Well today I woke up
and decided to start celebrating my birthday. I just dont want to be too
distracted tomorrow. I opened the gifts and I am very grateful for
them. Thank you! Especially for the razors. I can change mine a little
more often now. The tie is a really nice tie as well. I like how there
is a scripture on it. That is really cool. Also thank you for the flag. I
will be hanging that in a very special place in my house later today.
Thank you so much though. The presents were great. And the cutouts that
you made of yourselves were also cool. I have some pictures that I will
send you. Thank you for everything. I think Im gonna make the cake on
thursday for our district meeting. It is Elder Moores birthday on the
9th so we will celebrate together. Today Im hoping to eat in a nice
place like chilis today for lunch.
Well we also had an amazing week last week. We had 2
more baptisms this week. You will be able to see in the pictures from
the baptisms, that they are the same people that went to the temple with
us a few weeks ago. They were 2 men. Marco and Juan Carlos. The both
have girlfriends that are members of the church. They are both 2 of the
coolest people I have baptized so far. They are actually like my
friends. It was really cool teaching them. Yesterday we went to teach
Marco and we ended up talking the whole time about other stuff like
school and life. Im glad that Im comforatable enough in spanish to have
friends in spanish now haha. But Juan Carlos speaks english too so he
has been even more of a freind to me. He has had some tough times
lately. He was going to get baptized on the 24th of november but he said
he had an answer to a prayer last week and needed to be baptized
sooner. So we did it last week. He was all ready and everything. It was a
cool experience.
On saturday morning we went and served with a bunch
of other misisonaries. I chopped down a field of 6ft weeds all on my
own. It was a tough job, but a goodtime with my machete. after that I
molded a brick stove with mud. Elder Tarver and I made that stove look
pretty. It was a cool service experience because the family that we did
it for is one of the poorest that Ive seen here. and they werent home
when we did it. So it was a suprise for them when they got home to their
new stove and clean yard. It felt good to serve like that. Missionary
work is like that as well. Anyways I am a very happy person these days
out here in the mission. Thank you for all of the support that you have
given me and especially the love for my birthday. I love you so much
family!
Love Elder Comstock
