Flying Serpents

1 Ne. 17: 41
And he did straiten them in the wilderness with his rod; for they hardened their hearts, even as ye have; and the Lord straitened them because of their iniquity. He sent fiery flying serpents among them; and after they were bitten he prepared a way that they might be healed; and the labor which they had to perform was to look; and because of the simpleness of the way, or the easiness of it, there were many who perished.

8/2

we don’t play much dodge ball here..but we do play a lot of fuyball! my whole district is spanish...except me and my comp, we are english..guess I’m not going spanish after all! but there are 8 spanish elders to one branch! That’s tells you how crazy the spanish population is here! i speak spanish everyday anyways!

and yes i have heard the "get out of dodge" and let me tell you i know why they say it! its stinky every friday the burn or boil the cows blood which they gather over the week. and they have tons of cattle here! and it is really hott so ya..i know where that phrase comes from!

 but uh...let’s see...this week has been crazy! like a 5 hour drive to dodge! and it is way mega hott here! i can’t believe it! yesterday at 7 the temp was 103! and we don’t have a car also I am on bikes...again! haha! so it is really hott!! haha jake got another motorcycle! that sweet..i mean...o jake i hope he stays safe!

but there has been some stuff going on in dodge, we found a guy on thursday and taught him a first and he accepted a date for the 28th and said he would pray about it! and he said he knows God would tell him it’s true if it is! so that sweet! we are meeting with him again on friday!

then last night we had something cool happen we got a referral from other elders and we bike about 20 min to go find this lady and she wasn’t living at the house we went to anymore! but the guy gave us the address and let me tell you..we were ready to go in because it was hott! but alas we decided to carry on to the house this guy told us about, and when we got there the lady invited us in we said a prayer and I’ll tell you what the spirit was working through us! we just started asking her about previous missionaries and stuff and asked her if she knew it was true and she said yes and then i asked her if she wanted to be baptized and she said yes! so she is coming to church on sunday and will hopefully get baptized the sunday next! cool huh!

any way...no for some weird new..kinda...so my ankle has been hurting since about the beginning of last month. and it hasn’t really been like super bad..but it has been getting there! and i talked to a foot doctor who is in my ward! fancy that! and he looked at it and said that the plate might be ready to come out because a lot of times that causes pain in those places...so i think I’ll talk to sister pfile about it and see what i should do! ha! so that just a little update on me!

also i have another new comp! his name is elder Adviento! he is from hawaii! he is way cool and way chill! him and i get along really well! he has two older sisters that are married and he is the baby! he doesn’t surf but he bogie boards so that cool, but we really don't have much to talk about! ha so I just ask him questions about himself and hawaii all the time because i really want  to go there!

and that really all from me! love ya'll!
