More Then Preaching??? But thats all we do... :)
O.k. Stories,
First, Elder Singson just left to another area in Asuncion, and Elder Noreña is here with me in Presidente Franco. He's From Columbia. Next, the picture's, Are of angel. He's 71, from Venisuela, and just got baptized a little while ago. Angel was found way out in the middle of nowhere really far from the church, and super Drunk. We taught him and he has been coming to church ever since, but what's so great about the pictures is that I'm finally cutting his beard. The Bishop told us that for him to keep progressing he needed to improve his personal image. Part of which was to cut his beard....
Well he didn't like that one little bit, and it took us 3 months of teaching him to help him understand the importance of following our leaders council. Even if we don't understand why. And yes it was a major acomplishment to finally get it cut. :) P.S. He also got kicked out of his appartment, and for about a week he has been living in our water tower. Kinda like a Little Mormon Hermit, but he'll be out of there in a jiffy.
Next, it rains a lot here, and I seem to have some sort of bad luck with the whole umbrella thing... Today I had to buy a new umbrella because my other one broke in a big storm we had the other day. This is the 6th umbrella I've had to buy in the last 6 months. That's not a good thing. This time I bought a nice one, so I hope it lasts me at least for the rest of my time here. If not, well then I give up on umbrellas!
Happy Birthday ELLA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pleas pray for Cristian y Blanca. We would love for them to get baptized this next week. Thank you!
Love,
Elder McShinsky
