From Elder Griffin: Still Working!

Hey everyone,

It was a good week.  None of our baptisms happened this week cause they didn't go to church, so we're still working with them.  We have a baptism this week that's sure though, a ten year old boy that's super cool, and his family wants to get baptized too.  We have to work with them, but he's getting baptized this weekend.  Also, I get to baptize a man named Gaston, he's super cool and the other elders in my house have been teaching him so that will be awesome!  I'll send pics next week of it all.  Our other investigators are all still going to get baptized, but we have to work with them longer first.

So, It was a good week, we finally moved into our new house but we don't have a water heater or desks or anywhere to hang our clothes yet so its been kind of crappy, haha, but we're getting all that stuff tomorrow, I hope.  I'm glad Escalante was fun!  I'm sending some pictures of the new house and a pic of the HUUUUGE spider that has been living right by my head on my bed that I found when we were moving it.  Gross.  No wonder I'm eaten alive every morning.  I'm glad all is well at home!  So, right now I'm at the Cyber writing you, and guess what they're playing on the radio...that one Solo song.  They only play songs from the US here and it makes me homesick.  I know every word to this song, haha.  Anyway, Thanks for sending me a package!  I can't wait to finally start getting some stuff.  Its been quite the dry spell.  the box didn't come this week to our house cause of changes, so any emails that were in it I'll have to answer next week.  We had transfers last night, but Elder Jo and I stay.  Its okay though, I didn't want to leave this area yet.  My glove ripped on something, I can't remember, so yeah, I would like to have them replaced eventually.  I don't need any hand warmers quite yet, thanks though.  I do have a way to listen to CDs, so if you want to send them feel free!!!  That would be great!  I only have 2 stamps left, and it costs 1.50 to send one letter by the Uruguaya correo, so it would be good if you could send some stamps eventually.  I miss everyone!  Hopefully these pictures send.  I love you all! Thanks for the support!

Love, Elder Griffin

Ok, spider pic totally freaked me out! I love reading about his experiences. I am so glad he is doing well. Ry is getting his papers ready to go in.
