Hey folks hows life!
Its great here!
Happy Bday Grandpa Smart and Sam hope you guys have a gr8 day iFeliz Cumpleños!
So bout my email last week and how it took forever to send. It wouldn't send and so we had to leave, but I saved it and sent it when I was with the other elders who didn't email yet. I'm on today early cuz we have to be at a members house at 6, right when we'd be done emailing so we came early.
I thought I would be a Sr comp this week, but it turns out I wasn't. I was with Elder Warren from Logan UT Smithsville or something. Maybe Alyssa and Scott know them. idk and I was also comps with Elder Moore from Colorado (his dad Tom Moore played running back for the U in like the 70´s). Funny thing bout those 2 is that they were in the same district as me in the MTC for almost a month then they left . They were also both comps in the MTC so i know them pretty good. They're pretty funny. El Warren's comp was with El Stott who's the new one and we all stayed at their house. We did some lessons. Taught Enrique who is a 14 yr old teen boy who kinda likes to hang out in the streets. He loves us missionaries and so we actually taught him a lesson while he was doing yard work. We're going to his house Tues. He doesn't really have a direction in life. I think I've seen him smoke b4 so hopefully we can help him. Comp returned Thurs morning like at 2 am from Bahia.
We have some investigators but they do not like to go to church haha. There's Alexis still, we taught him this week. Also Jesus, we have him tomorrow. He has a crazy mullet. He's bout 17 haha. We didn't get to Ailen and her bro and her boyfriend this week. Also, we're teaching Carmen. She couldn't go to church cuz I think she was visiting her boyfriend in prison. Her bf has told her to go to church and follow God! So we think she'll come this week. We went to Laprida, the town bout 1h 15 min away, with the Fee´s and we set 5 new baptismal dates, but none of them showed up to their little lds church that a young married couple have at their house. We taught a lady and her daughter we contacted last time there and she was happy for our message. We taught her for like 2 hrs. She seemed to love our message and everything made sense to her. Also, we taught a family. The mom is a less active, smokes like a chimney. We set bapt dates for her hubby and 2 daughters. We had good success there at Laprida Saturday. We're going Wed this week.
There were 2 weird things we saw this week haha. Saw a guy on his motorcycle crash. We were walking on the side of the road and we were in a part where there's just a lot of road and no stores and stuff. I had my head down and I heard some honking and a crash sound. We think that a guy, in his low or mid 20s, was nipped in the back by a pick up truck. The guy went rolling and sliding on the street, his bike went sliding and the guy that nicked him in his truck went around us on the grass part on the side of the road and just kept driving lol. We were walking against traffic and I saw the truck driver's face and he just took off. The guy on the bike got up and walked his bike over to the side to where we were (we were pretty close, but not in danger close wise, close enough that I could throw a bball to where is bike landed). He walked to us and he was moaning and ughing. He seemed hurt. He was tough bout it. He had some cuts on his hands and I think a good scrape on his left side. Also we're pretty sure he dislocated his shoulder and maybe broke his left collar bone. He was leaning down to the left. Another man that saw it stopped in his car and asked if he should call an ambulance. The bike guy was like, "No no!" I think he wasn't insured yet haha, but he called anyways. We stayed for a lil bit longer then left. It looked like (when he was rolling) just like one of the racing bike crashes on tv, but everything went well haha. He's fine. He's lucky that he was wearing long sleeves. haha Anyways, also, yesterday I saw a teen bout 18 outside by his house in a purple shirt and I looked closer and I'm like, "What the heck! That is a Tooele Buffaloes high school shirt." I couldn't believe it hahaha! I guess T-town has a global fan base.. I saw it with my eyes it was nuts. It had a white buffalo with a T in it or something. hmmmm random I didn't talk to him haha but if i see him again i will.
Espñ is doing alright. It didn't do much better this week dang it. Some days I can understand people and others for some reason can't. In church yesterday I explained a lil bit bout these lil church cards that we give to members and they help us to find investigators, but they don't really like doing that haha.
Went to Centro today and looked at some stuff, but didn't buy anything. We were in the soccer store and on the radio was some guy talking to music in English saying how michael jackson is alive and how he planned the fake death and has a different identity haha. Then they played a recording of someone trying to sound like MJ but it obviously wasn't him haha.
It's pretty warm here. I'm liking it. My comp thinks its very hot lol. But it's really not that bad. It has been a lil bit of utah weather this week where it will rain the morning and then at 2ish or something it'll get hot haha. It doesn't seem humid. Feels kinda like utah weather, but i think my hair does get a lil curly. I can't tell a whole lot cuz its not long, but it kinda feels different.
Halloween isn't as big here as the states. Saw 3 lil girl dressed up as devils and the rest of the kids just went around with a weird hat or something. Not much kids. At wal mart they have all Christmas stuff up awwww yeah I'm defiantly in favor of celebrating it whenever.
Well gracias por todo you are all awesome. The church is true and I'm glad that Ii can serve a mish. It's hard at times, but thats okay. If it were easy then you'd never grow.
Thanks for everything
Love Elder Reginald Grant Roberts or Roberto haha yeah they dont like to say their S´s here haha
ps keep being happy !!
