I do not remember that word in English, but it means new companions. I will be with Elder Hancock, who I have yet to meet, and we will be running like mad on lessons so that Cesar can get baptized Saturday. Hope we make it.
It was was nice being with Elder Phelps, and now I am going to be with another gringo. "Hancock" sounds pretty gringo to me at least.
We are going to have to start over on investigators basically. We figured out that those we were visiting were in love with Elder Phelps and do not want to come to church or progress if he won´t be there. That seems to be a pretty common thing, actually. The Paz Martinez family still wants to get baptized, which is good; we just have to get them married, and yeah. Woo!
Cesar had to drive a Narc around for 5 hours on Sunday; the guy showed up at his house and ordered him (stoned and drunk) to take him places, nowhere in particular, just around the city. His daughter is not married to her boyfriend (she is 15, he 18), and she also is not legally the daughter of her father due to her parents never being married. So marrying them against their will is impossible. We are working on how we can help them with that. His son (6) has the same story book game of the Disney movies that we had and played with a lot. We explained a bunch of things to them--namely much of the Law of Chastit--and we gave them The Family: A Proclamation To The World.
Life is really complicated for some reason right now.
Thats is all the time I have. Bye!
Saludos, Amor, y Todo que puedo ofrecer a tí,
Salutations, Love, and All that I have to offer you,
Elder Scott
