OK a couple of things out of the ordinary. Saturday
we had zone conference with President Harbertson. But this conference
was a little different. Instead of going to the church and talking like
normal, we went to a member's house in the middle of the jungle. In the
middle of the jungle! :) It was awesome, we were all dirty just talking
about the gospel, and then disaster struck. That morning for breakfast
my pensionista had given us chocolate cake and scrambled eggs (which was
just a terrible idea in retrospect) and let's just say that did not
agree with me. But aside from getting a little sick, it was such a cool
experience. We talked a lot about looking ahead and the different implications that could have. Maybe we need to look ahead with our
investigators to see how we can help them to reach baptism. Maybe we
need to look ahead in a sense of moving on, moving on from our family,
an old area, stuff like that. Or maybe we need to look ahead to see the
impact the mission will have on us for the rest of our lives. Pretty
funny, when we got to this part President started talking about how we
need to get married and have a family and Elder Flores turns to me and
says "In my country, it's legal to marry your pets. I really can just
get a dog." Then the little idiot just burst out laughing haha :)
That's about it. Hoping this next week will be more exciting. Sorry for another boring email.
Love you all!
Jeremy
P.S. It isn't legal to marry your pets in his country. I don't know what he was smoking.
