Hola todos!
Feliz año nuevo!!! To celebrate here in Nicaragua,
they make a dummy (piñata like thing) that looks like an old man, they fill it
with explosives, and blow it up. Happy new year Nicaragua.
Well life keeps
flying on by. but here is what happened this week. This week was changes and I
got a new companion. His Name is Elder Brooks, and he is from Houston. He has 4
months in the mission (one less transfer than me) and he is a cool guy. We get
along really well, and have been working really hard together. I am excited to
see what this change brings.
Well I am running short on time but here we go.
This week we have done a lot of finding and we are having some good success. We
found four new families to teach this week, so hopefully things will go well
with them. We celebrated the new year with lots of members and menos activos,
and that was fun. we had lots of food, but strangely nothing too weird. I am starting
to really like Nicaraguan food. It is still weird, but all is good.
This P day
we went to the farm of the white family in the branch here, and that was really
fun. we took lots of pictures and had a good time. the funny thing is that it
looked a lot like Texas back country.
Okay, funny story for the week: We were
at a member’s house and they have a duck. Elder Brooks wanted a picture with it
so he picked it up and it freaked out and tried to bite him, so he decided to
throw it at me. It hit me in the head scratched me up, and then proceeded to
poop on me. It was pretty funny, and if any of you were wondering, no, my luck
has not changed.
Things are going well here and I am excited for this next
week. Hope everything is going well wherever you all are! Thanks for everything!
Elder Erickson
