Not-so-weekly report of a Guy with a Pen

I know I should be more exciting with my subjects, but when the week is just the same as the last with a couple of changes its hard to come up with something more. This week we walked until our shoes fell off. I did go to the Hospital this week. But not for me, I was accompanying an elder that has a problem with his leg and need to get an examination. It was fun to go there and not be the one dying. I also found a sister from Thatcher. It was cool. But yeah that is about it and I am running out of time. Love you all and hope you have a great week. 

Love E' Whetten.

Not-so-weekly report of the local Snow man

This week was an interesting week. A muslam threw a rock at us for saying Hi, we did 2 different service projects each including cleaning out the back storage area and one finding a dead, petrified rat, and not to mention the countless spiders that always accompany these sorts of things. But other then the incredible heat it was a good week. We had little to no leccions this week which forced us to the streets to talk to the random passer by, or to the houses to ask for water. So in the end we made it by. WE are finding quite a few people to teach but the Most exciting one is Estefania who will be baptized the day after Christmas, best present ever. SO that's the report. Oh and I have been eating lots of Carrots. Love you all and hope you have a wonderful week.

Not-SO-Weekly report of ME!

SO I got on late, I don't have much time and my comp is pushing me out the door but I wanted to share an experience I had today MY comp and I were late tothe secion in the temple and we didn't want to make our "party" have to wait for us so we decided to stay out and just explore, and remember, anyways we found an hermana with her daughter that was preparing to go on the mission in Argentina, so we talked to them for a while. They were really cool. And we helped them take picture in front of the temple, the whole shabang. SO when my comp was taking the picture a lady asked me if she could go in with jeans. I said yeah and she went in and sat down, and what I now recognize as the spirit told me to go and talk to her. I ignored it and we went to buy some things and when we got back to the temple she was still there and I again received the revelation to talk to her, but all the other elders were there, so again I ignored it. In the end when we were about to leave I decided to go over and talk to her with E' Kelsh and so we went over and started to talk to her and she told us her whole story. She is membro and has made some bad decisions, she married a guy that is an ex communicated member that "would change" but it hasn't happened and she is getting drug down, and just different things, but the missionarys are helping her. The spirit was super strong, we said a prayer juntos and it was super cool. She goes home tomorrow and she said that she will go home mas tranquilo. It was cool, and I am glad that I was there and listened to the spirit. It was really a good week.

Not-So-Weekly report on the Toilet-paper crisis

Well to sum it all up we are all out of toilet-paper and money, so at this time anything goes, mostly paper towels, that is the report.

This week was a good week. Nothing happened but two of our investigators came to church this Sunday.It was super cool. I sat in the middle of them and explained the sacrament and all to them while it was going on, the things we do, the things we remember and all that good stuff. It was cool, This sector is awesome, but kinda big, we have to walk alot but hey such is life on the mish. The people here are so nice, I am still amazed that we are given water wherever we go. But not much else, I love you all and hope you have a great thanksgiving with lots of pie and stuff. Love you.

Not-So-Weekly Report of an Oak in a Lemon Tree

It was a good week, we have been working like crazy. we also moved houses, which was crazy in and of itself. I still can't believe that we all fit in the apartment. There are 6 of us and 2 of my companions don't have a bed. We are squished but all alive. I have learned how to be very squishy in the past 2 houses. And I have found some trick to living with others in such small spaces. Thanks mission. Other then that the week is pretty normal, as normal as it can get on the mission. The problem is that I left my planner in the house and I don't have a very good memory. There was a Baptism though. Not one of mine, but someone I taught before, so It was super cool to got to. But yeah, that was my week. At least I think. Love you all and hope you have the best week in the world. 

Love, E' Whetten

Not so Weekly Report from a Man

A man whose face got slightly smashed in by a cake. But hey, a man is a man. So for my birthday my comps did a family home evening with some members and some recent converts, they thought that it was a suprize that they brought out a cake and started singing, but its not like they were very sneaky, but hey it was fun. E' White make Cinnamon twists, which are like Cinnamon rolls but twisted and with a different type of dough. It was good. The Hna also gave me a cake of a thousand leafs, it was really good. Also a tradition they have here is to smash the persons face into the cake, which hurt because the cake was hard so it was like pounding my face into the table, but hey cake is cake and this cake was amazing. Then the four missionaries and the recent converts had to squeeze into a car. It was the two RC in front and the 4 Missionaries  in back. I was on top, with my head and legs hanging out the window, I don't have pics or I would send them but it was awesome. We also shouted Hola to everyone we passed, missionary work in steroids. So that was fun. 

On a sadder note, a very beloved man died in the mish, and we went to the funeral, the saddest thing of all is the hopelessness of the family, who aren't members, or aren't active. This Gospel is amazing, and I am so glad to be a part of it. There is so much hope and joy that is linked to this knowledge that we have there the grave has no stink. I Love that knowledge and I love you all and hope the best. Hope your week is wonderful.

Love E' Whetten
