9-9-07 Hello.... did you get my pictures? well.... this week has felt like 5
weeks put into one... things have been pretty difficult with my comp.
ummmmm I really dont have much to say... I'm sorry this week has just
been a struggle .... I love you... hope you have a good week. Elder
Christensen
The following week he explained a little more: 9-17-07 Hello... thanks for all the prayers... prayer is funny...I know how to
use it... like I can use a cell phone... but I don't fully understand how
it functions... I could feel a difference during the week and I knew
that people were praying for me....maybe someday I will be able to
understand prayer completely. Yeah so this week was a bit better. Part
of the reason why it has been a struggle with my comp is because it is
difficult for us to communicate.... his English is really broken... and
he cant explain things to me sometimes.. we both really like each other
it just gets really frustrating sometimes.... but things sound good
back home... this week someone was supposed to feed us on Sunday but
they forgot and none of the missionaries had food.. so they came over to
our boarding and I tried to cook up some stuff to keep us going until Sunday... Chicken.. veg.. with this sauce stuff... It was ok... plus it
was healthy. Well I cut my hair today...I have administered over 30
haircuts on mission... to people from 5 different countries... that's
pretty cool eh?

Do You Smell Something Burning?
7/30/07 I burnt the bathtub... the bathroom has always been smelling funny so we
put a candle in there... we always blow it out but we forgot the one
time... we came back and opened the door of our boarding and it was full
of dark dark smoke... you could not see a thing... so I ran inside and
the plastic tub was on fire... I put it out... and I inhaled alot oh
nasty air...I will probably die 5 years early... it was bad... all the
walls are stained with smoke and we have to replace the tub... we will
probably have to move... everyone has been real nice and positive about
the whole thing though.... it was quite the intresting day... I will
give you more info when I get home... it was a pretty crazy day....

Reminders of Testimony
2007 ok well this week was pretty good. we prayed about
where to tract and we went to this area where we felt prompted and it
was just a bunch of old age homes and weird stores and things... and
the one normal house there... this lady with a hyperactive child
answered the door... and she was like what can this 19 year old kid
tell me and she talked about how all churches are just to make money...
so I just bore testimony to her and gave her a family proclamation. she
called us a day later and told us she wanted to here our message.. and
to make this short... we have 2 really good new investigators..
