Hey!
We are really not doing anything for Thanksgiving. We have had many offers from investigators/members but not sure yet.
So guess what, I was made AP! NO, not true, me and my companion are staying. I think it is good, things are picking up here and last Sunday when I talked we had 7-8 investigators at church! About as many members there are in the branch. lol
Things are well here, learning many languages. Basically a new one everyday. I can’t believe I am already almost at a year. CRAZY! Have a fun/fat thanksgiving and tell everyone the same!
Later!

Hey,
Thanks for the conference ensign, I love studying from it.
So stories or things that have happened... Well the other day we ended up going in a guys apartment and taught him and come to find out he was one of the top-dogs in the Mexican mafia. He told us stories of switching lives from making $30,000 a weekend to struggling financially and how he left it cause he didn't want to be a part of it. He is the REAL DEAL! It is pretty crazy! He is cool though and was really interested in the Book of Mormon. We are going back tomorrow.
We went to eat at one of our investigators house because it was their birthday and their son put on a white shirt, dark pants and church dress shoes, and told his parents that he was "los hermanos". It was pretty funny. He is about 6 years old I think.
Our clases de ingles went well and hopefully they go well tonight. WE had a lot of success, and some are interested in the church.
It is crazy to think how I could talk with people from India and then they take it over there and spread it across the world. It is CRAZY diverse here!
Thanks for everything!
Later!

Mi companero esta tomando mucho tiempo para escribir su familia entonces tengo tiemp para escribirles otra vez y practicar escribiendo espanol. Al e scribir espanol es diferente de hablarlo o escucharlo. Es loco de ponerme pensar en que antes yo nunca entendi nada de espanol y las cosas que ell os fueron diciendo. Todavia tengo problemas de hablarlo muy bien y entend er lo que ellos dicen pero todo esta bien. Pueden comprender todo de esto ? Si o no? Si no, hay! Porque hay una cosa bien importante en este parafo. No, no es cierto. Adios!

Hey!
So I guessed right on Andrew. So now he is in the Spanish-speaking club. Tell Andrew he's the Man! As for elections....I could care less, I’m sorry to say. Even though stuff was in Chicago I haven’t heard anything. I truthfully was not even thinking of elections and had no clue what was happening.
We just received a new ward mission leader and elders quorum presidency and a new second counselor in the branch presidency and he has only been a member for about 6 months. A lot of new changes and our new ward mission leader is crazy, white (gringo), his wife is Hispanic, he speaks Spanish. I really like it here but not excited for the cold or adjustments. Did you find my apartment? it is the side on the inside with the big lot in the middle. I don't remember if I told you last time but say hi to Bro. Summers for me.
Investigators are good, we’re finding more and some of them are super awesome to be around and are fun to talk with, like friends. We are starting clases de ingles today to teach them and as a way to get people interested in the church cause we are doing the clases in the church. We have gotten many calls to go, enfonces ojala que muchos puedan venir y aprendan de la iglesia.
estoy mejorando mi habilidad de lazar. Ahora me encanta lazar. Como le fue su noche de brujas y las actividades en la iglesia? Pueden entender lo que estoy diciendoles? Todavia me falta mucho con espanol. Espero que todo este bien! hasta luego!
