Monday, funny stories. we went to eat at a members house in my comps old area, and we ran into some elders in our zone. I was talking with the gringo and my comp with the latino, and we are in the middle of our convo, and he says, does she have hair on her lip. hahahahah yes elder, I'm pretty sure they all do. he's the best. AND THEN. We were told that we could get to our area in a different way than usual, so we decided to try it. yeah, we got real lost. like, the only place in the middle of no where, was a psych ward. I almost peed my pants. it was freakin scary. The guard at the gate was like, what can I help you with, I was like call us a taxi and don't open that gate. hahaha a doctor came out with some gross stuff on a tray, and fed it to the dogs. I almost had to be amitted in there. I was freakin out. and the only thing they can say is, it's dangerous here. ok thanks....
Tuesday we had divisons again, they try to have them once every transfer. I had Hna Salas again, but she came to Concepcion. I was so nervous, I don't know why, she was like, chill, I'm not here to grade you. but that's what they do when we do divisions. I'm not stupid. haha but she gave a lot of great advice, and said that I'm improving a bunch on my espaƱol and that I'm a hard worker, and have a strong testimony. well ok, thanks haha
Come to find out, one family in our ward went through the temple with a missionary named WILL SHARP!!!!!! the Vanegas Castro family, we were looking at photos and I was like HEY THATS ELDER SHARP. and they were like, yup it is. and I was like, yup I know him. cool hu.
Elder Ellsworth, our district leader called one night like 5 times and the last time, he says, sorry to molest you.. hahahahah molestar is spanish is to bother or bug. he was thinking in spanish but spoke in english. its hard. hahahah
We went and visited Claudia F
riday. I was dying. her family and her are sooo funny. she told the story about my hairy legs to her sons and she was like, it was like a cactus. hahaha
Did you know that the schooling here is less than the states and costs less. yeah, im gonna look into that. then we ate pizza with them, and my comp broke her tooth. it was homemade so it was a little crispy. i enjoyed it. haha
We went to visit Xiomara an investigator but she wasn't there so we visited with one of her sons, he happens to be a member. he is learning english so he made me pray in english. I started in spanish but he was like no, english. so I did, and I said, "por favor. crap please". and "salud, uhhh health". hahaha cause I havent prayed in english for about 5 months sooo its a little weird. haha and then my comp had to use the bathroom... and their bathroom had some problems, she spent 30 mins trying to flush her poo down the toilet and all we could do was laugh, now everytime he sees her, he's like, you're the one who clogged my toilet with poop. hahahaha. she was like, guys I have a problem in here.... hahaha I was dying.
Brother Lee, the gringo in our ward died. He was super sick so it was a good thing, but to help Hna Lee out, we bathed her dogs. I loved it. haha
THE DAD OF THE BISHOP CAME TO CHURCH YESTERDAY!!!!!!! he was suppose to get baptized yesterday, but never came to church. and yesterday he came, so he has 2 left, then he will be baptized. the bishop said that this month it will happen, cause our testimonies have been powerful to him. its the spirit. always.
Welp, I love you all. and I miss you all. and American food.
Thanks mother for always making us keep our house and rooms clean. I know why you do it, cause if not, it would be nasty. honestly I HAVE THE BEST MOM EVER.
THE CHURCH IS TRUE.

Hey, this is Will Sharp. That totally made my day to hear about the Vanegas Castro family. I would totally love to have their address or email! I saw the photo of them a couple of weeks ago, and for the life of me, I remembered the experience, but couldn't remember their names. I was going to look back through my journal, but didn't yet. I'm pretty sure that was the first eternal sealing that I ever witnessed and it was super spiritual! Anyway, my email is willsharp888@hotmail.com
