Brother Harris and the fox hat he made.

Fort Walton Beach continued!

We had a good week this week. We had to focus a lot on finding more people to teach since we were starting to run a little low. So we found a couple more people that have some potential! There's a soccer league that goes on every Sunday so last night we walked around this park and it was basically all Hispanics. So we're probably going to do that every Sunday to find more people to teach!

News about Rudy. That little tease is in New York now for 6 weeks and then some other state after that! Then he's going back to Honduras in December. So we probably won't ever see him again but we got his address and we sent a referral to New York so I'm sure he'll be baptized soon!

That leads me to my next guy... We found Rudy #2! We found another guy named Rudy and he also is super legit, and knows a ton. We had an awesome lesson with him the other day. But of course, after the lesson he told us that he's going to Mississippi for a month for work... What the heck is the problem with all these people leaving us! That's like 5 now! Raul too is still in Mississippi, and it's been two weeks. We're hoping that he does return, but with our luck that guys a gonner.

Okay super awesome week because we had a half-mission conference and Elder Pino, a general authority came!!!  And the coolest part is that his English was bad, so Elder Bravo got to translate all of what Elder Pino and Sister Pino said! And I got to sit up on the stand next to them, and it was super awesome! Elder Pino's a stud.

So we've taught two people this week who are illiterate. A lot of Hispanics that we teach don't have a ton of education and so it's super hard for them to progress. Especially when they can't read the Book of Mormon. We taught this guy Jose that probably understood nothing of the lesson we taught him. It was super difficult. And on top of that, it looked like he was about to fall asleep the whole time. So we were whipping out questions to keep him involved but he pretty much said he didn't know to everything... so it's difficult sometimes.

That's it for this week! Have an awesome week! Love you chaps!
