HI!
It is really fun training and reliving the greenie
experience through your son those really were the best of times! Not knowing
what anyone is saying everyone calling you farang eating songtam for the first
time eating all the hot crazy food that for some reason your trainer loves ;)
having constant diarrhea getting over jet lag falling asleep whenever you’re
sitting for more than 20 mins, calling people names when you’re trying to
compliment them having members tease you and you don’t know what’s going on its
so much fun! Elder Hill is handling it like a champ he just wants to take on
the world and he is so good he volunteered to share the spiritual thought at
his very first FHE. I had to help him out a bit but that is crazy there was no
way I was brave enough to do that on my first time. He is also way funny and he
happens to be crazy good at martial arts like Elder Omer but he knows Hun Ga
which is like Shaolin monk craziness, he was also an EMT and a flabotamist (no
idea how to spell that! someone that draws blood) he has the funniest stories
from the hospital and like different calls he has had to go on! he had me in
stitches I was crying I was laughing so hard! Stuff like a guy calling his neck
tumor Kathy and then when they chuckled at that the guy was like "you
think my cancer is funny?!" at which point both Elder Hill and the surgeon
had to leave the room cause they were laughing so hard! Another couple
highlights were I kicked the dog that chases us all the time he tries to get us
like every day and I kicked him HARD right on the nose and everything. Another
was we were teaching Chompo at her house which is kinda in mountain jungle and
while we were teaching a big frog jumped on my companion 555 he freaked and then
not 30 seconds later Chompo's cat came running in with a big rat in its mouth
and it was still alive and the cat ran right in the room and dropped the rat
and then everyone freaked. Chompo and her mom and the sister that was helping
us all screamed, haha. When we got over our fright we laughed and laughed!
Besides all the fun we are having we are really working with
the youth a lot and trying to apply the Work of Salvation. Elder Hill is really
gung ho and willing to do or try just about anything except eat the hot food I
give him. It is really great having so many new ideas and things to try there
is no one perfect way to do missionary work if there was we would all be doing
it.
Hey Mikaela I saw you have got
a new mission pres Alan J Baker that is gonna be so sweet I’m so stoked for
you. That’s so sweet that the Brad and Rachael came up to visit I bet you all
had a blast!!!
Love you Guys!!!
