| THE SUNRISE THIS MORNING |
FIRSSSST of all. I have a cool story. Last Sunday we did open doors in the chappel with our district leader and his companion and the two zone leaders. Basically, we opened the doors and gave tours to people walking by while the elders contacted in our sector. And the Elders found this AWESOME guy in the streets that said he "saw a light in the Elders" and he wanted to learn more! So on Tuesday, we went to visit him. anddd its so sad because he is seriously living in a tent on the side of the road with his brother. He came out to greet us, and he was super super super drunk. Like he just reaked. He kept asking us to come into his house and we politely declined, but we gave him a pamphlet and told him he needs to stop drinking. He said whenever he sees a picture of Jesus he feels super guilty and wants to change.I seriously want him to change! hes got such great potential and I know his life can be so much better if he accepts our message. BUT. We can't teach him if hes drunk. SO we've been calling him every single night in hopes that maybe he'll stop. I dont know whats going to happen. BUT. My hopes are real real high.

| cutie hermana Norton |
We had Return and Report this week and it was probably the best day of my life. The night before we had four Hermanas come and stay with us from the south of our mission. Hermana Curtis and Hermana Bowling were both in my group in the CCM, so it was sooo fun to see them. Hermana Bowling has a companion from Arizona, and she informed me that she literally hasnt learned any spanish because she just talks in English with her companion all the time. Like uhhhhh okay glad I dont have a gringa at the moment...
The next morning we left super early to go to Concepcionnnnn. AND IT WAS SO FUN BECAUSE I GOT TO SEE HERMANA NORTON!!!! Shes the cutest and shes doing so good in her area. We got to listen to Presidente and Hermana Wilhem talk and we learned lots and it was just a grand day. But I did notice something. There were definitely two types of New missionaries at Return and Report. The people who working there hardest and struggling to learn the language and the people who were just kind of waiting for it to come. And I kinda had a moment of panic, WHICH ONE AM I???? needless to say, Ive changed my study habits a lot this week, and Im doing seriusly everything in my power to learn this language. EVERYTHING I CAN.
I seriously cant believe Ive been here for six weeks already. Like how the heck. OHHHH I love it here.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BIG BRUDDA THIS WEEK. you rock dall.}
Okay I love yall have a swell weeeeek. :)
love hermana poyfair
