Hey Everybody
Well this week has been a Really Crazy week… we had Zone Conferences… Elder Zeballos of the 70 Came and Talked with us… that was really neat to get to hear from him he mainly Talked to the latins and told them that they need to Learn English,, Elder Zeballos Studied with President Madariaga At BYU and they were Classmates… He was showing us the translation from English to Spanish in the scriptures and how there are some mistakes… and that if we want to know something we need to go to the source of where it came from… for the Past Year now I have been doing my studies in Spanish and going to English for help on words or sentences… but after Zeballos told us to start doing our Studies in English I think I will start doing it so that I can Know better what the scriptures are telling to me…
So Thursday was a very sad, depressing, Funny Memorable day for us… we had zone conference at 8:30… it had been raining for 2-3 hours, I was in the Shower at 7 and then all of a sudden I hear a lot of screaming and Sanderson was screaming for a squeegee and telling us to man our battle stations… he comes swinging the bathroom door open and takes the squeegee… and runs away Screaming HURRY UP GET OUT NOOOOWWWWW…. So I hurry up walk out and see sanderson in the doorway with the squeegee pushing water out the door… well trying to push it out but it was just to much… what happened was that We have a front door which goes to the living room and then our room and a side door to our kitchen which is in the middle of the house and then sandersons room is in the back and all of the house is connected by small hallways on the inside… on the outside we have a 6ft wall going around and a Stream on the other side of the wall anyway sanderson was in the kitchen door way trying to shove water out the door(not succeeding) but trying his best… and wing was at the front door trying to stop it there … what happened was our patio filled up with water and then busted open the doors to the point that there was a river coming into our house from two doors…. We relized that we couldn’t stop the Paraguayan Rain it was just to strong so we put all of our stuff up high and grabed the stuff we needed for Zone conference and changed at the church… I was rolling around on a rolly chair singing pirates of the carrabian… hahah we just had to give up we took our things to the office and admitted defeat… by the time we left our house it was filled up to my knee in water… then when conference was ove elder sanderson and I go back to see the damage… the Photos speak for them selves… our house smelled like a sour baby diaper… and mud was everywhere… some of the water had drained out but other parts had not… Yesterday The Hermana Madariaga sent someone to our house to get it cleaned up…
So this week was very exciting for that reason… now we have a cool story to tell…
Well I hope everything goes great this week with you guys… I love you so much… im greatful for the opportunity that I have to be here I know this is the best place for me right now… Dad I cant wait for you to see the temple either… It is beautiful… the members in the ward im in right now work in the temple… ones name is Hermano Molinas he was baptized when he was like 25-30 and now hes 60+- and he is a temple sealer here he was the first temple sealer called to the paraguay temple… he was showing us his papers of the church… and his temple calling was in English… (he cant read English) and al he knew was that it said that he was called to serve in the temple as a temple worker and that’s it… I asked him if he wanted me to translate it for him in Spanish and he just started to cry and said yes… so I did and that was a super cool thing to do… it was about the size of a note card but was signed by President Hinckley… and then I gave it to him about a month ago then in church… He gave a talk about temple and in his talk he some how worked it into his calling…and he recited recited his calling in word for word of what I translated it into… and he was getting choked up and when he got done he looked at me and just winked hahahaha then I started crying….
Any way I cant wait for you to meet him as well
Well I love you so much
Elder Dayley
