Dear Loved Ones,
Well
this week has been great! On Wednesday I was able to go to the Temple
and that was so fun! Then on Friday night my companion and I had a
somewhat sketchy experience. (Mom you may not want to read this part)
So the Hermanas here asked us if we could help them teach one of their
investigators about the priesthood and they would translate for us. His
name is Mario and the lesson went really well! Afterward it was pretty
late and we only had a few minutes to get home so Mario offered to
drive us. He doesn't speak much English so to get home My companion and
I memorized "right" and "left in Spanish and that is how we gave him
directions to our house. While he was driving I noticed his truck kept
on slipping into neutral. I thought that was weird. As we drove a bit
longer we realized why.... His truck didn't have any brakes!! He was
shifting into neutral to slow down before a stop sign and using the
parking brake to stop. It was kinda crazy but Mario did it like a pro!
haha I remember him telling us before giving us a ride that "the truck
was missing some parts." Who knew that those parts were the brakes?
Haha It was a pretty awesome experience and I probably will never forget
it.
On Saturday we helped out with a Christmas festival in Huntsville
and it was amazing! They had a choir and orchestra concert that sounded
so great! I want y'all to here it!
Things with our
investigators are going so awesome! I am loving the people here more
and more every day! I can't believe that this transfer is already
halfway over! I am looking forward to the rest of it! I love it here
in Cullman everybody is so cool! Well I hope that y'all have a great
week!
Love you!
Elder Whetten
