From Elder Griffin: Rough, but Rewarding

Buenas tardes, gente de allá. 

Sorry I'm a little slow writing this morning. We've been painfully moving everything to another apartment all morning and there are tons of problems already with the new one. Good thing I helped dad with so many rentals haha, cause I've had to set up about a billion water pipes to get our water heater and laundry washer to work. Crazy day!  


So it has been a pretty crazy week.  Rough, but rewarding like always. My comp and I are trying so hard to help our zone succeed, and trying to keep our area moving and baptizing at the same time. It is starting to cool off here finally, the sun is still really strong, but the air is really cool and all the leaves are starting to fall, my mind is so confused with the season changes still, gosh dang it. Luckily we get fed every day by the members, the first time in my whole mission haha, it's such a blessing, I really like it here in this area, it's fun and the people are great. That's weird that it's just getting all hot there at home, and believe it or not, I'd love to do some yard work right now hah. It'd help relieve some stress.

I'm glad you guys finally got some letters from two months ago, haha. Dang mail system. I got a letter from Grandma today, but I haven't opened it yet, when I get home I will!  I love letters. I still haven't gotten the bank card, it should come soon.

So we are teaching an awesome guy that we found a couple weeks ago and he's called Juan Jose, he is such a miracle for us haha, we were running to the church for our baptism, and we saw him sitting in his lawn chair drinking his mate (kind of a tea thing that Guayans cant live without), and super quick talked to him, invited him to be baptized in the true church on the earth, and he said yes haha, he's come to church ever since and is getting baptized this weekend. He's dang awesome .. always telling jokes and always gets to church before we do haha. A good example. We are so excited!  Before long I'll be able to call for Mothers Day, so keep that in mind.

I love you all and I will keep all in my prayers! I hope that everything at home is well and I hope you all know I love you! Chau!
