what up
whats good in the hood.
hows the snow
i remember when i was little and me and my ginger headed
brother taylor were sleeping in a tent in my room on christmas eve.... and
guess what! we freaking heard santas boot in our living room! i will never
forget that moment! i hope santa makes a visit to my nasty cockroach infested
pension on tuesday night :) maybe he will clean it for my present.... that
would be awsumm
id like to start off saying thank you for the letters that i
got from the gates, bob, elena, olivia simons, taylor my ginger headed
brother, kylie tolman, my mommy and pappy!! your letters that i got in my
package wereeeee sooo awesome! thank you so much!
yes just as you are expecting im going to start off
complaining about how bloody hot it is here!! haha o myyyy gasshhhhh im
cooking... i hated saunas and steam rooms before my mission... well thats what
buenos aires is like... a meggggggga steam room! im a walking sweat drop..
so 3 times this week because there are riots going on in the
streets and people robbing supermarkets at this time off the year our power was
turned off.
when your power is turned off that means your fan dont work!
when your fan dont work that means you sweat.... when you sweat and feel like
you are in an oven that means you dont sleep... so i got a good 2 hours of
sleep those nights! haha my bed was drenched in sweat,.... mega gross
ahha classic story... so there are some oldddd investigators
in our area... they wont get baptized because they wont get married...
they are a wee bit crazzzzzy.... like real crazy.
so the other day we are walking to their house and what do
you know the man is talking a shower in his front yard with the hose... im not
sure how to spell that word
anyway he knows a little bit of english and hes yelling at
me "im a harssss" (im a horse)
he only had some tiny little shorts and and hes a little bit
on the heavy side... o yezzzzz sooooo nice.... such a beautiful sight :)
so in my mind im thinking.... hmmmm this is a nice sight...
a beautiful 5 foot 6 240 argentine horse :) haha no worries because he was a
good looking horse,,,, haha some of the things you see here.
mega sweet... sorry if thats a potty talk story momma but it
was a nice sight... kinda like when dad mows the lawn with his shirt off...
thats always nice
ummm we vistted this inactive family with 9 children under
the age of 19
they have zero money and barely make ends meet...
the dad has drug problems and their family is just a mess
right now
they have had medical issues in there family and the dad
almost died 3 years ago
they youngest child is 5 years old and has some sort of
disease.
hes an adorable little kid but was born with some sort of
issues.
hes 5 and cant walk... and is seriously malnourished.
he wasnt able to see or talk until just barely.
i think that his problems wouldnt be as severe if the family
could afford to pay for his medicine yet there is nothing they can do about it.
seeing things like that really breaks your heart and makes
you feel miserable
i wonder why ive been so blessed to have the life i have
i never had to worry about being fed. if i had medical
problems they were taken care of
living in a different country can really change your outlook
on things
yet that doesnt make me any better than them... i am gods
child just like they are and god looks at us in the same way.
we have been visiting this inactive member for a long time
that has not come back to church
he is so kind and i really do love the guy
the other day we went to his house and he was hammered
drunk...
i could see the sadness in his eyes and i could see what
alcohol has done to him.
its completely ruined his life...
you look at some of these people and you hurt for them
yet you know the answer to all of their problems
the answer is the gospel but you cant make that decision for
them...
you just hope and pray the lord will fill your mouth with
something good enough to make the difference in their life to get them to
change.
anyways we are trying to re activate these members.... and
they are being a little stubborn!
im always thinking come on now!! you know the church is
true!! youve told me it! so get your bumm to church and you know you will see
the change in your life!!
who knows maybe they have blisters on their feetsies just
like i do so they cant walk to church... haha you can hear some funny excuses
of why people cant make it to church...
these past 2 weeks we have been able to share a lot of
messages on the birth of our savior
ive realized how much the savior really means to me
im so thankful for his birth
for the perfect life he lived
for the perfect example he gave me on how i can be happy
a perfect example that if i live it i will return to the
presence of my father in heaven
he is perfect.
a perfect life he lived all for us
i hope you all have a merry christmas
and you allllll get some sweet stance socks... thats whats
on my christmas list
i hope this week you get the chance to see a nice looking
horse taking a shower with their house like i see this week... trust me you
dont want to miss a sight like that
love you all!! thank you all for the letters!! if i cant
write you back this week or i dont write a lot im sorry!! im trying my best
here!
love,
Elder Jew Boi Myers
