ok so i knew that calling would be completely unexpected this early so that is why i did it...i thought that it would be funny but aparently it was sad for lydia...its weird because i really don’t know her..she is so young and i feel that it is the hardest to remember her out of everyone....she looks so different in the few pictures that i have of her...that seems super wierd to me...not sure what is going to happen to her and all that good stuff...
ok so really in this ward its like the member will give us references and thsi week we have recieved 8 references from members and its hard because the people just give them but dont show any initiative or anything or follow up. they just are like here you go have fun, oh well can you come with us or can you invite them over and stuff. oh well I’m busy and we are never here..so they are like not interested in what happens to their friends or somthing there are a couple families that are willing to help us but they are genuinely busy and stuff. its just hard and when they can help us is in the night and they dont want to go outside in the night because its dangerous and stuff...so it’s not like they want to leave the safety of their homes to go out and walk the streets and a lot of the members don’t have cars so we would be walking sometimes for a while i mean the areas aren’t as big as the states. where they have 2 or 3 wards to cover but it is big enough to take some time to walk around and make visits...so I’m not sure what, they don’t want to help and don’t see the importance of it.so I’m not sure what to tell you...it’s a lot easier in the states with your cars and cell phones and what not...love you pop

Letter Home 12/13/10
so lydia had to get bit to meet the neighbors????
interesting.... so i dont know what you guys were thinking...i just wanted to call and i knew that you would expect it closer to christmas so i decided to call early....so yea....i thought that maybe i would wake you up but the time is actually later here.....that is interesting....
tell lydia not to worry...there will be time to talk in a couple weeks...but i guess a lot has changed i remember that lydia never slept early, she was always one of the last to go to bed...so that is different to hear that she was asleep...
so that is awesome to hear about vickie. im glad that everything worked out for them...no cancer is defintely good...so what is happening now? is the surgery an easy one or is it in a tough spot what is up now.....
so this week my comp wanted to do a game thing as part of the lesson wiht an investigator.....so ill explain the game and than the gospel principle that we tought...
so we went and bought flour no as missionaries we do not stock up on flour in the house....than we bought like little dulces or candies like something small but not too small....like the size of two eminems or something like that but one piece together.. so you have to pack the flour in a plastic cup and than turn the cup upside down so the flour stays together....than put the dulce on top of the flour....in the middle. than take a knife and cut the flour off of the sides...the point is to cut the flour off untill you make it fall over...everyone has a turn at cutting the flour..whoever knocks it over has to pick up the dulce with there mouth with out hands, to make it harder you put the dulce in the middle of the plate that the cup of flour was on..than you od it again untilll everyone has lost except one person....you cant clean the flour off of your face. so everyone but one person has flour on there face..than we talked about repentance and how in life everyone is going to get dirty with sin...and only one person can help us become clean. there is noway to become clean by ourselves because we are all manchado. only though christ can we become clean...so i thought that it was a good lesson and they undestand the importance of the atonement and why it has to be through christ....
well that was a piece of my week i got all dirty because i lost but it was a good lesson...i love you
