Tew, Coleman T

Wow! Qué la que hay! Holy crap, how is it already P-day? Mission time is so wack. It's like every day feels long, but the weeks go by like a flash. It's insane because I don't know what day of the week it is usually until daily planning, lol! Okay, so this P-day we decided to go see a cool water hole in the mountains of Puerto Rico. (Basically a tiny hill, lol, but tons of jungle and trees and lizards and iguanas.) Wow, that was so funny. So we parked and some guy said something in Spanish, and I'm like, "I don't know." I am thankful for companions and kids in my district that understand. Basically, this guy wanted us to park somewhere else because we were across the street from a church, and we shouldn't be on their camera. So we ignored him and went to the trail. So we walked on this trail to the cave and the little forest hole. We walked probably like half a mile, and we see it. It's good, all is well and cool. And there are these Polish people ...

WOAH, qué es lo que hay?! Sorry for the Tuesday email. Our P-day this week is Tuesday because our whole mission had a special conference with Elder Nielsen (he's in the Presidency of the Quorum of the Seventy) and Elder Gavarret (also in the Quorum of the Seventy, but he's the president over the Caribbean area). So that's why my P-day is on Tuesday. We had an amazing conference with them yesterday. It was super good and super cool. I love to meet those guys in person. To be honest, I thought they'd be all cocky and power-hungry and scary because, well, they're super high up in the church. But they're just normal people, honestly better because they're super humble. I really liked them. They had super good insights on things. We talked a lot about why we need a church so we could explain to our amigos why we need to go to church and attend a church. It was super good, super cool. If you are curious about it, message me and I'll give you a lesson on it. :)...

Que hay? ¡¡¡¡¡Cómo están?? ¡Super bien, nos alegramos! Alright, so this week we did exchanges, so we had district council on Thursday morning. And then, for those of you who don't know what an exchange is, it's for the district leader to get to know his district. So, my companion is the district leader, so every exchange I have to go somewhere else. ¡Vamos! So, essentially, Elder Rivera and I were together while my companion, Elder Christensen, stayed here in Arecibo. I got to go to Vega Baja this week for a night. So, an exchange is for 24 hours; you trade off companions. So, I went to Vega Baja and stayed the night. It's kind of like missionary sleepovers!!! Anyway, back to district council. We met up at district council, and we have to have that every week. And so, my companion figured we could just trade right after for 24 hours and be back Friday afternoon. ¡Perfecto! So, we finished district council, and Elder Rivera and Elder Sermano don't have a Little Caesars i...
