Spiritual Points

¡Familia!

¿Cómo están frrrrrrreaking mahn?

Did I tell you that is what the elders all say here? ¡TAYLOR! frrreakingmahn!

It hurts my delicate feelings. Also i think i forgot to tell you that the Mission President visited me while i was in the clinic, personally. Like i was a missionary that already had merit. which i still may or may not be.

So these last couple weeks we´ve been weak in trabajo. i didn´t really notice, or more likely i didn´t understand. but Elder Zurita kept tellin me, I´m trunky man(in Spanish) and really has been upset with himself and his attitude and is changing it and it is good. but he sees the disobedient elders we live with having all these baptisms and we got squat and he gets down and all this stuff and i´m too dumb to know the difference, just a happy puppy trying to be obedient and bark (talk?) more. But i sometimes too am like man, i would rather just sit and study for a second or a day. but then i remember the 3 daysin my house, 3 in the clinic and 4 in the office and say, ¡NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! and i want to leave again and go work!

We basically had to ditch a lot of our old families cuz they didn´t progress and find entirely new ones which is a challenge. we have powerful spiritual lessons and yet these people won´t come to church. But i have faith they will this week. Yesterday none of the people we planned on having in church came but i still had faith and i said, as we walked our lonely selves a la capilla, hey man (i mean elder), don´t count your eggs until they hatch, which doesn´t translate very well in Spanish and guess who showed up? an ancient woman who was inactive for 6 years, that we had visited 2 or three times and another inactive woman we visited once with her nonmember spouse! who just happens to be the mom of our new bishop? what? heck ya. scoring spiritual points, or really just being given spiritual points, cuz it´s hard, impossible really to score something of yourself. can´t be done.

todo bien,

love you all so much, but really this time is giong to fly, day are like minutes and weeks are like.... really short.

Elder Taylor
