Hola Amigos,
I wasn't expecting to be able to write today. We were locked in our houses again for the day. But pres. is allowing us to leave to email. Usually I take little notes from my journal of what I'm going to write about on pday but I didn't for the reason above. I'm just gonna give a quick update of how the wave is down here and whatever else I can remember from this week. I'm loving Las Mercedes! It's super dope here! Everyday is a diferent experience. Yes, we are missionaries doing the work but we always see new things that interest us and we find new people everyday. This week was a nice full week of missionary work. I dig that. We have been teaching our normal investigators. We still have the problem of getting them to the church. If we can solve that we will have our success. We found a new fam this week. It's 5 girls--The mom, and her daughters--ages: 16, 13, 9, and 8. Let me just tell you they are crazy. We actually weren't even planning on teaching this family in the first place, but when we passed by their house the girls swarmed me and started interrogating me and telling me to translate stuff into English. It got to the point where they were begging for us to come into their house. They ended up feeding us dinner! The older girls are plain gippers, or flirters. We chatted with this fam for a tad and then we asked if we could share a quick message. They accepted. I think it was one of the most awkward lessons we've given. The gippers were staring at me the whole time and one of them kept touching my ears. Gulp. By the end they actually seemed very interested in our message and wanted to learn more. As we were leaving their house my comp walked through the gate. Here it gets creepy. As my comp was on the other side the mom shut the gate and locked it so I couldn't leave. I was trippin. I knew they were joking but they kept me locked in for like 5 minutes! They talked to me about marrying a Honduran girl and about my eyes and other weird stuff! Finally the mom let me leave. We have 2 other girls that we teach that live exactly across the street from the creepy fam. One is 17 and the other 15. They saw us talking to the creepy fam yesterday and now they are jealous. They drew us pictures of hearts saying I love you. They are trying to win us over. Enough with that craziness. We are teaching a few other people our goal is to get some of these people to the church. Hey guys. If you didn't know it's almost Christmas. I'm very happy to be in this country for that special day. It's really gonna help me focus on the true meaning of Christmas, the birth of our Savior. I challenge you to try and give as much as you can in this epoca navidena (Christmas time) and focus on the true meaning of Christmas. Keep on Illuminating the world and being cool. Have a grrrrrreat week alright? Elder Sullivan
