Drunks

 Okay, it's been a fast week, I don't know where the time is going. Next week is changes. It's likely I'm leaving because I finish training this week. I have over a year and two areas. There are people that have served in Bolivia and Chile that had 1 area and 19 companions. I have had two areas and four companions. Everyone here tells me that President is punishing me. But I'm enjoying myself. I got to do changes with a Bolivian for a day. There are three Bolivians, from where he lives in La Paz, that are in this mission, they are all very smart. He taught me some cool things on guitar. I love these people down here.

  There is a less active I met my first day here in May. He answered the door super drunk. After many visits and relapses, he is finally progressing. It has been an incredible experience to see him apply the atonement in his life and change himself. He has told us how challenging it has been and how rewarding. He said it is impossible to take away what he did to his family and his friends and the people in the street. When you see someone drunk, they aren't the same. Some cry, some yell "GRINGO", some are on the ground passed out, some sing really loud, but you can always repent. It has been an amazing time of learning for him and for me.

  Love you all! Why doesn't anyone tell me what's happening with football!? I'll send pictures when I'm sure I won't get a virus...
