Hey
Guys!
How's life? Good?
Today I got a couple questions from Scorpion, the living legend, so let's see
what he's gotta say.
1. What funny thing
has happened to you recently?
I don't know if you
guys heard about the whole end of the world thing, but supposedly the end of
the world was gonna happen July 29th. My companion and I have been laughing
about that all week.
2. What disappointing
thing has happened to you recently?
We invited a lot of
people to be baptized this week, but no one accepted. That was fairly
disappointing.
3. Did you ever see
Hermana Bertha on the mission before she went home? Where was it and how did it
feel to see someone from home?
I saw Hermana Bertha
one time, early on in my mission. i don't remember if i was still in my
training (I think so, because I remember that she commented on my Spanish) but
it was pretty cool to see someone from home. We never really talked too much
before the mission, but it was cool to find someone who knows where I come
from.
4. What is your
favorite thing to eat these days?
I eat anything and
everything. I don't care if it's cow stomach or pig face, I'll eat it, and I'll
think it tasted good. (I've eaten both while I've been here)
If it's edible, I like
it. One of my favorite foods is mojarra, which is fried fish (including the
head)
5. What is the
strangest thing you've eaten on your mission so far?
Food doesn't seem
strange to me anymore. I suppose for all you Americans that revolcado would be
strange (that is a stew made of pig face, brains, and kidney) but I don't know
what else would be strange.
6. What are the
members like in your area? Are they helping with the work? Have any of them
adopted you?
Well, there's the
Casasola Family. They give us a LOT of food, but it's not like they adopted us,
it’s more like having a good friend. The members are pretty cool, and they
don't help too much, but whatever they can do, they do it.
7. Are there any
interesting historical places in your area? If so, what is it and why is it
famous?
There are no famous
historical sites in my area. There is Barrio Quintanal and the Joya, which are
famous for being MS territory (a gang).
8. What do you hear
about the Olympics in Guatemala? DO they send athletes and are they excited to
watch?
The Olympics are this
year???? I haven't heard anything...
I hope that gives you
a couple of insights into my current life. Gotta go right now, but I'll try to
include a more spiritual thought the next week! LUVYUBAI
