Interesting and Not So Interesting‏

Dear family and friends,

 

     The most interesting part of my week happened on Saturday when Elder Kelley ran into the back of a parked car. His knee broke the tail light and he crashed to the ground. He really bashed his elbow and his knee until he wasn't in any condition to ride a bike. We're probably going to get a car. We just got back from the chiropractor's and he wrote us a note telling us that Elder Kelley needs to stay off the bike. Oh well I guess this should make up for all the lost time caused by him trying to recover. Two days ago on Sunday I went on exchanges with my district leader, Elder Gerber. The reason why is because Elder Gerber's companion, Elder King, was sick so me and Gerber had companions that were out of commission so we went on exchanges. Elder Gerber and Elder King are Spanish missionaries and since their ward hadn't started yet I tagged along with Elder Gerber and went to his ward. As you all know Sunday was Fast Sunday and I felt prompted to bear my testimony in the Spanish ward. Elder Gerber came up with me because he thought I was going to need him to translate. I told him that I was going to speak what Spanish I knew without a translator. I got up there, bore it, and then sat down afterwards. All the people there said I spoke good Spanish and that they could understand me just fine. I felt really proud of myself for that. 

 

       Not much else to say other than the fact that the members are saying things like "Oh you're just about to go home". Oh my gosh I hate it when they say that.

 

Love,

 

Elder Boothe
