Well
this week was just as busy as last, in fact I think every week is very busy,
and you know I think that I like being busy. Life is easier when you have
things to do, you don't have time to worry! This week I went on 2 exchanges
where I stayed in the area... do you know how hard it is to plan a day in Belle
Glade with out Creole? Its like trying to push water back in the faucet. But it
made the day fun I used some good old sign language.
We
have been working a lot in a town a little North of Belle Glade named Pahokee,
if anyone can tell me that means in some Indian language that would be nice.
Pahokee is a pretty sketchy place, its a weird cross of backwoods hick and
ghetto thug (we don't walk around with much money in our pockets) but so far
the people have been really nice and have been really accepting. Our biggest
problem is convincing them to drive to Belle Glade.
On
our way to Pahokee one day we decided to take a different route through the
fields and we came across a hidden trailer-park filled with... MEXICAN
FAMILIES!!! And really good families! The kind that go on walks! And the Dads
play soccer with the kids!!! We knocked 6 doors and found 5 families! And the
families all knew each other and when we went back to teach one family with
plans to see the others after, the others saw us and came over! We were
teaching a class! There were 12 of them. So I had some fun!
But
as for other details I went on an exchange with the assistants and learned a
lot about Administering and Ministering, they are different. We did a service
project repairing a deck... the other three missionaries are not so handy, but
they learned. I sure am thankful for the things I learned around the house and
the fact that Dad taught us how to solve problems and work.
I
don't really know what else but I love ya'll!!
Stay
Strong, Push On
