Cows


Hi,
 
Elder Bautista and I finally have this area down. The area has lots of potential. We are going to make it grow. We talked to President and the goal is to split the area. We have quite a few people we are seeing and some are getting Baptized in the next two weeks. The past 2 weeks has flown by and lots is happening. I'm getting up to my 18th month mark and that is really scaring me! I honestly don't want it to end.
 
On our way from Moroni to Mt Pleasant we almost got in a car accident. I was driving the speed limit (55mph) and at the very last second I saw some black cows crossing the road. I slammed on the brakes and pulled of on the shoulder just in time. There was another car that did the same thing just before we got there. I pulled off behind them. Just as we did a car coming in the opposite direction didn't slow down and slammed through 2 cows! The sound when something like this VROOOMMM...PLUUUISHHHCK!!! Elder Bautista and I looked at eachother and couldn't believe what we saw. The lady in the car was okay but the car was destroyed. It was hard not to laugh cause just a minute before we were talking about how fun it would be to go cow tipping... umm this beat it hands down haha. It was one of the most amazing things I have ever seen. The one cow survived and the other didn't do so hot, blood everywhere it was a scene. we went over to take a picture of the injured cow laying on the side of the road and it stood up! The one lady asked if it was okay to which Elder Bautista responed "it's Pooping!" I was like woah it scared the poop out of him.  The injured cow didn't sound so happy. It was amazing and everyone was okay except for the one cow. If you want some ground beef it should be on the way.
 
anyways that is the life here right now. We are going to go play volleyball here in a bit with some non members wish us luck. Hopefully we wont beat them so bad they don't want to talk to us...

Pleasant Update


Hi,
 
Sorry it has been awhile and that this is just going to be a short note.
 
Elder Buatista and dme are opening up a new zone and that has us sent on up to Mount Pleasant. It is in Sanpete county and I have served on the other end of it already. That was Gunnison.
 
Well Elder Bautista and I get along and the area has been fun to learn together. I will have a better letter next week. All is well here.
