Okay this was the slowest week of them all for me this time.. I don't know why but it was! Sorry for getting to y'all late but I had a pretty cool experience this week. Elder Hatch and I were contacted by a woman who was pretty stressed out to say the least. Her son, (main source of household income) was graduating high school and was going to be moving out to go to school.. Her text summed up was basically "I've tried every route to go about my life and nothing has worked, I figured because y'all bothered me all the time and kept wanting to talk about God and Jesus Christ I figured that I would try that route. HOW DO I COME TO FIND JESUS?" We had a really neat experience going to her house and talking about her questions. She was very scared to come to church but because of the people that were so kind she felt very welcome. Even if she was in jeans and a t shirt. The main message in church this Sunday was "God loves all of His children no matter what th...

This week was so grand, I got to go on exchanges with Elder Satuala, he's from Samoa and such a stud! His area is one of the few areas that have bikes so we rode everywhere! I loved it! I guess once youve been a missionary and have been on bikes for over 4 months you automatically become a pro because this man was flying everywhere! around turns, down hills thru dirt and weeds, all without using his hands! Boy were my legs sore after that day.  We had an awesome service project for Rob, he is getting rid of all of his Grandmothers stuff so we got to keep what we wanted! Old Books of Mormon, Crazy binoculars, that kind of stuff. My companion Elder Hatch was digging thru the stuff and found a ton of black mold in one of the boxes and I guess if you breath that stuff in it makes you pretty darn sick. His guts were messed up for a few days. We went to Swan valley as well and its probably the prettiest place ever, my trashy camera couldnt capture the true beauty of the place. The guy th...

Just A Plethora Of Tears

Haha hey yall!  So much crazy stuff happened this week. We went on Exchanges (when two paired up missionaries switch partners for the day) I got to be with a stud named Elder Rothe, he's crazy good at graffiti and he's working on my "tag" right now haha!  I went with another missionary named Elder Freeze as well.. He's like 6'6 and from indiana and is the best! He's a Spanish missionary so we got to go to some Peruvian peoples house and then went to a family that was 100% aztec (Lamanites *cough cough*) they fed us rice beans chicken and super spicey guac! dang good! but at the Aztecs home I had the most disgusting thing I ever ate in my life.. it was called Chicharones which is basically boiled pork skin. Ew! (in jimmy fallon voice) It was the first time in my life I picked around something..  At the Peruvian family I drank the worst thing Ive ever had in my life.. Some people think its really good but I dont. Its blended up evaporated milk, with sweetene...
