Dear Family,
This week was marked with.....Yes you read it....BAPTIZM!!!!! It was the best baptism yet on my mission I think! It went splended! Ana was way excited! She invited like 10 non members to her baptism and it was amazing! She said she feels it was the turning poing in her life. I’m way excited that I got help her to start her new life on the straight and narrow!
Well, last night I got the transfer calls and I have been transfered. I was a little annoyed but President Pickett explained after that he was releasing all the Elders that were in positions that will be going home this transfer. So tomorrow I will go to my last área with my last companion. My goal is that I don't want anyone there in that área or even my companion to know that I will be going home. It should be fun.
So funny story of the week. Elder Thompson and I were in the favella (the hood, the slum, other side of the tracks). We were looking for a could be elect that we had spoken to in the street a few days earlier. We were walking up these stair alleyways. At the beginning of my mission I would probably be wetting my pants because I would be so scared to enter in there but these days I'm not scared at all. My companion was a little un-easy but He is still a Young padawan. As we were walking through one of the dark alleys I could hear someone talking in mono-tone. It sounded like those people that do that Saint Mary prayer from the catholic church. I thought that was what it was untill I got closer and I could hear what the man was saying. He said. “the way I work is killing alot! I want to kill everyone. My way is killing tons.” I was back to my greeny ways of almost wetting myself in the favella. We passed by his house and went up another stairway. As we got to the top we turned and saw this Guy running down the stairs. Again, the level of our being scared went up again. As we were going down the stairs something jumped on my comp as we were in the dark. He began freaking out swatting at what He thought was something that would kill him. It flew off of him and then went back on to him and again He was freaking out trying to get it off of him. It ended up being a little Grass Hopper but because of the intense situation that we are in He thought it was something that was going to finish him off or end his life. I had quite a good laugh!
Tchau!
