Spiderman Spiderman, does whatever a Spider can.

This is from Monday September 9, 2013.

Hey everybody how's it going? If I don't answer your emails every week I apologize. I haven't quite figured out how to fit all that I have to do in 45 min. I will try to figure out a better system for next week.

Anways I've seen some stinking huge spiders here. We found one in our house the other day that probably had a leg span of eight inches. It took a half of a can of raid to kill it. And there's some places that just have tons of huge spiders just hanging out. The spiders however were not the coolest part of my week. This week I got my first baptism. It was really cool. The guy's name is German (like on The District 2) I don't know him super well because most of the lessons with him happened before I got there. I do know that the Gospel has definitley changed his life. He used to smoke and drink coffee and everything. He accepted the Word of Wisdom and he saw the blessings of it in his life. The benefits to not smoking are very obvious but he said the when he quit drinking coffee he could sleep much better and he felt better. Big surprise eh? My companion baptized him yesterday. It was really cool to see his journey end and start at the same time. 

There are some big problems here. There are some serious morality issues. I swear in almost all of our investigator families the parents are not married. I'm going to see a lot of weddings I have a feeling. In fact we have one planned for the 28th. I've never planned a wedding before so it should be interesting. One of our investigators was hammered the other day. I've never seen anyone so drunk, not that I've seen that many drunk people. I also bought alcohol for the first time that same day. Our investigator came with his bottle of alcohol and we told him to dump it out. He wouldn't because he said he just bought it. So we payed him 5 bucks for his bottle then we dumped it out in the dirt. The guy was pumped he came and gave us big hugs. Then he picked up my companion and carried him around and then he picked up me and carried me around and told us to take a picture. Unfortunatley I didn't have my camera. It was kind of weird funny and sad but we're going to try to help him out. 

Anyways I'm going to try to figure something out so I can write more. 

See you all later
