OLA MINHA FAMILIA!!!!!!!!!!!! Feb 18,2013
I love you all so much! hope everyone had a sick week! I’m
still here in Lubango for at least two more weeks. turns out its next transfer
that is 5 weeks. So I’m still here. But I could leave. I have no idea!!!
First before I forget to answer questions,,, yes I saw and
met Elder Tingey, he’s a super cool kid! Sorry I didn’t get a picture totally
forgot about that.
The hamburgers cost about 5 bucks, but are huge and disgusting
and amazing. love them come with eggs, ham, corn, cheese, everything,. Their
super good.
The resort place we went to is just outside of Lubango it’s
called lululaluka ya try pronouncing that one ahha its super cool though they
have huts you can rent like a hotel that have legit handmade thatched roofs,
but state of the art insides. Super expensive but really beautiful.-
So anyway this week was good!! I’m sorry I don’t really
have any sweet spiritual experiences to share, but it was a good week. ill
share some of the funny or weird or crazy stuff that happened.
Andre- 70 year old toothless guy in Lubango lives in the
middle of the barrio, super poor and all that, and WORKS FOR A COMPANY FROM
ARIZONA!!! hahah he sells natural medicine for this company called Forever
living products. (* ok a small world
thing here Colin’s cousin Kevin works for Forever Living products in Scottsdale
AZ) They do like aloe vera medicine and stuff like that. and he sells their
stuff to a certain hospital and teaches classes how to use it ahahahhaha so so
funny. The company owner is named rick or Rex Maughan or something like that. I
thought at first it was the isagenix company or something but it’s different . Anyways,
super super funny and random! haha
~second cool or funny thing, its caterpillar season, so
they sell them fried and roasted allllll over the street here in like a onion
sauce,, and I couldn’t resist any more, I HAD to try one. I bartered with the
lady to give me a free try ad if I liked it I would buy more, everyone kept
saying it tastes like meat it tastes like meat, and I was like alright it can’t
be too bad. I was expecting a crunch when I bit down and instead I got a squirt
of nasty guts in my mouth that tasted like what I used to clean out of toilets when
I worked for rainforest. it was soooo gross ahahahahahaa lets just say I almost
ralphed on the side of the road. but to give you alll the full experience, I
had elder B. take a video, so enjoy!
The other cool thing was that ONE just ONE of my packages
got to Luanda! I don’t know who’s it is if it’s your’s mom, meg’s, or tori’s,
but I don’t care as long as I get it, so don’t give up I have faith the there
two will get here too now! That brightened up a very busy work week for me:)
The rest of the week was like I said really busy. we got
some records in our numbers so that was really good, and we found tons of new
people because we dropped a ton last week who just weren’t allowing themselves
or wanting to progress, but my spirits are high, I think I’ll have at least one
more transfer here, then it will be just one more year and I don’t care where I
go haahh
10 months today!! crazy how fast it’s going. I can’t believe
that next transfer will end right about close to my hump day! nuts!!!!
Anyway that’s all for this week! I’m sorry no cool
missionary stuff, but I hope the story and pictures will give you all good
laughs. I love you all a ton! keep on keeping on and know I’m praying for each
and every one of you! loves from Africa!!!!
