Hola Everyone!
Well, the language is coming. I can teach most of what I want to say in Spanish. I still have to put a few English words in here and there, but that's alright. It's alot better than when I got here! I can understand what's being said to me for the most part, just enough to understand the main idea fo what's being said. But that's about it.
I was feeling bad because in our lessons it was mostly me talking because Elder Johnson doesn't like to say anything unless its 100 % Spanish. So I felt like I was talking over the lessons and I didn't want that. So I told him that it's okay to throw a few English words in when he speaks and the Lord can't help us unless we try. Well, now he barely gives me any space to talk, haha, and when I start to say something he cuts me off. I've decided I'll give him one more lesson and then if things don't change I'll talk to him. I've gotta let him have the floor to make up for as many times as I led the lessons. I'm glad he talks more now though.
Today I got put in as the new District Leader over our District. I guess we'll see how that goes. haha. I think it will be alright, I just gotta trust in the Lord!
I got Elder Johnson mad at me tonight because he wanted to go to the Fireside to get a good seat. But he wanted to go at like 5:45 and the Fireside didn't even start until 7:00. He wasn't happy with me when I told him I wasn't going to go that early, we still went a little after 6 though. I think we're good now though.
Tonight I went out and took pictures with Elder Volksen, Elder Reber, Elder Porras and Elder Converse. It was fun getting to talk with then all for a little bit. (Elder Johnson was still mad at me at that time so I tried not to take too much time).
Don't worry about my shoulder, its healing pretty good already.
Ask the Lyon's why I haven't heard from them. And the rest of our family.
Thanks for all your support. I love you all.
Elder Westwood
