Dear Mom and Dad,
Wow, that’s really cool about all the
stuff going on back home with nose surgery, root canal, chickens, marriages,
and baby and Kingsburg! Sounds like a really fun week. By the way, good luck
beating my score on Kingsburg. Yo soy lo mejor! y nunca perderé.
Well this week has been very
interesting. So first off, right after I got done writing you guys last week I
got a call from president and he told me two things. One, that I would not be
getting a mini-missionary, but an Elder R from Guatemala. What happened was
that they were going to send Elder R to be with Elder Le, but they had already
been comps and they did not get along. Anyway Elder Le is a good friend of mine
and so I was pretty nervous to get Elder R. But we are working things out.
Then the other thing the mission
president told me is that this week he and the Stake President here in Herrera
were going to go out on visits with me. So I was kind of freaking out about
that. But this Wednesday it went really well. We visited M and she was super
happy and impressed that they came to her house. She made a comment at one
point that they should be staying in fancy hotels and stuff, but that they came
to her humble house!
We also went by the M family’s house and
they shared their testimonies with us. Wow was it powerful! They are recent
converts and the mom’s testimony made me cry it was so sweet and genuine. Anyway,
we had a few other lessons with them, which also went very well.
But yeah, it was a great week and we are
working hard. Sorry I can’t write much.
Love,
Elder Stark
