Well it is always really important to do the right and to do the best you can. this week I think I have not been doing the best of my part but this coming week is going to be awesome!

well, small things make the difference and humility makes us stronger. humility is one of the qualities most important to help us be able to learn. To see our mistakes clearly without the filter of our pride erasing our errors. as we apply humility it will take us places muy (very) far away. Places called perfection, something that is impossible in this life. but, as we are humble enough to notice and correct our mistakes we will get very close.

the native people of the american continent and pacific islands teach me a lot about humility. and the willingness to change. They are a beautiful people and I would wish to serve them all my life. Not sure how but some way it will all work out. We can all be a little bit more humble and strive to be more willing to change and recognize our mistakes.

I am a very strange person I think... I am listening to conference talks in native languages common in central and south america. I want to learn fancy native languages. this week was crazy! and normal. But with my handy dandy new camera everything is super cool! investigadores we need to find more! and work more with the members and stuff but everything will be ok if we work super hard!!! this week my goal is to work so hard I fall asleep in our planning session! that happens a lot.... but I love people. especially latino people and even more native cultures of central and south america!! they are the bomb! As we serve our fellow beings we only serve our GOD! (Mosiah 2:17) so serve some people YALL! or just smile more that is super important too! I think I am going to get more pilas in my miskitu and stuff! possibly.. that sounds like a good idea! Also, the same cold front got here and it was like really cold one day like 69 degrees I was all shivering and stuff and al the people here were wearing huge jackets and stuff... well yeah really cold relatively!

AISABI! The sun is coming out yall!!

pues folks! the gospel is the bomb! and my shoes that Elder Swanson brought from managua are in such good shape! they can aguantar (endure) a few more months in puerto! que me dejen aquí ( I hope they leave me here). Lots of cool things are happening but this week we are going to need to focus a lot in finding new investigadores! we only have a few that really actually want to learn and act from what we teach them... BUT, PUERTO is cool. and me and Elder Arévalo are planning many great things!!! I am randomly going to write in miskitu now....

misionki uba tuanis sa. bilwira wapaia ai daukisa. Baha tauwan uba pain sa. Upla nani nara wina ba pain sa. yang bilwi ra yaprisauhkanra kaikisna. Yang takwaia want apia. sakuna yang presidentki escoger sipsa, yang sip apia. yang nani dawan warkka takaia nitsna. Diara nani salvaje ai daukisa!
BAHA PRIASKA WATLA KASAK SA! Jisus Kraist Raya sa! (sorry, he didn't give a translation)

yeah I do that sometimes.. I love miskitu people and nicargaun people, and all latino people. Latino culture is so much more relaxed white people don't like to talk to different new people but latinos are cool with whatever.


Help them people y'all!

It should totally go sit in time out in the uncooperative chair for a good while! lots of great things in the mission and the shoe salesman sold me the shoes off his feet for a really good price! note to self: don't ever buy new shoes in nicaragua they do not serve and it is better to good used nice brands sent from the united states! and we are going to go to managua the 24th for a super cool meeting with Elder Soares! yeah! I wonder if he speaks spanish.... probably, if not, cool a translator! well I love the gospel and all that jazz so we will see how that works! finally managua! three cord glu-glu again!!!

Año nuevo / yer raya

December 30

As we all pass this amazing time of a new year and stuff and remembering always Jesus Christ and his awesome life! It is always very important to look forward and think what changes I or we could make in our life so that this year could be absoluelty awesome!!! or how to be a better person and stuff. that really is a little bit more important! we can you do to be better? whose life could you possibly touch with a random act of kindness today, tomorrow, and everyday.

the world is so full of people, with lives, loves and problems with this new year strive to reach out to one everyday, in a manner csimple but sincere. As we strive to love and help others we are serving God. "when you are in the service of your fellow beings you are only in the service of your God" mosiah 2: 17

we can do much good if only we put our part we van be the hands of the Lord helping someone in need. As I have loved you, love one another, said Christ
