La Historia de La Paty

So what happened with the revelations guy?

Me and Hna Estrada were walking by and this guy is like with a crazy grumbly smokey voice, “Hey! Can I have one of those little books?”  And we were like, Okay…  I think he was drinking coffee or smoking or something so Hna Estrada gave him a pamphlet for the Word of Wisdom, and he said thanks, and that he likes to read, and “do you have any other ones?”  So we gave him two or more pamphlets and tried to start talking to him about what they were about, but he keeps talking about how he likes to read, Continue reading “La Historia de La Paty”

Sensunapan… month 6

So–I guess I’m staying in Sensunapan for one more cambio! 🙂  Which I’m happy about because I want to stay with Hna Estrada, but I sure hope… I get to go the next cambio.  We’re going to be here through the hottest part of summer and I’ve been waking up at night because it’s so hot.  I’m kindof happy about staying… but I hope the rest of my mission I get transferred like every one or 2 cambios because it’s more exciting that way.  Sensunapan is kind of an odd area because a lot of people start and finish here and stay for six months… like me… Continue reading “Sensunapan… month 6”

This is the End…

Dearest most adoring family mine,

Yeah, don’t know why I put that title, just felt like it.  I might be outa Sensunapan in a couple weeks when the cambios roll around again, but we’ll see.  It would be pretty sad for me if I did go and Familia Cano got baptized… but I really don’t know with these crazy people that won’t exercise more faith in each other.

Sensunapan: January

Dear Family,
It’s been interesting.  I can’t always remember the questions or what I have and haven’t told you… but to answer Aunt Margene’s question, no, I actually don’t get a lot of attention for being a Gringa (north American)…  And actually, my hair is not that unusual.  There are quite a few people with naturally blond hair here, they usually have like olive skin, but there are also a lot of people with skin naturally whiter than mine, and a lot of people with light green eyes, and, I even met someone with dark green eyes–which I didn’t think was possible, but it’s true–far away they look brown, but when your in front of him you can see they’re a mesh of green and brown and only look green up close.

Not Gonna Lie…

Dear Family,

I’m not gonna lie.  I think the only time I’ve been really angry is on pdays when I’m trying to write people.  REALLY angry right now…  The internet won’t work for 10 minutes and it takes like 15 minutes to copy photos onto my thumb drive and 10 minutes to upload a picture on here and I need to send President a photo and I’m mad at him for cutting our time to write down when we need to do things like read his emails and send him photos of our converts.

Grrr. Continue reading “Not Gonna Lie…”
