Secret Aztec formula
Well, I enjoyed the secret Aztec formula, but it didn´t really clean me out. I think I´ll keep drinking it anyways for the protein and the taste. It´s pretty good with vanilla and an apple. Today a member is planning on feeding us "hot dog burgers". Not sure what that is but supposedly they´re pretty good. I´ll keep you updated.
So this week I learned the importance of arriving REALLY early to take your investigators to church. We went to pick up Martín, an older man, and bring him to church at about 11:25. Church starts at 12:00. What we weren´t counting on is that he wanted to walk...and walks slower than a turtle. We got there at about 12:45 and missed the sacrament. That means we walk about 30 times faster than he does. It´s ok though. He had a great time and plans on coming back. His son has a baptismal date (Arturo) for this weekend. This weekend is our last chance to baptize before transfers.
Also, the water cut off yesterday...so we can´t wash dishes or shower. Eww. The whole area is out, because of some repair or construction whatnot. All I know is that I´ve never been able to brush my hair without gel before. Zone conference was also this week, and they talked about attitude and being happy while you work. I suppose the effort to shape up and improve the mission has created an overly serious mindset in the mission, which I have seen. It´s important to enjoy yourself on the mission. Actually, any creative or fun contacting ideas or things to do in the house are more than welcome!
The members are more and more willing to work with us, although we´re out of cell phone minutes which makes things more complicated. However, we´ve got a good relationship established now. Hopefully we can make the most of it, since there is a week before transfers. Never miss a chance to help out the missionaries!! I´ve been here a while, but as usual you never know what will happen. Elder Record thinks I´m gonna be a ZL. Elder Wilde thinks I´m getting another greenie. I really haven´t a clue. All I know is I´m comfortable where I am and enjoying what I´m doing. Thank you so much for your prayers, I know miracles are just around the corner. A lot of them are already coming to pass insofar as my own life is concerned.
More details later, but for now its time to scoot!
Love,
Elder Lund
Also!
I am now in 2 Nephi 10 reading the Book of Mormon in Portugese!
