Ya we´re here in Sajonia and ya its COLD. For the past 3 days it's been raining and overcast, and it's cold when the water fills up your shoes. But its all good we have fun working in whatever the lord gives us. And for that as well I bought a coat... and golves... and a scarf... and a umbrella... and ya, I was really cold, but not any more. ;)
But this week I learned a good lesson. We went to the church to work with the baptizmal font, and we went in for 15 minutes and I left my umbrella in the hall way. In that 15 minutes someone came in and stole my umbrella but left my companions umbrella untouched. Then when we went to leave they had left a little broken red umbrella at the door.. And it was still raining, so I got wet ;) Moral of the story. Dont leave anything anywhere, not even in the church.
Have fun in Oregon, Take lots of pictures, Send them all to me...

Elder McShinsky,
ReplyDeleteWhat's going on Elder? Your Aunt Pearl gave me your blog address and it's great to read about your experience in Paraguay. Keep up the good work. President Benson once said, "The secret to missionary work is work! If a missionary works he'll get the Spirit, if he gets the Spirit he'll teach by the Spirit. If he teaches by the Spirit, he'll touch the hearts of the people and he'll be happy...That's the secret- work, work, work. There's no satisfactory substitute."
