Hey mom Dad and everyone,
Man thanks for the updates haha. Man I can’t believe that so
much is going on with out me. Seven more months hahaha. Tell the bishop to open
up a spot on the agenda. Man but it’s been a very difficult week. So when we
got back from the temple on Monday I talked my branch pres into getting
together the money to go again. So on Monday it started out good. Tuesday we
talked to a guy with a 35 passenger bus so that we could go. Cause there was a
few people who helped with getting stuff ready but didn’t end up going so I
wanted them to go. So we talked to the guy and told us 4000 limps 200 bucks. So
I was going to put 1500 and the branch pres also. But we couldn’t get any money
together. So we left it just at 3000 limps and we were going to get a smaller
bus on Friday but then we were going to have to choose 15 people to go and we
could justify leaving people out so instead of making people mad at us or at
the church we didn’t go. I was a big shame I wanted to go sooooooo bad.
The whole week we were trying to go with the Nunez family
but we couldn’t get a hold of them. Then on Friday we finally got to talk to Miriam
and all she had to say were complaints about how the food was organized for the
temple and all kinds of stuff that had happened. So we had to explain some
stuff to her but she did like the actual temple which was good. So on Saturday
we went back just to invite her to church and her son in law answered the door
and told us that she wasn’t there. And I moved myself and I saw her run into
another room. I almost asked her son in law if he knew that lying was a sin
haha. But I didn’t haha. On Sunday we went over to see if she was going to go
to church and she was still in her night gown making tortilla and was making up
a bunch of excuses, so it looks like we are going to have to drop her it was
really bad.
Then that night we went with Miguel Gallardo. He is the principal
of a school in San Lorenzo and is just way to busy. And basically explained to
us that he was too busy to be able to listen to us for right now. So basically every
one of our main investigators have fallen through this weekend. It was really difficult
but it had to be done with both.
But with Miguel there is hope still he just needs to be less
busy. So right now with my last 2 weeks in this area we are starting from
basically scratch. So will see. I imagine that Elder Mendoza after this change
will be training as well so I’ll be having a grandson. I have to get the area
ready for him so he has a good experience here in his 1st area haha.
This week was a difficult week. So hopefully we can pull
things together. I have the faith that we can do it. Man I can’t wait for changes
hahaha. Love you guys tell everyone that I'm doing great and I say hi to all of
them
Elder Spencer Olsen
we got a little lost hahaha
This is my Branch Pres. youngest son his name is Christian i call him the muppet
This is my Zone in San Lorenzo
This is my Elders Quorum Pres. They told him that he could whiten his teeth with charcoal. So he did it. I told him he looked like he was dressing up like a clown to go sing to the people on the buses for money.
People do that here
This is Elder Lopez. He is waiting for his visa to mexico. He is a really cool kid
This is the new Suyapa, the Catholic Church that the temple was going to cover up haha
So our Church had chosen a site for the new Temple and had the ground breaking ceremony. Then there were problems that the Catholic Church wasn't happy that our temple was right by their new Church. So the Church Leaders decided to move locations to keep peace.
ironing board hahaha
I love to see what is on his desk!
