Last week's email

Last week's email did not go through.  Sadly, Destinee loaded pictures to send also, and they disappeared.  She finished up what she could remember (the email stopped mid sentence in her draft box) and sent it this week.  She said, "We are on a timed computer, not one that shuts off at the hour, but I still want to be obedient. Even if I could get away with it, it`s best to follow the rules and set a better example. But this week I will be able to send it. ".  Here it is:

Family,

Tuesday I finally saw the ocean. The beach was beautiful and we had fun. The elders were in normal clothes all the time so they appeared like ``puro chavalos``. 

 

On wednesday one of our appointments fell and my companion asked if I wanted to go the next appointment early or pass by the business of a member family. I felt like we should do the second option. While there we found one of the young men, *****, and he accompanied us. He is bien pilas. After the appointment we all went to the church for meetings. 

 

I discovered this week that we have an assigned mission leader. It is not a calling because he already has a calling, but here are some interesting facts:

 First mission leader was named Estuardo. In my second area the mission leader was named Eddy Emanuel. In the third area our mission leader was Eduardo. And here our mission leader is Estuardo. Funny right? 

 

Friday we had interviews with the president and I received my package. 

 

Saturday we had a Noche de Hermanamiento in the church and outside we found a horse spider. Hermana Marin killed it but she had to beat it with the broom 3 or 4 times to kill it. A couple of the young men that night were giving me ``recetas`` or recipes, but recipes that are hogwash or as one of the presidents call them, ``locuras``. It made me laugh though.

 

 Well, sorry there aren`t photos here to send to you. I had a lot to send but I guess last week they didn`t save when I tried sending the email and this week I didn`t bring the camera to upload photos. I guess you`ll have to wait until the next week to see the beach and our adventures. Well, that is all for the last week. Love you.

Love Hermana Destinee Park
