Letter Dated May 9, 2011

Dean Mom & Dad;

Yea I got the Email, so anyway yea it was good to have a little chat for a while, haha.  Cool how you got the Blog up and Rollin.  How do you have it work? Do you post my emails on it or what?

The end of a long stretch of a man made breaker.  This is a spot for fishermen.
Transfers, at least this one, we just all met up at a huge bus terminal, those who went far away got on a bus, we just met up and took a taxi to our area. Usually you stay in a area for three transfers, each transfer is 6 weeks.

So lets see going west on Cuidad de ONeglia we should be on the south side. Honestly I don't have any good land marks around our house that I can really think of. Our house is is really two houses connected, we live in the back. Then another house sharing our yard area. And I found maybe another name for the street Calle 28, it might also be called Castro Barros. The Church is east and a few blocks south, and its pretty close to the ocean. That's all I really know right now about it.

I really don't have much to say about this past week. I kinda just got to know the area and our investigators.  We have a family called Panisa, the two boys 16 and 14 are baptized and we will baptize the two girsl 10 and 9 in the next few weeks. The family has two parents who like us, but haven't listened to us, and the grandparents who are interested but haven't listened.

Next the Zendronis are recently activated members and their son just got baptized, through this family we will probably be able to baptize another 10 year old girl, and maybe her family.
Then I met family Macia who like the missionaries, but they don't go to church and aren't baptized.

Those are our main families right now, there are a few others that I haven't had much of a chance to meet yet. Should be able meet them this next week.

Oh I did have to get up and introduce myself and bear my testimony in front of 150 people in church on Sunday in spanish.  That's always fun, haha.

We went to central today. That went pretty well.  Anyways, don't have much else to say... hope to see some of that lost mail this week, haha.


love Elder Obray
