Summer

Hey family,

For those that aren't aware, summer comes during december down here, and it's quite hot.

We're filming a Christmas video as a zone. It has no purpose whatsoever, they're just funny and we share them with the whole mission during the Multi-zone. At the beginning of this transfer I prophesied that Elder Crane would break a bone, and it just about came true when he took a flying leap off the stage on camera. It's gonna be a great video.

The other day Elder Crane also decided to try his hand at training a rooster. We went to this member's house, and it was totally a cock-fighting den. They had this rooster puppet on a stick and you just swing it at the rooster and it like attacks it. It was actually super cool.

This week's inspiring story is Ana and Pepe. Possibly the poorest house I've visited here, she's a half-blind, uneducated widow living with her middle-aged son, who's sufficiently autistic to not be able to work. They accepted baptismal dates and it was so powerful. Their faith comes from their friend, whom we baptized a couple months ago, because he looks out for them and finds them new apartments when things get rough. So powerful, testimony builder of the power of fellow-shipping and of the power of humbling circumstances humbling people. Alma 32.

Love this work and my Savior :)

Have a great week!
