well changes are coming up fast ill know if i change next monday night.. so one week left. dang i love this area! everything here is going really great. the language is getting easier to get my point across and i really am loving it. i gave a talk in church yesterday. apparently it was really good from what the members were telling me. or they could of been really nice to me. no clue.
so first things first before i get down to stories.
WHAT TIME TO CALL....... I CAN CALL THE 24 OR THE 25 PERFERABLY THE 25 ABOUT 9 your time or later i may call sometime to see if i can schedul something so yeah...
ALSO... I WANT DAD´S BOOKS! for my birthday. yes i know dads books thats strange but ill be the first crockett child to read them ha ha sukaz!
anyways this past week has been good not to much has happend. its getting chilly at nights about 70 ish degrees. so tomorrow is our mission christmas party so that should be some fun times and i get my packages if they have come in by now. they have been holding them in the office stanks but thats life.
yesterday we had to talk to this member about getting there child baptized and turns out they were having a double birthday party. they invited us to dtay for cake and such. thats not the best part. they had 2 piñatas. the first one came and went the little kids had a great time. the 2nd one was for the adult. and who did they pick first. me kinda funny. i creamed that thing and the candy was delicious! ha ha was really cool. we are getting ready for a double baptism this weekend. thats really what im lookiing forward to this mission thing is getting better as the language is getting easier. still having a rough time here and there but all is well. just gotta wait my time out and it will click and ill be a champ.
so the other week i found a guy to teach. a real stud. speaks english lived in the states for 12ish years. illeagal of course but o well. i have been teaching is spanglish and hes really been progressing.i got him to quit drinking and also tell his mom hes thankful for here. anywho but when i went to his house yesterday to take him to church he left. its really hard to see people when they are progressing so much deny the truth and go there own ways. i hate it.
i loved the story about uncle gordy and the hometeaching thing. i have been pushing that in my ward as hard as my language abilities will let me. people here are lazy and dont do anything but watch futbol and work when they have it. our bishop is trying to improve this but no one not even his consejo is helping. i really hate seeing people so involved in there own lives with there own friends and not willing to let in a new convert or a less active in. its really rough being here as a missionary but i know with in time and with showing love for the people that all things are possible.
well thats my rant for the week i hope everyone is doing good. i miss you all. let me know when i can call you and i call around that time. 25 is pday for me so i have nothing to do really just laundry and study. feel free to send me church books!! im done with the missionary library the book of mormon d&c. and want more. so if you could do that mom? or mindy... ha ha anyways love you all and cant wait to hear from you!!!
love elder crockett
