It's probably a good thing the members like to feed them so much!

Family,
This week has really gone by fast and we have gotten alot done!! We have received the assignment from our area authority over our mission to obtain a ward directory and go through the whole area and ward and find out who is active, less active, and in active. This is gonna take up alot of our days work because we have to go tot their house and find out where they live and why they wont come or whats the situation and then write in on the sheet and then send it into the area authority for them to analyze. Oh ya i forgot to mention.... we only have a month to do it in so we are really gonna have to crack down on the list and get goin. As for all the questions mom i will try my best to answer them all. The weather is pretty random right now and cant decide if it wants to be hot or cold. This week i was dying of heat cause is was SUPER HUMID and about 95 degrees everyday. Then finally on friday it rained and the humidity wasnt quite as bad. After it rained for about ten minutes it stopped and the smell totally reminded me of las vegas rain for some reason when i was little and played at grandmas or when we would visit. At night i am not cold at all its actually really nice in our room its just the bed that sucks. I cant email elder mcgee. So i havent heard anything from him. What else... I dont really need anything but i would love a pedometer to see how much i walk everyday!! or ya and some hot chocolate packets!! oh ya and if you want to send candy send things like skittles and starbusrts and fruity things cause it doesnt exist here at all!!!! lots of chocolate but nothing like that... Me and my companion have been working with alot of memebrs and visit them every single day. We dont really ever go to the bishops house except for lunch when his wife cooks for us. We always just have meetings after church on sunday with him. I will tell you what the way things function here are TERRIBLE, the deacons dont take off their jackets to pass the sacrament... the bishop is really unhelpful and not really a bishop cause he his like cold hearted i swear. haha just lots of things are way differetn but thats how things are in a third world country and havent been established very long in the church. Hermana Hilda washes our clothes every week for us so that is WAY nice and helpful. Today was the first day i bought groceries and it was way way cheep and wil last me a way long time. WE dont really have to buy that much besides like little snacks when we wnat them cause everyone wants to feed us always!! its great! so every second sunday of the month we are in charge of the talks and so i was first. I wasnt nervous at all which was really surprising but i ended talking for 20 minutes!!! haha i had no clue that i was up there that long. It went really well and i am sending home the english copy of it for you to read. I gave my first blessing... in the beginning of the week i did the anointing and friday i did another one but gave the actual blessing. It was way cool cause i was just laying on the couch during lunch reading the liahona and i got a promopting that i should practice the blessings in spanish. About 3 minutes later we got a call to give a blessing. Oh ya fun fact for the day... haircuts here are only 2 dollars!!!!! haha oh ya i forgot to ask kelsey... ask here for me if she has visited sister anderson yet? and about the new TI album!!! thanks! We taught a lesson the other night and their son was really sick and i looked at him and his eyes were all nasty and i could tell he had conjunctivitis so i told them what to do for it and how to help it go away and they wre really happy cause they were really strggling for money and coudlnt afford the doctor. So when we go back this week i will see how its doing!! i was really happy to be able to help them... i felt in that moment that i could do this for the rest of my life!! i love it!! thanks dad for always helping me and teaching me and letting be in with the patients. I really learned so so much from you at work. The things that i hold most valuable though is all the things you have taught ot me about serving a misison and what helped you and how it can help me!! i am really grateful for all that!!! Today we went to a giant waterfall and had some fun with the other elders in our pension. Thats what the pictures are of. Its called Los Saltos del Monday. It was gorgeous!!! Oh ya and this saturday we have a...... drum roll please... BAPTISM!!!!! haha i am way excited but we still need to teach him alot this week to be ready. We have family home evening alot with the members and less actives on sundays and mondays alot. The love it and it really helps them out!! We have one tonight for the family thats dad is getting baptized this saturday and so were gonna make it really special. Anything you got in mind that could be a fun or interesting FHE please tell me!! haha I could use all the help i can get. Sounds like eveyone is doing great though. I got your dear elders last week from mom grandma and kelsey so that was really really nice!! tell grandma to keep writing me through dear elder along with everyone else cause it comes really fast... it only took 6 days to get to me. I need grandmas email though to write her back cause thats the easiest for me. Well i will have another email with this one cause i need to send more pictures but this one is already to big. I LOVE YOU ALL!!! keep me in your prayers!! Until next Week!! Elder Hunt oh ya we dont have a ward mission leader dad... we barely have a bishopric. hahaha the 2nd counselor hasnt come to church in months!! haha
