Another week in heaven!

I don`t know if I am even spelling heaven right anymore. Buenas Tardes mamá y otra mi familia también, Alright, alright, alright, so this week was good.  Can`t complain about anything in particular.  Except that none of our investigators attended church this week.  They said it was because of the rain.  That`s no excuse to me.  It`s always raining.  So that was a little upsetting, but we all have little trials to overcome in this life and sometimes it`s simply having patience. haha I set off our fire alarm this week, I was trying to cook empanadas and it took me a second to figure it out haha.  My second time was a lot better.  But our stove is being a little weird and Elder Peña and I don`t want to die.  So I don`t have much for breakfast right now.  But it`s okay our members feed us really well here.  Elder Peña has been in this area for almost 7 and a half months now.  He showed me a photo when he first got into t...

Good afternoon mother and family! Good to hear from you and that the week went well.  I heard that dad got the fridge to start working again it just needed a little hard love.  Janaye sent me a pick of the new fridge looks great.  Congratulations on the new couch it´s funny that the couch will basically be normal by the time I get back.  It´s like when we painted the house before Joe got back.  That reminds me has dad made Dallin repaint the basement yet? haha I´m a little more safe in Colombia to say that now. And no joke the lizard was huge.  They climb trees too.  There was like five in the trees and one started peeing everywhere it was pretty freaky stuff.

Yeah, everyone here hates Trump so it´s just been funny to watch.  I was a little surprised myself, but I don´t worry about politics I actually like myself for that reason. Yeah this week has been great, we have...

Good afternoon mother and Family, Good to hear that things are all normal back home, I was in centro Barranquilla today and was thinking about how weird it is that I am on another continent.  Haha but all is well. For lunch today I had KFC and Mcdonalds.  It was funny because they bought a ton of arepas from the KFC and me and the other gringo in my district were a little surprised by that.  the arepas were really good though so I can´t complain. This week has been fun, we met with our progressing family and also with an investigator named Louis.  When we were talking with Louis we asked him if he knew the church was true and he said that he knew it.  We asked him if he had received the answer in prayer.  He told us no.  So we were a little confused and asked him how he knew.  He told us he knew that our church was true because we were nice and that we were messengers from God.  Although that was nice to hear we continued to tell h...
