Family,
So I will start off by just saying that if I stay here in Pasaje until the end of my mission, leaving will be so hard. I really can’t describe how amazing the town, the people, the church, and the members are. I have had so many experiences where I look at my companion and just say, don’t you feel like you are in heaven?? He just tells me his blisters hurt. I work my companion to death every day. He is very prepared spiritually and mentally, but physically, he needs some work. In the mornings we run and lift weights and then run some more. He says I walk faster than anyone he has ever seen in his life. So he will be losing a lot of weight quick. But he is a great companion. I have very little things to teach him.
M. Crow got baptized and confirmed this week and she is very happy. Juanito, her son, is so great. He has helped so much in his mom’s conversion process. They are both doing great. L. M., my super rich convert, is giving us referrals, and he just got the priesthood… I can see him as ward mission leader in a couple months. Sebastian also got the priesthood and his mom will get baptized this week. Rafael, went to the temple for his first time in his life and he showed me the pictures he took and he took a picture with two of my converts from Guayaquil!!!!!!! I couldn’t believe how he met up with them. It was so awesome! So I am doing great and enjoying every second of my mission.
The members are so awesome and I have a great relationship with them. Today, we ate at a lady’s house who is from the other ward in Pasaje. But since Pasaje is so small we know all the members and they are awesome. Our neighbor is a rich guy who drives a BMW and is not interested in the church at all. But, he loves the fact that I know all about the Ecuadorian league and the Ecuadorian National team and play soccer that he always talks to us. He has a very strong vocabulary which doesn’t bug me at all but it is funny because my companion can’t believe how I can love so much a bum like him. But I really do love all the people here in Pasaje. Our investigators are great and I can’t wait to bring them all to the general conference in April.
I also got a letter from Dantrell and it was awesome. It sounds like he has changed and matured so much over these 20 months. It will be fun to get to see him again. Anyways, everything here is amazing. I hope all is good back at home.
Love,
Elder McRae
