Q & A's

Kyle answered a few of our questions for us this week…

Where do you e-mail?

We email at this little computer place, just a lab in a building on one of the main roads, the zone meets together to email together, on monday and we pay 1$ for an hour of computer time, so thats what we do! :)

How are you are doing with the weather?

                Oh the Weather! haha its hot lots, but it doesnt bother me at all, and yeah its humid too but that doesnt bother me at all either! I love it, the Sun is great, and ya just get used to having sweat dripping off your face all throughout that day ;) haha Love it! -Thats the Mission- :) oh but the rain stroms are nuts, they are way legit, it comes down, fun lighting and thunder too, like last night we has some sweet lighting! doesnt rain as much as i thought tough, or maybe i just dont notice when it does, we always carry our umbrellas because the weather is so shifty, kinda fun :) Love the Adventure!

 How big is the area that you are teaching in?

How big is my area.. hmmm.. good question.. i dont know!  nor do i really know where i am! i have an idea, but yeah, haha.. as i mentioned in my first email, we are in Arraijan, and me and Elder Alley are in the part Vista Allegre, i am emailing right be a market called The Rey right now :) i think our area is a few miles by a few miles big. The other day i took a pedomiter with and we had 23,600 somthin steps in that day.. like 12 miles worth! haha it was nuts! that was high though, in preparation to running around everywhere inviting everyone of our investigators to conference :) but yup so that more on the area!

  How much conference  did you get, and where and how, etc... ?

Conference - OHHH YEAHHH! oh got to watch every single second -so legit- Conference was absolutely amazing! i do hope that all of you at home really got to spend some time to take part in that wow :) Lots of notes, is what i got, learning from the speakers and the Spirit! Love love love it!

So did you hear the announcement?  Provo tabernacle will be made into a temple!

Kay wow - Another Temple in Provo, and from the Tabernacle.,?? Incredible, when i heard that announcment by President Monson, i was just filled with Joy :) I thought of you too mom, cause i know it was hard for you to see it go, wow what an amazing opportunity!! Ahhh this Church is so True!!
