| ELDERS HILL y SANDOVAL, HERMANA CALL y ELDER DASTRUP |
On Wednesday I
got up and wasn`t feeling too well, but we went to the church at 10;30
because we had interviews with President Call after our district meeting. E.
Sandoval and I went last so the interview was really short since we had gone
over time during the morning. I also ate my last "interview brownie"
in the mission. Crazy. Anyway, the four of us (E. Dastrup and Torrecilla) leave
and go eat and the family gives us rice, eggs w/ jalapeños, and lemonade. From
there, we stopped by the house to grab something and I threw up what we ate. I
thought that I`d just take some good old pepto and all would be well. So, we
head to Tepalcapa for a meeting with Elder Daniel L. Johnson, the area
President. Before the meeting we got our vaccinations but the doctor got a
little lost and got there late. I started helping fill syringes so that we
could get done on time and I was feeling a little queezy and towards the end E.
Dastrup is like, "Hey Hill, can you inject me?" The doctor was like
'go ahead' so I inject him real quick, and put the syringe on the table and I
feel nauseous. I head to the bathroom when it starts coming up so I cover the
mouth, get to the garbage can, and then in the bathroom someone said 'hey if
you need the toilet go ahead' so I get to the toilet and throw up everything
else that I had eaten that day and I look over and I splattered Elder Grace`s
shoe with stuff and my shirt was splattered but you couldn`t really tell
with the jacket on. Needless to say I think it was my most embarrassing day in
the mission. Throw up stained shirt at a meeting with a General Authority.
Cristian and Cintia
are progressing well. They have 5 little kids and the 3 little girls stayed in
primary and enjoyed their time. Yolanda, José Luis, and Ana Laura went as well
and are progressing toward baptism. Ana Laura gave us each a little Christmas
balloon and a little letter. I`ll take pictures for next week. We`ve been
finding new people little by little but so far no success. We´re doing our best
to always be diligent and obedient even when the opposition comes heavy. It`s
been one of the most challenging yet rewarding times of the mission. ALMA
32:40-43 Through patience and hard work, looking forward to the end when the
tree bears fruit, that`s why we go through hard times. To grow and then get the
reward.
Well, I think that`s
about it. I`m sorry for not taking pictures... I just don`t think about it too
much. I`ll take my camera this week to take pictures of our invetigators and
maybe some places here in Tepotzotlan.
Be good. Love you all.

ps... brownies in
interview and a cake the four of us ate today (Dastrup, Torrecilla, Sandoval,
me)
Hey,
I was actually going
to thank you for that today. I was just in a huge frenzy last week because I
didn`t have time to write or anything. Lately we`ve been doing things on Mondays
and we don`t have time to do anything else.
How much did it cost you
to do it? I really do appreciate it and I apologize if it was far too much to
have it done. Maybe I should have just left it how it was in the first place.
Hope Josh can get
better. I`m glad the house is moving along and if it`s not finished when I get
home that`s fine. I`ll help to get it finished.
Also, I emailed Kirk
at Mt. Nebo last week but he didn`t answer me this week. I asked him how
it would work for when I get home... Has Lane said anything about South Davis
doing a training school? I know that they hired two two years ago this last
August so I`m not sure what their plans would be. Do you have Dane Stone`s
email in my phone, or John Hauze`s? I can`t remember if it ends in @sdmf.org or @southdavismetrofire.org.ttyl.
