Dear Family,
Hello again! Another week has passed. Sounds like it went
well for you all, albeit with a few adventures (way to go Sarah and
Mom!).
Our week was mostly hot. I don´t Know if it´s just because I´m
wearing a tie and slacks or what, but the heat is getting to me. We haven´t gotten
above 40 yet, but it is roasting! I guess I should count myself lucky to be in
an air conditioned office for most of the day.
So on to news for the week. On Monday we met with a new
investigator named Raul. He is from Bolivia and works in some type of
information technology something, so he and Elder Stephens hit it off talking
about computers and stuff I didn´t understand. He apparently has family that
are mormones so he said he knew some stuff already. Then he asked us if it was
true that we don´t drink coffee or eat pork. We explained that coffee no, but
pork is fine. He didn´t seem to believe us and we haven´t seen him since. We´ve
set up 3 other lessons and he just doesn´t show, so i´m not sure what think.
On Thursday the 4th we had zone conference, so we had to
push back our celebrations. I´ve included pictures of our 5th of July Cook-In.
It was awesome! You remember how I told you we got a panini maker? Well it has
grill plates. So we cooked up some hamburgers and it was almost like a home BBQ,
although the homemade buns were sorely missed. It was a lot of fun.
Other big highlight of the week was the baptism that night.
It was so cool to see Markitos baptized by his dad. I also put in pictures of
that. It was funny because Bishop filled the pool up a little too much, so
Markitos was practically under the water just entering the pool. I imagine it
made the baptism easier though. It´s super cool to see them as a family
involved in the church.
Well, those are the main events for the week. Sorry the
email is a little short, but there are pictures, that helps right? Thanks for
keeping me updated, and I´m glad you had a good 4th of July. God bless
America. I love you guys! Thanks for all you do, for all your love.
Take care!
Love,
Elder Cousins
