Well... I finished up my time in the city of Rio Sacramento. I had been there
for almost for 4 months. I had a lot of good memories in that area but I'm ready to be
in a new area.
My area now is called Portales and its only like 30 minutes from
my old area..... lol it's all good though. I was told that I was going to an area
called Parral which is 3 hours away but this morning the President called me saying
that there was a change of plans becasue an elder didn't arrive from the ccm (Mexico MTC) and
so my area had been changed but it's all good. I'm happy here and I know that the
lord knows what's best for me.
My last couple of days were way good in Rio Sacramento. I felt good about teaching and my Spanish was clicking and all was
good.
I was eating at KFC and they gave me my food
and it took them like 20 minutes to make it and they gave me a tub of coleslaw and it was like a quater full so I was a little sad about that. And then
all of a sudden when I was eating a chicken leg I bit into something really
hard and I thought there's no way I'm already down to the bone. So I checked in
my mouth and it was a bar of metal and that's when I got really mad. I
thought it took them 20 minutes to make some bad food and they put metal bars in
my chicken! But I quickly came to realize that the bar was my permanent
retainer hahah gotta love that.
We were in a
house and there was a wasp in the house and it was sooooo big this wasp was like
huuuuge and it was flying and came over by us so we started freaking out haha
and we couldn't find it so we were way paranoid and scared... then all of the
sudden we saw the wasp about an inch from this grandpa's hand so I told him
to be careful and he looked down and tried to pick up the wasp and throw it at
us and it stuck to his hand and he couldn't but it was really scary and I can't believe he didn't get stung.
Also one of our members thought was
baptised but it turns out that he wasn't because when he turned 7 years old he really wanted to
get baptised so his parents did a fake one for him and then never
ended up doing a real one. That was a new one on us!
I bore my testimony last Sunday and I wasn't that nervous so that was a nice thing.
My new companion is great. He likes to cook and so he does the cooking and I do the dishes. We are a good team. And he likes to work a lot so that makes me happy. My new apartment is good but I just don't fit in the beds over here. It is very hard, very hot and hard to sleep in these small hard beds. I'm just glad I'm not in some of the areas that get way over a hundred degrees every day during the summer.
Well, that is all for now. Love to all!
Elder Lignell
Not my new companion but I'll send a picture of him soon.
This is a picture of another elder that we did splits with.
