Okay well about Skype and calling. If I use Skype, it would be Christmas Eve before 4 in the afternoon. Because we have to pay in this cyber cafe and I can`t go breaking the Sabbath to call my family. So it would be before 4 Christmas Eve. But if that doesn`t work, I could buy a call card and just call Christmas Day if that`s better. We don´t have phones, sola cabinas. But de todos modos I`ll be calling 3:30 Friday, to set everything up in the last minute. But I only have an hour of church on Sunday 9 to 10. So it would be after that I believe. So that`s what`s up! I`ll call para ver what we can do. Channing, you call first. Because it depends if you can use Skype or not. Or when. But that`s what is goin down. Oh what is this? Looks like I have to buy credit or something to call on Skype? Daft. Oh wait I think that`s if I want to call your phones. Neva mind!
And I just tested my new account with my compañero and it works. Excellent! So yeah Skype is now an option. I have you guys as contacts. Exito.
So I`ll be callin to find out everything yeah?
And don`t worry Mom, the packages will get here sooner or later. And it`s aight. I´m the child who got an ugly man and thought it was the best Christmas ever. Just a call will be fine.
Well good to hear that the surgery went good, good to hear that Blake is done with school, I was thinking about what his career will be the other day on the bus to Riobamba. Whatever it is, make room for your brother! I don`t have a clue what the heck I`m gonna do so I`ll just jump on your back to success. It`s what little bros do.
And I had a flash back the other day of me and Cambria, her with panties on her head and me with my boxers. Captain Boxers was my name. We went through the house trying not to be seen was our mission. Ooooohhh yeah. Style.
Ah good to hear that Papa and Rhonda are still goin good. And the party is alive! But I really need a list of birthdays or I`m never going to remember. I don`t remember my own mother`s birthday (I apologize). (September 9th?? I think?)
Oh crap!!! I took so much time setting up this Skype crap I only have 10 minutes to write. WELLL!!!!
So this week was good (and wet) and we have some new investigators and families that don`t come to church. Probably cuz we weren`t teaching about church good or teaching with members. But we´re working on that in companion study and we have a schedule with the members so that`s good. And a meeting with the presidents of the ramas. So it`s all good!
Had a cool experience finding a family. So this town of Santa Fe that I mentioned earlier, well I wanna find some more investigators over there because 1. there`s some less actives that need more support over there 2. they`re all Catholics and I can`t stand to see la gran apostasía in control over the whole town. So we were working over there with a Zone Leader, and we decided to help this couple with the bags they had. And we went up on this hill (which is already on this mountain. It`s high up. It`s green and beautiful. Gotta take pics someday) where they live and then taught them a short lesson on families and the Gospel. Then we set everything up and then their son, Edgar get`s this panicked look on his face and grabs his mom`s hands. Says he`s gonna die. Then he falls of his stool and goes into these spasms. His dad his holding him and his mom too. They explain that he has a heart problem. His eyes are bulging and his breath is ragged and drooling. They´re all calm and I´m standing there thinking that he´s gonna die. So we tell them that we have to power to give blessings and they said we could give him a blessing. So Elder Lamprecth (or somethin, I can´t remember the Zone Leader´s name) gives the blessing with us participating. And during the blessing Edgar´s spasms lessen, his breathing returns to normal, and by the end he´s pretty peaceful. I´m like wooooow. Maybe it was just coincidence, maybe he was gonna be fine at that time anyway, but I felt like I was seeing the power of God in the works. And so really, my prayers to help somebody and to have the faith to do healings was answered in my eyes. So I walked away just... well kinda like I said. wooooooow.
And it doesn´t feel like Christmas here. But I like singing Mister Grinch anyway. And Another Brick in The Wall by Pink Floyd. That´s what I think of here in Christmas time.
But hey, my time is up, I must go, I must do, the things the Lord commands, so l´ll be callin ya guys Friday yeah? Love ya all, hope you´re doin better than a tickle me Elmo at Wal Mart, and Iiiiiiiii´llllll beee hoooome for Chriiisstmaaaas, if only by Skyyyyyyyppeee.
