Well you know...nerd.

Sometimes ideas come from other activities, which I modify to meet the situation, and sometimes we create them from scratch. The trick is to just think about what needs to be accomplished, and everything else just comes. This Sunday, there were seven or eight members who promised us references, and we´ll be running around like chickens with our heads cut off trying to contact them all in addition to the ones we already have. CRAZY. It will take lots of careful planning.

So Angel is sick. He ate come chicken cordon-bleu thingamajig and he´s been throwing up like there´s no tomorrow. He couldn´t make it to church to receive the priesthood and he´s spent the last while in bed. Hopefully everything turns out okay.

Lots of investigators in church this week, five to be specific. One is our neighbor, a member of the "Luz del Mundo" church, which has its headquarters here in GDL and is mildly interesting. She had a great time though and is reading the BoM. Also, Andrea, one of the kids from the big family that used to come to church without their parents, showed up as well. We stopped visiting the family because the adults didn`t do squat and so the kids couldn`t progress, but Andrea hunted down a primary teacher and got a ride to church. Persistent little girl. She also got a hold of my hymnbook and wrote her name in big letters on it a month ago. She´s only 10 years old.

I almost lost my voice this week, and I haven`t a clue why. I find it really strange because I just felt tired and could hardly talk, but I didn`t really have any other symptoms this week. I´m fine now though, which is good, but I don`t know what I had. I hope it isn´t insanely contageous.

Also, the heat has been picking up quite a bit. Two weeks ago it was hotter here than in the desert south of Arizona (Sonora) and supposedly broke some heat records. 41 degrees celsius. Now it´s a little cooler. Heat doesn`t affect us too much though, we´re used to it by now. I don`t know if its hotter here than at home right now.

We ate with a half Japanese half Mexican family this week, and they fed us homemade hamburgers. They had some church books in Japanese, and I thought that was pretty darn cool. Well you know...nerd.

Well we´re off to Tala. There´s some things to take care of and clean up, although this district is doing much better than the other one. We had to deal with an Elder who wanted to go home not too long ago, but he´s doing much better now. Always lots to do. I´ll tell you how goes the food this coming week. Take a picture of the family together and send it to me please! It´s awesome that everyones getting back together.

Love,
Elder Lund
