The Elders playing a game of hacky sack in their soccer jerseys
This week was kind of slow. Nothing crazy happened, it was suuuuper normal. So I was pretending to be an investigator with one of the Latinos and it was going good. She asked me to pray at the end, so I did. I was trying to act like an investigator and seem like I didn't know how to pray that well. I said "Please bless me with some good blessings," (in Espanol) and I'm pretty sure she though I was serious. She laughed at me after for a while.
I had to teach the law of chastity yesterday, ha, ha. It was hard. I'm reading the Book of Mormon again, in English, because I figure if I am asking people to read it, I should too. I've been hackysacking every night with Elder Hill. It's pretty fun. There is an Elder here from Desert Hills who I play basketball with. We also got a new district leader this week. I've been having good conversations in Spanish with the Latinos and my Espanol is getting way better. Some things I say in Espanol only now because I know them better, like perl, si, ousted, etc. I'm leaving for Honduras in 2 weeks, but I'm not sure what day. I'm stoked for the field!!!
Dear Elder Sullivan,
ReplyDeleteWe are so happy to learn that you are mastering the language and are excited to get out into the field. I'm reading the Book of Mormon,too, for the second time since our Stake President asked us to read it in 90 days as a birthday present for President Monson.
Every time I read it, I come upon something I hadn't noticed before and I wonder how I missed it. We pray daily for your success.
Love,
Grandpa and Grandma Washburn
