So here in Latin America, its not just Easter, it's the
Holy Week, or Semana Santa. It's pretty cool to see how rich the culture
is here. But yeah, it's a week were the Catholics do a lot of cool public
activities and they do some little representations and stuff. To
everyone else its just spring break. But yeah, it hurt and helped us
this week. The people that didn´t go to the beach listened to us pretty
much everyday, but more than half of our investigators left. But we
still made something out of nothing and made it an excellent week with
14 lessons with member. Woo Hoo
In other news, things are going
great with my companion. He´s a really great guy. We got a really great
reference this week. We taught him the restoration and he asked us when
can he be baptized. I love it when they ask that. It doesn´t really
happen all that often, but I´m grateful that the Lord loves us and is
taking control. We are very blessed, even though sometimes I wonder if
we are worthy of all of these blessings.
I hit 21 months in the
mission on Friday. Thursday I´ll be turning 21 years old. Weird, huh. My
companion keeps telling me that we should throw a party. I think that
it's just a big waste. I´ll probably just buy some strawberries and make
some smoothies. Yummy.
Today we´re going to paint Easter eggs!
I´m pretty excited because its something other than soccer! Wooooo
Hoooo! Easter rocks! And this weekend is General Conference! I´m so
stoked!
Well guys, life is going really really great. I´m
working hard and I´m not baggy, even though I´m the oldest elder in the
zone and everyone reminds me all the time. I know that Jesus died so
that we can change. So don´t wallow in your sins and make excuses. Make
changes and be like He is.
Love you all.
Elder Hansen
