Jonah's Mission

Hola todos como están!! I hope all is well and this week's email is going to be quite short because I don't have too much time. We're busy playing domino's. Anyways this week we had the opportunity to put one of our friends on date for baptism. It's been so cool to see the changes he's made to prepare for this. This was definitely the highlight of the week. The rest just consisted of our neighbors getting absolutely wasted, my comp buying a table, and I think that's pretty much it so I'll just answer the questions now. Oh yeah we also had Thanksgiving which was fun, we made a whole chicken and it was really yummy. Also this week was transfers but nothing really happened so I'm chilling here in Villa Altagracia and I'm very happy with that. Okay now for questions.  What counsel would you give to your sisters in dealing with junior high and high school?         - only worry about yourself and don't care about what other people think. Trust the ...

  Hola! como esta todo? I hope that you all are having a wonderful week. To be honest not much has happened this week so like last week this email is going to be pretty short.         One of the highlights of this week was definitely having a bunch of drunk people buy us a coke. We were walking in the streets trying to make some contacts and we saw a group of men playing domino's. Everyone here plays domino's anyways we decided to contact them and watch them play for a little bit. We quickly realized they were pretty tipsy and so they thought everything was hilarious. One of them even showed me his bank account and he is in quite a lot of debt. When in doubt drink your problems away. It almost always works. Anyways after a little bit they insisted on us having a coke and so that was very kind of them.         The weather this week was also wild. The sky would be perfectly clear with no clouds and then the next th...

  Hola! Como están? I hope you're all doing well and are healthy. Also no one really sent me questions and not much happened this week so this email will be a little short.   We got sick this week which was a little rough but all is good.   Also we have new neighbors and they're kinda annoying. They drink and smoke allllll the time and so it makes our house smell bad. But the other day they were out smoking and drinking and their kids were just running around and one of the parents left a beer bottle unattended. A little girl who's like 6 years old grabs this beer bottle and takes a swig. We're just watching through our window in shock. Then she takes another swig. Finally the parents take it from her. We're just like what did i just see. The standards really are different here haha.   At a lesson the other day we were just talking to a member outside and then all of the sudden, his moto tire just pops. We have no idea why but that was definitely interesting We also...

  Hola everyone! Como están? This week was pretty good so that was awesome, I'll start off by answering the questions given to me and then I'll end with some highlights What is your craziest story so far? - a really drunk lady just walked into our house this last week and wanted a Bible so that was crazy. Me and Elder Gray were writing in our journals and she just walked in.  Still liking the rice and beans? - rice and beans are still pretty good What gospel principle has been the most helpful during your mission - definitely the book of mormón and the restoration. It's simple, if the Book of Mormón is true. Everything else is true too. I know that the Book of Mormon was translated by Joseph Smith who had the power and authority of God.  How have your prayers changed since you arrived in the DR? -They have gotten way longer especially as I've come to love the people and realize their needs.  What is the temperature like? Does your house have fans? - the temperature i...
