Hey Everybody,
Happy late Halloween!! It was a little rough here Saturday
night, mainly because everybody was out or having parties. As a matter of fact,
the last like week has been really rough for teaching appointments, but we have
been contacting like crazy and have a lot of new potential investigators so
that is great. We have been starting to run out of investigators who actually
have the desire to progress, so hopefully we can really start to make progress
with these new contacts.
The language is definitely getting a lot better. It is much
easier to communicate and to teach, but once we start talking about anything
but the gospel I start getting very lost. It's really hard because I try to
study these things during Language Study time, but there are just so many
things we have to do that sometimes the study time just isn't available. But
I'm trying my best to get the most out of the situation so hopefully I will continue
to progress.
As for the soccer, we do different things every P-day. About
2 weeks a transfer we play soccer for a few hours. This week we had a picnic at
a park by a river. It was super cool because it totally reminded me of like
Yosemite or something, but then everything around it is developed so that's
kinda lame.
Something crazy happened in ward council yesterday. The
bishop found out that I can play piano, and there is no one else in the ward
that plays so they asked me to play in sacrament meeting and to teach a class
on playing piano. How nuts is that?!? I barely know how to play and haven't
touched a piano for a month since the piano is not in the church building right
now but I am going to be teaching a class if I receive permission from the
Mission President. This is going to be an awesome opportunity to serve.
I hope everything is going well at home and can't wait to
see you next month.
Love you guys.
Elder Parker
