welll i got a call on saturday, and it looks like i'm leaving vicente noble.. don't know where i'm going, but i gotta pack a bag... *i bought an expensive blue rock called larimar.. i think it's dum, but everyone would have been mad at me if i had lived in barahona for like 5 months without buying any *we went to the capital aGain.. this time to get some legal stuff done since i'm still an illegal imagrant here *we had a movie night again, everyone watched the christmas carol while we made a ton of popcorn.. we used a lot of margarine.. yk.. since it's the healthiest option *we had a young womens activity where they went and played sardines around the church grounds, while we made a soggy cake *we had our christmas zone conference, and we learned a lot of really important things, and i as always have lotsss to work on *we did a gift exchange, and i got a little ukulele thingy, but then the hermana that was sitting next to me wanted to trade, and i still don't know any spanish so apparently we traded.. now i have headphones *then my comp was sick again, so we went on another exchange in the other elders area it was a pretty eventful week actually, we had lot of abnormal things happen with all the meetings and weird stuff like that.. buttt we didn't get a lot of actual missionary work done, because of sickness and stuff like that.. it will be good to be in a new place where we'll be able to leave the house more and do some more work.. sooo we'll see where i go.. anyways, love you guys, have a great week! alma 31: 33-35 Wilt thou grant unto them that they may have strength, that they may bear their afflictions which shall come upon them because of the iniquities of this people. O Lord, wilt thou grant unto us that we may have success in bringing them again unto thee in Christ. Behold, O Lord, their souls are precious, and many of them are our brethren; therefore, give unto us, O Lord, power and wisdom that we may bring these, our brethren, again unto thee.

vroooom vroom.. *there's an amazon store in my area now.. which means i can go in there and order things from amazon, and it will ship to the store.. it costs a little extra and everything, but my shoes are a bit holy.. so i got some new ones.. we'll see when they actually decide to show up *also on monday, i saw on somebody's story from san cristobal, that there had been some kind of huge explosion.. a ton of people hurt.. killed.. it took out 3 buildings completely.. and damaged a ton of other buildings too.. *so that was super random.. i had lived in cambita before, which is technically part of san cristobal.. it's about 20 min away, but i've been to san cristobal many times before, since i lived over there for 6 months *but anyways, one of the other nights, we were teaching this lady, and going over the plan of salvation, or the plan of heavenly father (it's now called) and we asked her why she thinks we are here on the earth.. and she kinda jokingl...

thank goodness to elder helquist here who could confirm that L was the correct number... *welll.. it's been an interesting week for sure *we've stayed at home about half of the days because of sickness *but for the first time in my mission, it's not me who's sick *my comp has some kind of ameba parasite *i won't go into the details of what that actually means (cuz i have no idea) but the symptoms are pretty weird *but we weren't really sure what was going on for a while, and we had to go to the hospital like 3 or 4 times to get all of the tests and everything done for them to be sure *but he's been doing better for the last couple days, and he got a tonnn of medicine *he has two types of pills.. one he has to take every 12 hours for 7 days.. the other he has to take once every day for the next month *and then the last one is a kind of little liquid stuff that he says doesn't really have much flavor, it's just kinda oily *anyways tho, h...

weeee had transfers.. said goodbye to canada boy, and i have received a new comp.. we got a call on tuesday before transfers, and pres told me i was gonna be training again.. i thought it would be a gringo, cuz usually there are more gringos that come in at this time of year than latinos.. buttt at these transfers there was only one gringo elder that came in.. sooo i got elder Ibargüen.. he's from panama, so he speaks spanish, and he was studying english before the mission so he knows a little.. annnd he was called to speak haitian creole.. which is a littttle awkward not gonna lie, cuz i definitely don't be speaking such language.. cuzzz i wanted to focus on mastering spanish (which i am still far from).. and the other thing, is that there aren't any haitain speaking wards or even branches in our mission.. annnd because of that, there are no sacrament meetings in haitain.. sooo i haven't put any emphasis in teaching in creole, because they n...
