March 24, 2014 - Letter to Dad - Week 29


Hey Dad!!!

I didn´t get an email from you this week!!!  What happened?  It´s ok I´m sure you were tired or busy with something, but it's been a pretty good week here in Telde.  I had an exchange with another missionary this past weekend and was able to go down and work in Vecindario!!  It's toward the south of the island and its soooo windy!!  Like you can't talk to people in the streets because of the crazy amout of wind!!  But I was with another guy that is pretty new from utah, and we had a great time!  Taught some good lessons and found some people!  I had one of those crazy experiences that you always hear misisonaries talking about, where like you just start talking in spanish and even though you don't know exactly what you are saying it's what the investigator needed to hear.  They have someone with a lot of worries and confusion about the gospel, and we were teach him late like at 8:15 ish, and after a bit into the lesson he wasn't really paying attentions so we asked if he had a question and he went off on like asking why we are here as missionaries and why he should believe anyting we say and stuff.  And then we just ditched the lesson and started talking to him.  Like why we are here as missionaries, how this is something that has blessed us and our families so we want to share with others, and I really don't remember what else I said, but next thing I knew it was like 9:30 and we were all happy ending the lesson and he wanted to meet more with the other missionaries later that week!  It was really cool!!   
Well how have things been back in Poway?? Is the biking going good??  Do you ride a lot with Uncle Wade and Bryce??  I wrote quite a few letters to like you guys and some aunts and uncles and people so maybe I need some addresses later next week!  Not sure yet... Well hope to hear from you next week!!  Love you!!!

Nathan
