John's letter 5/26/08

Well the wedding sounds like it was a blast. O the beach that does sound like fun haha. But its still there when I get back right? Anyway this week flew by. We worked pretty hard because I only have a week left in my area. We had a babtism of 2 kids saturday just kids of members that weren’t babtised at 8 years. Nothing really else happened I got sick for 2 days but it wasn’t so bad I didn’t leave the house. Just woke up in the middle of the night feeling ¨chopi¨ (not good) but ya other than that the week went by really well. Sunday was really funny because we had a surprise visit from the 70 in our area and he is awesome. I taught a lesson with him the first change for like 2 hours. He has an answer for anything I cant imagine what it would be like with a prophet or apostle. He gave a bunch of ¨wasca¨(giving stick) at our branch because noone is ever on time and not many less actives members are coming. So it was good to see that. His name is elder campero and he is in the first quorum of the 70. my Spanish is progressing its just hard for people to understand me at times. My companion says its not my fault because the people just zone out. But who knows. I wish I could have seen everyone playing rock band that would be interesting. And that’s a shame about Indiana jones I saw a preview of it the other day and thought it looked cool. But o well. I bought my sweater down here for like 14 bucks cause I didn’t like wearing my hoody with a tie. So we went to this place where most missionaries go for ties and sweaters and such. So ya I liked that one the most might go get another one today not too sure yet. O ya! Haha I got your package finally. It was really funny. Zone leaders told me they had a surprise and it was this beat up box. Apparently the box got wet or something that’s probly why they kept it longer so it didn’t fall it apart while sending it. But ya I got everythin inside I think. We think they took a peek inside too. But the candy is heaven im savin the twizzelers for a bad day. But the girl scout cookies were chalinga. We have a new guy we have been talking to at this church called Cristo viene and yeah its pretty weird. We walk by all the time and take a peek cause they watch these animated videos and have this preist they always watch. Ya so we stopped one day and talked to the main guy. They apparently know the end of the world is in april 14 of 2024 at 4 in the morning. We thought wow that’s pretty good. They know there scriptures really well but the one thing that’s kinda out there. Is that Bill Gates is satan. Seriously they have a book about it they gave us all about how he is antichrist because he wants to put this computer chip in everyone that can make us read minds or something. Ya its pretty weird we have another meeting with him to clear up some questions. We just gave him a pamphlet of plan of salvation and see how that goes. Well I love you guys im doin fine. Hope everything still goes well at home.
