Dear Family. . . This last week was good. I officially completed 20 Months in the
Mission, and it has been 2 years since I opened my Mission Call. Time is going by FAST!!! That’s crazy that Kwenton gets home on
Wed...He gets home with Elder Heiner’s cousin I think. And Tyler gets home in January! Last
week we had changes. I thought that I
might have had a change but I’m still here in 3 bocas with my comp, Elder
Chavez. I only have 2 transfers left
after this one...I am praying that it will be in a new area for the last 3
months of my mission. I don’t want to be
stuck here 5 transfers or for you guys 7 months. Elder Chavez and I had a better week. We had more lessons and more new
investigators but nothing real solid yet.
I’m pretty sure that the zone leaders are gonna want to do divisions
with us this week.
The office or Pres. haven’t said anything about calling home
for Christmas, but Elder Chavez and I have it all figured out. We have been looking for a place to skype on Christmas
but everyone is going to be closed and they are closing at noon Christmas eve,
so like they close at 8 in the morning for you all. Yesterday after lunch we went to the chapel
and downloaded Skype to the computer in the Bishops office, and I have a
webcam. I logged on yesterday to see if
it worked and I sent Grant a message. It’s
the last call home from Paraguay, it will be a good one. I will be at the chaple at 4:00 my time to
skype all of you...and Spencer too!!! Can’t
wait....I even have my paper of stuff we can talk about on Christmas! Only one week...YES...CAN’T WAIT!
For the Missonary Plaque, Moroni 10:32.
That’s what i want on my plaque, if they can do it in Spanish do it in Spanish
but if not that’s fine.
You all in America, nice and toasty warm in the house...no
problem...it’s so hot down here.
Yesterday, walking to church at 8 in the morning, 100 degrees! Not cool.
We cooked an egg on the road Thursday...took like 2 minutes...yeah that
fast! And the worst thing about all of
it...I don’t have AC. The Ac didn’t work
very good anyways, so we had some dude come look at it and he took it out to
see the problem...some big thing they have to replace....he hasn’t brought it
back yet. And the office said that they
would get us a new AC in 2 weeks. Yeah
right, they won’t ever get it to us, and the guy who took our AC won’t answer
our phone calls...I’m pretty sure he sold it or something...fetching Paragayos! And I think that i am getting skin cancer, that’s
how hot and strong the sun is!!! We can’t
even sleep at night, at home it cools down at night time...not here....it gets
hotter...You wake up in the morning all greasy and in a puddle of sweat on your
bed...grossssss!!!!
My Christmas plans. . . pretty much nothing. Eat my Hickory Farms while I skype you
guys. Nobody here invites us over for
lunch or dinner, less chances that they invite us over for Christmas. Our plan was to make some Mexican food, tacos
and quesadillas. But my comp has no
money left for the rest of December and I have 300,000 left, so Ihave to share
with him again! Don’t know if my Christmas
dinner is going to happen....too bad I’m not in Puerto Pabla with Jorge and
Betty, eat some Crocodile and some Armadillo and Cow Tounge, and Manta Ray and
Beaver for Christmas. Oh well, this just
means that next Christmas when i am home will be even better....
So mission wise, like the investigators are not really
progressing. They read and pray every
once in a while or they pray to the virgin of Caacupe, but they never come to
church. That’s the problem with
praguayos....their pretty lazy... They just won’t come. We had 3 people that were certain that they
were going to come to church, yeah you already know who came...nobody. We did find a cool family this week though,
The Azucas Family...it’s just hard for the Dad, he doesn’t really believe in
anything.
DAD. .
.tienes que mejorar tu español. Tadavia
puedes hablar mas o menos pero hay muchos errores. Era un poco chistoso leer su carta haha. Sepas que te amo y que te quiero mucho. Gracias por todo. En quatro meses vamos a hablar bien, y vamos
a cambiar tu español...toda la familia se van a burlar de tu español. Si esto
pasara, no seria muy bueno. Te hace falta venir a paraguay bueno no a paraguay,
su español es muy feo, te hace falta visitar a Mexico u algo haha. Te quiero papa. Hablaremos Martes en la Navidad, en Español. Y dudo que Grant me gane en una lucha....yo
soy el mejor de la familia. No pierdo a
mis hermanos...no importa si tenga 200 libras...yo soy un capo y siempre salgo
campeon. Y cada dia manana y noche hago
mis ejercicios....y son muchas.
Flecciones del pecho y abdominales....yeah buddy...Mis brazos y pecho ya
han crecidos mucho...esta semana me pese y peso 157 libras....y no soy
gordo....entonces que venga Grant a perder....lo voy a destruir!!!
Oh and mom, Christmas pretty much doesn’t exist down here so
ill just leave it up to you to find me an ornament. Thanks :)
Love you all . . . see you on Christmas!
Taylor
