Week Twenty-seven and a half: ¡Dont eat the tacos!

This monday we went to eat some tacos that we heard were good, so we went.... and the next day i was reallyl sick. so all week weve been in the offices and directly after that in the house because the presidents wife says that we can go out to work untill im completely better and im still kind of sick so were still resting. I always just thought getting sick from tacos was a steriotype, but its totally true! never again! and they werent even that good! and they were expensive!

Today we went to the supermarket (called "soriana", its kind of like wal mart) and i bought some apples from washington, so i think ill be good in no time!

At the end of last week we met a man named miguel. he partly mentally and physically disabled, but he is amazing! hes so precious haha he is always sharing little parables and things with us that he has heard in church haha like salt and soup. we have to share our salt so others can have their soup taste better and so we dont have too much salt. (we should share the things we have with others who dont have much). The first day we went to teach him, he told us he had been reading a book about God and that he was going to bring it out for us and my companion and me though "oh great hes going to bring out some catholic book that says that mormons are bad because he says he always goes to mass" and then he brough out a gospel principles book! we couldnt believe our eyes! it tourns out he hadnt really been reading much because he has a reallyl hard time reading, but from the 2 or 3 pages he had read he said he knew it talked about God, so i guess thats good! we havnt been able to see him all week because we have been stuck in the house, but hopefully next week ill have more news from our friend Miguel!

Challenge: Share your salt so your soup isnt too salty! I love this story that Miguel shared with us because it is so true. sometimes we get caught up in trying to get all the salt we can and then we complain that our soup doesnt taste good, but we dont know why. its because you have too much salt! Be aware of others around you and look outward this week to find those in need who might need help and help them. Serve others, and i promise youll feel better than if you hadnt!

Les amo mucho! con amor, Elder Wagner
