First interesting news.
There is this lady, Gogol Sophie. I love her. She is the sweetest lady.
Her granddaughter Shantel is an investigator who will be baptized on the 31st. Anyway. Sister Sophie. When she talks about where she
goes to church, or when people ask where she goes, she uses the phrases,
"where are you churching?" Or "I am churching here". It makes it sound
like an event! Like where are you schooling, but churching instead! Pic
don't know if I am explaining myself very well. But I am trying! I just
think it's a funny way to say where you go to church.
This
week hasn't been too interesting. I'll tell a few little secrets about
my companion. First. He won't use a
microwave. They can kill you. Second. He doesn't like treat meat.
Because it is unhealthy. I mean, yes, if you overload, but your body
needs protein! He won't cook vegetables. If they are cooked. Because if
they are cooked they aren't healthy at all. So I'll probably just eat
chocolate one since I have learned that vegetables are unhealthy. I also
have learned that soap is bad for your skin, and toothpaste damages
your teeth. Who knew! I mean, I always thought that those things were
supposed to CLEAN you! So he hasn't used soap or tooth paste since we
have been together. I might be the first person to die from bad breath.
But enough complaining.
The
Hunts are currently trying to leave. They are packing up as I type
(we'll hunt and peck because I am using an iPad). But yesterday we had a
farewell for them. It was great. They both spoke, and sister hunt was
wearing all of the traditional clothes. There was a luncheon. It was
very nice. It will be weird to be here without them. I love them and
miss them! But I am just lucky that they only live in sandy. So it won't
be too long until I am back terrorizing them! Haha!
Things
are going good. I love this place. It is challenging to connect with
the people, but yet I love them all so much! I will miss them like crazy
if I leave. I may leave in two weeks. But you never know! The people
here just have such sweet spirits! I love them! All of the older ladies
are just so loving!
The
success is moving on. We should have three people getting baptized on
the 31st. Goodwill. He has quit his word of wisdom problems.
Shantel. She has finally convinced her mom to let her get baptized. And
Thobekani. Sweet kid. Seventeen. His mom is a pastor though. She is open
to him getting baptized, but she isn't super interested in the church.
We haven't been able to meet her yet. But apparently she is really
nice.
Things
are going good. I love you and miss you so much! I can't even explain
it. Thank you for all you do for me. I can't wait until we get to see
each other again, in real life, not on skype! I love you!
