First off, I must address a few issues. Chase and Lauren are going to
Disneyland?? To clarify, I am not upset about this, just that this officially
certifies that we NEED to go to Disneyland Christmas of 2013, we NEED to go ha ha.
Moving on.
That’s way legit that Mothers day was so good for ya mom, that’s
how it should be and I’m stoked that you enjoyed it so much :) Extra love
one week later :) And dad, how did all your crazy New York meetings go?
Hope not too bad ha ha.
Now, about me. I realized that last week I forgot to
mention my comp. His name is Elder Gonzalez and he’s from Mexico City,
Mexico. He’s pretty cool and we get along pretty well. Everything
is going pretty smooth :) As for us, I know you’re also worrying about
investigators. Well, the problem is that we don’t really have anybody
positive ha ha. But we have people that could become positive. I’ll give you a little rundown on them.
First off, there’s a lady named Johanna. Her daughter got baptized
in March and she’s investigating too. She’s got her and another daughter
that are baptism age. She’s afraid to go to a church because she knows
that she’ll have to change and give up a lot of things. The thing she
really lacks is just to pray and ask if it’s true. She’s cool though.
Next is Edvin. He has pretty much the same problem as Johanna. He
just needs to pray, he already knows what the answer will be but yeah. He
also studies in the weekends in Xela so he’d have to attend there so that’s a
problem. He smokes too, but we did a deal this week that for every cigarette
he doesn’t smoke between last Thursday and tomorrow I have to eat a Jocosh.
(also known as a fried ant) GROSSSS! So far I’m having to eat 11 tomorrow
so.... yeah. Not excited about that (except for the fact that he’s hardly
smoked!) There’s also a guy named Ovidio. He was living in Utah before
and attending there ("Because there was no other church") he told us
ha ha. But he also needs to pray, that’s really what everybody needs to do ha ha.
Apart from them, there’s a couple others but I’ll keep it for another
week ;) We’ll see what happens with them :)
But, there were a few interesting happenings this week.
First off, we decided that the branch needs some fire, so we’re starting
to have branch council next week with all the leaders of the branch to get
ourselves more organized and the members more involved in the work. So we’ll
see how that goes. Also, I had my first door slammed in my face this
week, 2 of them in fact!! Also, I tried 1 jocosh, so every ones favorite Elder
Westenskow has officially eaten a fried ant. Hooray for me! It wasn’t
gross, it tasted fine just the thought of eating an ant was gross ha ha.
Also, this week on Friday we go to Huehue to have a conference and they’re
going to bring pouch so I should get the birthday package there! We really
just need new investigators but we had another week of 40 contacts and wer’e
waiting for the blessings from that ha ha.
LOVE YOU ALL!! Wishing you the
best!
-Elder Westenskow
