Email we received 7/8/13.
He's doing great and sounds pretty darn happy! I had to laugh that he said his shoes are
getting pretty "holy"! :)
And apparently pictures are on their way!!!! Hopefully they get here soon!
HEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Things are going pretty good here!!!!!! Yeah my first week with Seegmiller was SUPER tiring but SUPER good!!!!!! It was pretty nuts we taught 32 lessons this week and we recieved TONS of references from people so we have TONS of work to do!!!!!! And it`s kind of interesting. President Ward put us both as senior comp. I thought it was going to be weird but it`s acutally not that weird. We work great together and it`s funny because our DL is a missionary that came to Panama the same time we did and so we always mess with him when we report numbers. Ha ha we both report half of the numbers and pass the phone back and forth to each other. Ha ha it`s pretty funny!!!!!!!! I haven`t met President Carmack yet but we have a conference this Friday and I`ll meet him then.
But yeah Angelith is still going strong!!!!!!!! We found out that her aunt might not even be her legal gardian so we`re going to figure out if that is true. If her mom is still the legal gardian we`ll be able to baptize a lot easier. But she`s still doing great and progressing like crazy!!!!!!! We had a fast for her yesterday so we`re hoping and having faith that she`ll get baptized this month!!!! We also have another investigator named Joseph. He`s 12 years old and we`ve been teaching him for a while but he`s just now progressing. It was SUPER cool we went to pick him up before church yuesterday and when we came to the door it looked like he had forgotten that we were going to come. But he told us that he still wanted to go and that he just needed to get ready and finish breakfast then he`d head over to the church by himself. To be honest we didn`t think that he was going to show up to church. But right after the sacrament he walked in. It was SUPER COOL!!!!!!!!!!! And then he stayed the whole time and it looked like he was already a member. He was already SUPER comfortable with everyone. It was REALLY cool!!!!!!!!! He has a fecha for the 20th and he`s going to be a GREAT member!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We also found a family who are SUPER positive!!!!!!!!! The dad of the family is one of the smartest people I ever met!!!!!!!!! He works for the Smithsonion. Also, apparently the Smithsonion does work here in Panama too. But yeah he`s a SUPER smart guy. When we were talking with him, he told us that he wants to talk about the Bible and the Book of Mormon and also the history behind them, and then how they tie into each other and how they can help us. It was pretty sweet! I`ve never had an investigator that straight up told us how he wants the lessons to be. It was pretty sweet!!!!! The whole zone is having TONS of success!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here`s a response to your class`s email
HEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So things in Panama are going pretty good!!!!!!! We`re in the rainy season so it reains a LOT right now!!!!!!!!!! But it`s cool!!!!!!! We`´re working hard and teaching a lot of people. We going to baptize at least 2 people this month and hopefully more!!!!!!!!!! I haven`t seen any tigers, I don`t think that tigers exist here, but I have seen a lot of snakes!!!!!! Just the other day we were walking down the street and we saw a snake. It`s called a Coral snake. It`s one of the most deadly snakes in the world!!!!!!!!!! It was pretty scary but it was also very small. But yeah Panama is SUPER COOL!!!!!!!!!! Also being a missionary is SUPER COOL!!!!!!!!! I encourage all of you to study the scriptures and learn a LOT from church so when you are old enough you can serve a mission too!!!!!!!! Bueno, algo que también es chevere es que cuando te vas por la misión, puedes aprender una diferente idioma como español!!!!! De verdad es algo BIEN PRITY y una GRAN bendición. Anyways, keep working hard and learn a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyways, It sounds like you guys are doing SUPER GOOD!!!!!!!! That`s sad that you weren`t able to camp out for the parade. It was pretty sweet... we actually had a pretty sweet 4th of July party here!!!!!!! Out of the 6 missionaries here in Changuinola 4 of us are gringos. So we went to a member`s house and he made some pie and some cup cakes and we made hot dogs and celebrated the 4th of July. It was pretty much the best 4th of July party out side of the states!!!!!!!
Anyways, I also sent you guys a flash drive with all my pictures from Bocas so hopefully you guys get it soon!!!!!!! Anyways thanks for EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE AND MISS YOU ALL SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !
Oh one more thing. I kind of need some money to buy shoes. My shoes are getting pretty holy so if you could send me some that would be GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyways thanks for everything and have a GREAT WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!
