well it has been a couple of confusing days here in Sincelejo. Its a fun city here, but im having a hard time getting oriented because its so flat. it is not quite as hot as Cartagena or at least it doesnt feel like it. We were able to start the cambio off well with 4 confirmations in the zone and we have quite a few progressing for the next weeks. my compa´s name is elder Rojas and he is half peruvian half chilien. He is real skinny and walks fast ( i think that might be why he is so skinny). He has about 1 year in the mission and this is his 3rd cambio here in Sincelejo, so i have just basically following him around because i dont know where i am half of the time. My area is fun because they are alot of people to teach and alot of excersice to do (that means its big and also its about 15 mins walking from where we live). But when we are walking to the area we pass through the farmers market and they have TONS of fruits. For noche buena we are all going to buy water melons and they are going to be great! seeing for christmas we are going ot work like normal i thought it would be better if i called you in the night instead of in the morning so the phone call doesnt throw my spanish off for the day. So ill call you the 25th at 7ish or a 8ish, depends on when the other elderes in the house are gonna call. We are putting in the telephone line tommorrow so hopefully there wont be any problem with the call going out friday, i doubt there will but we are in colombia so just be aware. Im staying busy and happy because im doing the lords work where and how he wants it to be done.
love ya all and ill call ya christmas!!
Elder Larson
oh ps because we have super cool cheap phone cards every ring counts as a minute so answer the phone fast, that might not need be said but i thought that would add a fun competitve edge to who gets to answer first.
