temperature in Cañas. Cañas is super hot all the time it's probably about 20 degrees hotter than san jose. I've been drinking a lot of water now which has really helped. Hey Let Brother  Buckley know that i got his email. Anyways love you guys! ¡Pura Vida!


Um I don't need a blanket because it's super hot at night only some fitted sheets would be nice. The picture was from today we went to a few beaches for our P day. The language is coming slowly i feel like i haven't learned that much new stuff but i've gotten a lot better at the stuff i already knew. It's really hard because they have this verb form down hear that you never learn in classes because it's slang but every bo9dy uses it. i am starting to understand it a lot better now when i don't have a headache but it's going pretty well. Um We go back for interviews next P day and i will be able to see if the package is here yet or not.


Um i probably could i just never thought about that ha ha. I'm glad to hear that kace prestwich is doing better. An That's awesome darbi got that job. I only have about 10 to 15 minutes left just so you know.
