Mon Feb 14, 2011 -- Posta Leiva

Oh hey there everyone!
Just another swell week in swell Posta Leiva! It´s been pretty exciting I suppose, and filled with lots of rain which means that it´s cloudy a lot which is quite nice. We had zone conference on thursday which was pretty magical. It was a lot better than the last one cause I could actually understand what people were saying. We did some sweet service this week in the asentimiento. We moved a fence post about 8 inches so the neighbor lady could have 8 inches more of ghetto land. It´s kind of cool how people that live in houses made of trash can argue about less than a foot of weeds! Yeah! And on the way back from the service, we watched a dog get hit by a car. The dog is okay so don´t you worry! The other elders that lived with us had a baptism yesterday which was pretty cool. The new elder got to baptize one of them and you shoulda seen his dunking. Right to the bottom I tell ya! I didn´t think she was coming back up. :O Then after, in South American fashion, they had a sweet party in the church cause it was a birthday! They even had a bouncy house thing. And they had crappy hot chocolate and things called Jet Jet! They are kinda like packing peanuts sprinkled with sand. Mmmm! Yeah! We´re having a baptism this thursday so I´m pretty excited for that one!

In other news, Inocencio said he wanted to "resign his investigatorship". He was scared of baptism so now we´re still working with him, but we´ll see how everything goes. We did find some other cool people this week. One of them is a die-hard catholic lady, but she´s really interested so hopefully all goes well!

Other than that, I think it was pretty quiet down here. Only two more sundays left in this change! Crazy! It´s good to know that there is a rabid fox running around back home. But yeah, happy Valentine´s day everyone! I celebrated by going to a chinese restaurant in Asunción. I didn´t actually eat anything cause I had some crappy food last night that did me something awful. But the food looked good. I love you all! Stay safe and happy and all that jazz!

Love,
Elder Morris
