Ok so i didnt quite make it to the border. I they dropped me off alittle early. Anyway there is a small town inbetween the border and San Antonio named Hondo texas. If you googlemap it, it is only about a mile and a half from one side of town to the other and the nearest town is about 20 miles away, I am there. Talking with the ward it seems like there is alot of work to do out here though, out of 400 people on the ward roster only 70-100 people are considered active. Most people in Hondo have heard our message so it seems like that is where the most potentail is. Hopefully we can reactivate 300 people and get a few people baptized as well.Alright well i love ya all

Alright so last week we had a great week here in the TSAM ( Texas San Antonio Mission). Our zone had 6 people baptized yesterday which is Fantastic. And yesterday i had my first chance to baptize someone and it was sweet. He is a 10 year old Kid named Johnathan just an awesome kid. About a month and a half ago his grandma and mom came up to the bishop and told him they wanted him to get baptized. We taught for three week each tuesday and had a date for him to get baptized when he completely fell off the face of the planet and missed his date. It was strange because he has been coming to church for awhile with his grandma. After two week we just dropped him and moved on. And then last week his grandma called out of the blue on day and told us he was at the church and we needed to teach him. We come over taught him and got him baptized Sunday. It was such a relief it so frusarateing to see the easy ones slip between the cracks, but it all worked out for the best so i guess it all good.AdiosElder Loveless

Alright so it turn i do have some stories for ya all the. First So for p-day we're able to go and play sports or go shopping food. so two weeks ago we went to a member house which was a ballin house right on the river with their own baseball field football field pool, just ballin. But so we were playing a little football and i caught one pass and came down from the pass and some how my feet go tangled with another elders and i came down hard on my shoulder and just heard a pop. I stood up and tried to start playing again but my arm wouldn't lift up it sucked. So after a few minutes i decided i probably could play without lifting up my arm so i went inside. Two hours later i was sitting in the emergency room. They told me that i had torn my rotator cuff. I set up an appointment for a specialist. At the specialist office, a week later, they correct that diagnosis and told me i had separated my collar bone from my shoulder blade. They grade them from 1-5 1- it pops out and goes back in 3- you get surgery and 5 it sticks out of the flesh. Turns out i have a 2 which means out of socket but i don't have surgery. But everything is fine and my arm has been able to raise more and more everyday. I want to stress i am fine and there is no need to worry about me Also i is funny that you guys asked my about weird food cause later that like 2 days after i talked to you i had the most disgusting meal of my life. Alright so it went a little like this. So we went over a members house. She had feed us a few time before and but that night she decided to treat us with a "mexican delicasy", Mundo. For those of you that don't know what mundo is i will explain it. Mundo is the inner lining of the cows stomach and intestines. There two types one has a honeycomb texture on one side and a really slimy texture on the other. the second has a almost hairy texture To be Continued......
Mundo... it is just covered in "cilia" with a slimy side. It was nasty. I could get past the fact that my stomach was going to digest stomach i don't know how that would or should wark stomach should digest stomach. And she did a really good job of preparing it but occasionally you just gott a whiff of straight raw sewage. Horrible. but it gets worse. As a side dish we hash Chicharon. Chicharon is raw uncooked pig fat. just a big slab of pig fat. I almost puked while sitting there. Anyway i apologize if anyones stomach is sick now but i had to tell ya all about but i have to go now. See ya
