5.12.13 Huancavilca, Ecuador


Family,

The soccer player`s name that we spoke about on the phone is Nasuti.  He plays for Emelec.  Everyone says I look just like him. After talking yesterday, I decided to start writing down a lot of the things I have learned in these last two years.  I started writing this morning and have already written eight pages of unorganized knowledge that I have attained in these 21 months.  I think if I take fifteen minutes at the end of each day to write, I could fill up this little journal and be able to give it to Cam when I get home.  

Well, like you say, I don’t really have much more to talk about.  We ate in the mall today and bought our groceries for the week.  We are probably going to go home now and sleep.  My companion LOVES going shopping with me...  It is a little like going shopping with Dad.  I asked him a bunch of times if he REALLY needed a pack of 32 colored pencils.  And when we went to buy soap, I picked out the cheapest one.  He told me that that soap sucks and that we should buy the more expensive soap.  I told him any soap is better than just the water we have been using to wash the dishes the past 2 days.  Then, when I picked out the cheap water, he said the same thing and I told him that it was better than drinking out of the toilet and he just kept laughing the whole time.  

Anyways, this week, because of mother’s day, we didn’t bring a lot of people to church and so we won’t have any baptisms this week.  But, my companion and I have had two baptisms this month so far, so my companion is very happy.

Love,

Elder McRae
