Sept 6 2010

Familia! So saddened to hear about Blaine Pearson. Such a great man, always a great example of a worthy member of the church, that really loved his kids and a passion for soccer. I´ll always remember the memories of playing for him, and his classes during my years in young mens. He´ll be missed but will always be in our hearts, he´s with out a doubt on the other side of the veil preaching the everlasting gospel to those in need. Tell their family that I love them and that they are in my prayers. I´d really like ben´s address, i´m going to write an email now to what it should be, it´s usually just our names. Hit me like a bag of bricks. He was a really good guy. If there is anything I can do for their family let me know.


It´s been a really quick week, i can´t believe how fast time flies. We´re already coming to the end of my 9th transfer. To think i´ll be starting my 10th is scary.... knowing there are 16 in total. Seems like the other day i was walking around with a pounding headache because i couldn´t understand this language, and now i have a hard time remembering english words! I treated myself this week and bought a soccer ball for about 25 bucks. A real nice one that should last for at least 6-8 months. (we play every monday on concrete so keeping the ball nice is a task) but i bought one specificly made for the concrete. We bought one as a zone a few weeks back for like 60 pesos and two weeks later... popped. So i thought i´d buy one that´ll last. We had a great experience this week finding a family. We left a charge to the District President to find a family for us to teach about 3 weeks ago. He called us on tuesday and said he had a family that he met, and they asked if we could pass by their house. We went with Brother Fredes to their house way out in the country in the middle of a peach field to their humble home. There we met Eduardo and Virginia. Two amazing people, in our first lesson we felt the spirit really strong. After we left i felt like i wanted to ask them if they felt differently with us at their house. He got watered up and just said ¨Son hombres puro´s, y nos escuchan. Sentió algo differente, como un fuego en mí pecho.´´ In english ´´ Your pure men, and you listen to us. I felt something different tonight, almost like a fire in my chest.´´ They came to church Sunday, and want to get baptised in the coming weeks. Just the coolest people though! Came to church in shirt and tie and everything! The only shirt and tie that he has haha! There truely are people out there waiting for us. People that you´d never know even existed from where they live. Anyways, the uintah´s bring back memories. Can´t wait to go up and fish, and four wheel up there. So fun! Tell the family hi for me, i sure miss you all and love you all. Anyways love you all! Nathan emailed me and has lost 60 pounds in Rosario! And Austin Bennion is a new zone leader in Hungry! Go Ogden Boys!
