So first I will start
out answering your questions.
Frias is pronounced
like Free-us. Elder Ramirez lives in the
state Sanora or something like that. He lives about 5-10 minutes from the ocean
that comes up between Mexico and the California-Mexico part. At the top of that
part. My shoes are fine,
they dont need to be fixed or anything; and yes there are plenty of places that
can fix them if I will need too. Yes I can buy sunscreen here. I just recently
started using it.
That is weird about
the weather. This last week many people have been telling us that the U.S. is
super super cold. They are saying -50 below zero. I dont know if that is in F°
or C°. But that people have been found frozen to death and its just abnormally cold.
So, I will try to
remember what I did this last week. I need to start writing stuff down again to
remember. I keep forgetting. But we have had lessons with the Zingales family.
They are super cool. We talked about the plan of salvation, well they pretty
much taught the lesson to us again. They read the pamphlets and just take
everything in. It all makes sense to them. Yesterday for the second time they
came to church, and really enjoyed it. They all participated in the classes and
the members think that they are great. He has study materials from the church
and they study that in preparation for church. He has even gone on the internet
and studied stuff and obviously saw what other people say about the church but
he didnt care. He loves us, he has invited us to stay the night at his house if
we ever needed to, swim in their pool if we feel like taking a break, and we
are going to eat and their house with them soon. But they are a cool family.
The cool thing is that
yesterday at church we had 11 investigators come. It was a fourth of the whole
attendance of 45 people. We were excited and the members are getting a little
more excited too.
That is pretty much
about all I can remember. I will do better this week to write stuff down.
But anyway, I will see
you again next week. I love you all and hope you have a good week. Love you!!!
