Best man and a Baby - African style

mom,
psh dont worry it is nothing. it is way better now. yes i remember when i cut my head open and went boating still. i am fine and even got the blood stain out of my argentina jersey.
i am gettng sick of washing my shirts by hand. they get so dirty in the taxi. next package next year i will need some shirts and pants probably. just to let your prepare. dont worry i will make it til next year easy.
wow i wish it would go down to 60. i have been sweating like crazy.
super p day is on wednesday. interviews are on thursday. so we get two really good meals ths week. i amd starting to get fat from eating so many fms here. the people are so good and so bad. the relief society is rebelling against the contribution rule. they are collecting money for the michells wedding on saturday. i am one of the best men. also one of our investigators named her baby boy spenser. they spelled it wrong but it was really after me. he is really cute.
the work is good and dont worry i am fine and working hard and not thinking about anything but keeping on.
sis wire is taking good care of me and i think she hinted to me and seawright about leaving. she gave only me and him isiah 41:15. so maybe i will conquer mountains soon. ha ha well see in a few weeks.
i cant wait to get your package. thank you so much for being an amazing mother!!!
love

This is Africa.....

Bloggers:
dont worry my eye is doing much better now. it should heal up really nice and only leave a small scar. what a bummer. ha ha
the work has been interesting this week. mostly from the relief society. the president is getting her civil marriage. they get traditional first which is accepted by the church but civil is needed to go to the temple. anyways so our relief society president is getting married this saturday and i have been asked to be one of the best men. so in relief society class yesterday they asked for donations for the wedding. the hand book of instuctions clearly states that this is against the rules. so one sister objects and says it is wrong. the sisters exploded on her. the branch president then ran in to see what the problem was. i quote what he said about the contribution. "this is africa and things are different from the USA." just to give you a perspective of what i am up against everyday. :)
also one of our investigators daughter had a baby boy. she decided to name him cherish spencer folly. yeah after me. i was surprised and honored at the same time. i guess some people actually like me here. ha ha
the work is good and we are plannning for some baptisms in a few weeks. i havent had any for a while. probably since i dont want to bring anyone into a place where they can so easily fall away. owell.
dont worry all is well and i am having thanksgiving on wednesday and interviews on thursday so we are kinda celebrating. i could use a little money to buy some gifts for a few members though. just a thought..
got to go now.
