All is well here, I've been doing really well with the language and with being a missionary. Before I literally tried to open my mouth so that the spirit can talk through me... but my companion would just laugh because that's not what it means, plus I just looked like a dork. Then I started to say words that I knew and all of a sudden I was talking a foreign language, it was pretty cool!!! Here is the story of the missing shoes:
My companion got his shoes stolen a few weeks ago. They were sitting outside in the back, the thief must of jumped the fence and ran. So yesterday we saw a kid with the exact same shoes as Elder Ferrin, he made eye contact with us and started to walk the other way faster then normal. The little kid he was playing with said, hey where you going? The kid that stole the shoes said, "quiet". As soon as we said "hey" he started to run as fast as he could. We couldn't run because, well we`re missionaries. We lost him around a corner so we asked some little kids, where did the running kid go and they innocently pointed to a house. We went to the house and explained the situation with the parents there, they got mad, we tried to explain so that they would not get even more upset. Long story short those parents came by our house last night and told us sorry. They made up some story about him buying the shoes. The shoes have been gone for a long time and my comp was really up set about it. So as soon as he saw that kid start running I had to hold him back. Well that is that story of the lost shoes. I love it here.
Oh and I was in the middle of my first old lady bicker fight. I just got so confused.... it was about marrying a Latino girl or a American girl... I just laughed.
ok so I got my package as you can see. HAPPY EASTER!!
Elder Gomm and Elder Ferrin are getting FIRED up about Missionary work!
