Trevor's Letter 8-15-11

Hola!
How's everyone doing? It sounds like a lots been hapenning lately. How's Jared holding up now that he's back at home? Well so far everythings been going pretty good here. Although the weather is changing everyday from cold to hot. I also got to play some soccer today with some of the members of the ward which was way fun then afterwards we played basketball, which is actually pretty popular here. Well to answer you questions, yes there are empanadas here that was actually the first meal i had, in the mission presidents home however ever since then i haven't had one which i guess is really rare, however, i did have tacos yesterday because we have a sister in our ward who likes to make all the missionaries american food , even though tacos are mexican food, and waffles.Last week we also had one of the asistants to the presidents stay in our place, who is an awesome guy and i guess he served here before. As far as the church goes its pretty much the exact same as ours, the building is actually really nice. And yes theres plenty of priesthood holders in our ward, acutally one of the fairly recent converts just got interviewed for the priesthood last week which was pretty cool. Well as far as the language goes its gotten alot better since i've gotten here since i'm pretty much hearing it 24-7. Right now i can understand most of what is going on in conversations i just dont know what all of the words mean and my talking is slow but i think its gotten better too. Well other than that, right now we are working with Victoria's sister, Nadia and she's acutally going to church everyweek and doing everything she should be but shes just nervous to actually be baptized, so hopefully we can help her feel more confident when the day comes. We have also been teaching a new family that we met last week and they have the coolest little kid. He's 5yrs old and everytime we go over there he always gives us chocolate milk and all kinds of foods while were teaching and when he's not doing that he's yelling out answers to all of the questions we have its the funniest thing. Well i hope all is good especially now that Jareds back at home. Thanks for everything.
Love,
Elder Thompson
