We had another baptism
yesterday, which was pretty cool. I got to baptize again. We do this thing
called a comp exchange where other missionaries in our zone switch for the day
and Elder Cortez came to Sihuapan with me. He’s from Argentina and doesn’t
speak any English. We were talking to these guys who have been listening to the
JTs and they were trying to teach us stuff out of the new world bible--(I’m not
really sure because I couldn’t understand)--but I looked at my comp to ask what
they were saying and he looked at them like "One moment, I’m going to
explain to my companion in English" and then turned to me and said in way
broken English "tissss is craaaaap!" I have no clue where he learned
that phrase but is was pretty funny. He did it like 3 times and the guys just
thought he was translating for me.
We were visiting with
this sister who has epilepsy but I didn’t know about it at the time and she was
talking for like 25 minutes straight and then all of the sudden just stopped, turns
to her side and who the heck knows what happened. It looked like her arm went
numb and she started drooling. She grabbed her arm with her other hand and
started like hitting it against her lap. This lasted for like 3 minutes and we
just sat there watching her. After it stopped she just stood up and walked
inside. My comp and I just sat on her front porch for like 2 minutes and then
walked in to see if she was alright. She acted like nothing happened and she
was doing something in the kitchen. haha every week I’m out here gets better
and better because I’m starting to get the hang of things. I know that when I’m
following the rules and have the right mind set time flies and I always have a
good day.
I love you a ton and I
hope all is well
Elder Kimball
