My new companion and I worked like crazy this week. His name, Elder Barney, is easy for people to pronounce because they all know the children’s TV show about the purple dinosaur. He’s from California and has been on his mission a month and a half longer than I have. We’re both pretty new, which is putting our Spanish knowledge to the test.
It’s Carnaval, which is basically just a big festival to celebrate the things of the world and get as drunk as possible. It’s not had a huge impact on us, just that we’ve had to steer clear of the main road where all of the partying is happening.
Thanks for your love and support. Jesus Christ loves you!
Elder Hansen
