Hello family and friends! This week was a weird one. The weather was strange. We had freezing rain early on in the week. I took my bike in to get fixed and they gave me a loner bike to use while the were fixing it. The bike had no traction! Ha the roads were complete ice and we were riding allday. I took a good spill the first corner I took. And I broke my leg. Ha ha just kidding. But it did feel good to fall. I havnt taken a good fall for a while. It felt like I was write at home except for the fact I didn’t break anything. I tried to fall more throughout the day. It’s the one exciting thing that happens to you out here ha ha.
Sky sky! That stinks you broke your leg. I hope it gets better! I hear if you shine some red light on it, it will heal. Ha ha. Grapje Grapje!!
well on Sunday Ramon got the preistood! It was super good for him. We have been working with Bernedetta a lot lately. She is on track for baptism on feb 20.
Oh yeah. This week we went to work in Emmen. It is a town an hour bus ride away. It was just barely closed so we are in charge of it now. We met with a really cool man. He smokes smokes smokes and wants to stop but its hard. Everybody and there mom and their grandma and grandkids smokes out here. So stupid. Ive never met anyone who has smoked say they didn’t want to quit. He was awesome. We are going over on sat. then we went to our next appointment in emmen. This 7 foot tall black American who loves football and wants the missionaries over just so he can kick back and speak his own language and make fun of the dutch people he sais. He was super rad. He made us this giant meal ribs chicken coke nachos. Super fun. His family is amazing too. He moved from mannhatten t Groningen to play basketball professionall. But now he is a English teacher. We have to find a way to get him more interested in the gospel.
Its to bad to hear about the missionaries in Armania.
Well ive lost 4 kilos in the past two weeks. Ive been super stressed. And a little bit sick. I cant get over it. Especially when I cant get any sleep. The roosters don’t give up in the morning and my comp wakes me up everytime he gets out of bed at 6 oclock. We are supposed to get up at 630. Its frustrating. But ive never been so patient in my life. I think im a little too patient.
Well the work is moving. We reactivated a family just recently. They come to church everysunday now.
Morg for the language I would suggest taking a notepad wherever you go and when you don’t know a word write it down then in language study look it up and memorize it. Then try and look for it when you hear people talk. Also read outloud out of the book of mormon. And syl! Ty how is it going? Do you have my new address? Havnt heard from you In awhile.
Well till next week. Ps im going to try and make my emails more detailed about the work from here on out. Rich chan chris how was aspen ahh so jealouse . shout out to shane finch! You’re a stud man. Ok well I got to go .3-p / elder RRRobert ( the 3 rrrs is for the rolling effect. People cant say r around here)
