Hola todos!
Como están? todo bien? que bueno :) debería escribir este correo en español? nah... no quiero hacerlo :)
Well,
here I am in Anahuac, there are TONS of mosquitoes here but don't worry
mom, I don't have any repellent so I can't use any and I don't know
where to buy some so ya... I am getting used to having large itchy lumps
all over my body ;) don't worry it's not that bad :)
Well there is a lot of stuff going on here in this
little branch and we have a lot of work to do but it is great, walking
through the lodo (swampy areas, or in other words, all the streets) and
dodging charcos (puddles). There are some really great people here, a
recent convert who reminds me of Gomer from the Andy Griffith Show and
the Branch President and his family are great :) I get along really well
with Elder Escobar and we are working here but he does like to spend a
little time more than necessary in the houses of members so I'm going to
see if I can get that little habit out of him, but he likes to work and
is a good teacher and all is going well. I already gave a talk here in
the branch and I didn't feel like it went very well but like a good
companion he told me it wasn't too bad so I guess it was alright, I had a
list of scriptures I was going to share but I left it at the house so
that might have been part of why it didn't go so well but whatever I
will be fine :) I have some pictures I want to send you all but this
cyber doesn't have a place to put and sd card so I can't send them
right now.
We had a couple run ins with some JW's or testigos
as they are called here, we were teaching one and he basically said to
us "well you guys are still young, you can still be forgiven and join
the true church" ha ha it was pretty funny to me :)
Some things that I have eaten here that are
interesting, Moronga and Ceviche. I ate Moronga in the other area but I
forgot to tell you about it, want to know what it is? :) well even if
you don't I am going to tell you :) it's cooked pig blood! how crazy is
that? who even came up with that is my question... it really isn't that
bad, with a little salsa and a tortilla it is quite enjoyable :) and the
Ceviche is just raw fish in lime juice I think they had that in
Charles' mission too...
Hey Lauren I forgot to tell you something, I met an
Elder Guzman, well he isn't Elder anymore but he was in your mission and
knows you :) He is the grandson of the landlady from my first area, I
was going to tell you earlier but I kept forgetting... but isn't that
crazy!? :)
Well I love you all and I hope you have a good week :)
-Elder Sampson
