hey!!!
so i have like no time at all to write everything i want to see heres the important stuff.
i have my FLIGHT ITINERARY!! everything worked out fine my visa is the bomb and im on my way on monday morning. the flight info is im on delta airlines, (doesnt ever leave the airport) flight 1912 from salt lake city ut to atlanta georgia. flight leaves at 11:01 am and arrives at 4:35 pm in atlanta. then i have a 3 hour layover then jump on flight 101 to buenos aires, argentina at 750pm and arrive in argentina at 750am!!!! 12 stinkin flippin hours!! haha imma be on a plane with people who dont speak english at all, or the broken up spanish i can muster either. so im going to just testify to people in spanish and hopefully that works out!!
im pretty sure that ill melt my first step out down there haha so here we go!
last night we had elder holland come for the second time while ive been here, that man is incredible! he talked about a bunch of stuff and it was sooooooo coool! when i took the notes i am pretty slow and sometimes combine the words of some sentances with phrases from other words so i have a lot of one liners that i liked from him. he always hits every missionary in the heart with all his words. okay so some of the one liners are.
practice makes perfect, the people deserve the best effort from all of us in whatever we do in life.
be master teachers and deliver the goods
we are the last missionaries for this dispensation, put your heart on the line
submit everything you have to the Lord and he will multiply what youve givin unto him and return it to you as blessings.
we as missionaries have GOT to be the best there has ever been, we are the hope of Israel at 19 or 21 years old.
we must go fishing and fish where he tells us to, in doing so we will always find those in need.
if we love Jesus Christ then we will feed His sheep, once we do this with everything we have, we will be Eternally in His work and forever the sentinals of truth if we LOVE HIM,
there is no going back, if you go back you have failed the Lord
stay the course, see it through, be Deciples of Christ for Eternity. (my favorite!)
so yeah he's is something really special, after that devotional we had a district testimony thing and haha it was like the most best experience of my life :)
its so crazy how even if your day has been the worst day ever, if it ends good then it can be made the best day ever :)
anyways, food still stinks here, i put this hot sauce that my companion has on everything now, and by everything i mean EVERYTHING haha. the hotness of the hot sauce numbs my mouth so i dont have to taste the food haha. i cant wait till real food!! last wednesday we got new elders in our zone so me and my companion had to teach them the ropes and such. then give them a tour and make sure they dont completely fall on their faces and to make sure they dont go home haha. :)
i love this oportunity and everything that comes with it!! my next letter will be from ARGENTINA!!!
so i love you all,
peace,
Elder Summers
Yea for pictures and he sounds soooo good. I guess my pestering him about pictures worked ha-ha! I'm sooo excited that you get to (hopefully) talk to him on Monday :0)
ReplyDeleteThat is so exciting! So good to hear that he's doing so well, I can't wait to hear more from Argentina!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great man he has become. Hey where did that guy come from??????? We love him so much.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the pictures Hayden. Joseph's sister, Michelle, has created a post for him too. Hope his experiences are as great as yours. Thanks for the tip on the cereal.
