Dear Mom and Dad,
Hey, I’m doing well this week. Just enjoying my time out here in Quinindé, like I should be, no? I think so. I dunno. I’m kinda tired. We went to Esmeraldas today, and I learned a little bit about rugby. It’s fun, and you get to hit people. That is way fun, too. This week, well, the highlight would be going and meeting my kid. There’s a story, kinda. I got the call, and they say that there are 15 gringos coming in, and only one latino. Cool. Look at them odds, man. Way good. So we get there, and there are 15 Gringos, 1 Latino, and 2 Brazilians, something new. Cool. So we go in, and one of the Brazilians looks to be around 35 or 40, no joke. I’m talking to Poston, my comp from the CCM, and say, “Watch, with my luck, he´ll be my comp.” So we go in. First called, Cruz, from my district. He gets put with the Latin. Freak, are you kidding? Two Latins in my district. Cool. Next, I get called. And who do I get put with? The friggin 35 year old Brazilian. Are you joking? He is learning Spanish, man. He only speaks Portugese, so I can’t even help him or talk to him in English. But it’s really fun. He knows a lot of Spanish, and is a pretty cool guy. Never, EVER woulda thought that I´d be with a Brazilian, but hey, that’s life. Other than that, everything is the same. Halloween is today, but I just dressed up as a missionary again. Not too original, but that’s about all that you can do, right? Craziness. Ok. I love you guys a lot, and I will put a picture of my shoes on. Oh, my camera basically broke. Some stupid little kid knocked it off the table and out of my hands. Freak. I think it´ll cost like 40 bucks here, too, to fix it. I’m not sure. I might have the latinos here put in the camera, so the guy will charge less. We´ll see. Well, love you guys. Miss ya. Can’t believe it’s already almost time for Christmas. My gosh.
Love,
Elder Jace Reber
