So yeah. last week. thank goodness i dont know how people did this with like 9 weeks. so yeah. id run away. jk. its like prison here. hahahah they lock us all in and its all fenced off. they say its to keep people out. but we all know the truth. hahahaha
Couple points of buisness to conduct. Kaylyn your beautiful.
(that was my main point)
And i hope you do great at your dance. keep up the hard work your amazing! im loosing all my dance moves here. why? cause we arent aloud to dance. so fail. hahaha i hope everything is going good with you!
=D so! this week. what a week. super hard. haha my neck is doing great. my volleyball skills are quite up there. =P i went and got my neck cleared so i can leave here! all good to go. it gets sore every now and again. but its just muscle no big deal. =D
Dad your talk rocked. it sounded... just like you =P hahaha i love when you use me as an example. hahaha its weird to hear that other times in my life ive been an example. i thought my mission was the first time hahahah =P who said that. =D
So i dont miss rocking. i miss zombies a litle. but. its nothing compared to the spirit here. so i think we are good. =D haha you all thought id lose it. =D but. my mind is still in my head.
So my investagators. i will never again be able to spell that word. investagadors and investigators? hahaha it didnt get underlinded in red so i got it right in one language. =P My spanish is getting there. and i feel good about it. cause god has blessed me so much with it. camila is a stubborn woman. we have taught her the restoration for like 5 lessons! she knows the bible so we have to like go deep for her to understand it. and we thought we were done. when she was like! i cant pray about it. cuase we didnt need it. i believe the book of mormon is true. you wouldnt be here telling me lies. i just dont know why we need it. than my teacher stopped us. (yes she is the investagator as well) and was like whats wrong. hahaha it was awkward. pero. i love that teacher. she has helped me learn so so so so much. and i always feel the spirit when she teaches. she is just like a good friend to us. that is teaching us more than we could ever imagine about the gospel!
or other teacher hermono serrato is great. =D his investagator is eric. and he! is a teenager that doesnt do anything with his life. and before you make jokes about me. i had two jobs. =P hahaha but he just is accepting and very cool. i love teaching him! he always wnats to know more. he came to church with us (metaphorically cause... he is our teacher and its fake!) ( but its not fake cause the lord leads us with the spirit cause he know its to help us practice for the future.) that part i think is so cool. pero. he has a baptismal date. and we are pressing on. i love him. hahaha but our teacher outside of our investagator. is super cool. he is super funny. and sometimes he just stopps and laughes at us hahaha what a brat. but he is teaching me alot about doctrine and how to get the doctrine out of anything. focus on the why and the investagator will figure out the how.
SO yeah. Elder Bednar came. again. to talk to us and continued aswering questions what an amazing man. he said an analagy about the the truth. of the gospel. its like a board. and the bible has truth. so its like a nail. so if you put the nail through the board you can twist and turn the truth. you can change it. but! if you add another nail. the book of mormon. the truth cant move. its constant. it stays the same. =D its so cool!
He also talked about the sacerdocio aka the priesthood. and about why women dont have it. his answer. we dont know why men have to carry it. just that they do. than his wife talked about. how men and women are like two half and have to create a whole. after my mission of corse. than elder bednar said. The priesthood is like an umbrella. it covers men and women. its just the males job to hold it. =D
Its for everyone. its a blessing from god. and anytime anyone needs to use it they can! (if there worthy and stufff!) but you get my point. priesthood doesnt have a gender. its just our responsibiltiy.
our branch pres wife. said. it makes me so mad when women get upset about this. she is like. I dont want the priesthood. i cant raise a family have kids and be a wife. AND hold the priesthood.
It made me think. God is perfect. we all know that. that my friends is doctrine. see. im getting good at this. (only through good am i getting good. i do not boast of my own strength only the strenght of my god.) if god is perfect and he created man and women. dont you think he knows what powers and strengthes each one needs to help the other? yes ! god is all powerful. muy poderoso! i love him. he blesses me daily.
So yeah. my luggage. seems to be fine. im not even worried about it yet. hahaha hahahaha so. there is this elder named elder ridgly. we dont know exactly what his deal is. but he is the funniest man youll ever meet in your life. he just says the wierdest things. right now he is going through his email cause he found out if you type a letter all the emails that start with that come up. he is currently on the letter P hahahaha what a wierdo. he keeps us entertained. so my companion elder hoover has been reasigned to florida. so just me and parker have our visas and are going to costa!
MOM I HAVE GREAT NEWS! i just realized. god has finally blessed me with a black friend! well brown. =P but he teaches me sports. and i help him with his girl problems. he is doing so much better. god blessed me with him so that i could know for myself through all my hard things how it gets better. he says he is greatful for me and all i do. but i think he blessed me more. =D cant wait to serve in costa with him. he is our District leader. its what he needed to step up and get through his problems.
I love you guys. i really miss you all! hahaha gosh. i love you each and every one. thanks for all you do.
Love your missionary.
Elder Evans
