We met with president Madriaga this week 10/15

Family~
What's up?
Well its wicked hot here ! I'm getting pretty tan it's pretty sweet!
I'm excited for hunting when I get home and camping too... I feel like I'm camping right now! No one has cars everyone cooks over fires lots of people sleep outside or their houses are garbage. There are animals running loose everywhere no paved roads ..It's really something!
This week has gone by way fast and I am finally learning Spanish! ha not fast.. but I am speaking! We had our meetings with President Madriaga and he told me to stop stressing the Spanish because I just need to the voice of the spirit and the Spanish will come. well hope that works out cause I need Spanish too ha ha!

So, all the members were laughing at me on Sunday, Me and my companion went up to bare our testimonies and my comp stood on the stool and said I just wanted to be as tall as my comp so I stood on it after him and everyone laughed at us but it was a real riot! ha ha

Well this week we got some weird news we had a sweet family and we thought were going to be having some baptisms. We have been teaching them all for about a month and I was showing them some pictures of me with one of the families that we know here and they said she just got out of prison she was selling drugs out of her house so we have been in a big drug house last couple weeks so need to figure out what that's about haha ! We work with the members every day because without help from our ward we wouldn't have a strong ward. It's pretty cool we started working with the youth we have had 3 kids that just decided to go on missions! So that is pretty cool I know it's not baptisms but it's something even better!

I sent you a sweet package hope it gets there soon mail has been getting here really fast I hear they say it has only been taking 2 weeks to get here from the states pretty cool.but then it takes me another 2 weeks to get that because they have to drive it out here or we go into Asuncion so I will get it next week they call and tell us what we have though so its sweet knowing my family loves me and sends me things ha I love you guys so much! thanks ha

We have a new investigator this week just need to get him to stop smoking. His name is Marco he is a good guy.
Most of the time we are trying to find old members to bring them back to church

I found out today part of my area is a island! but we can't go to it because we can't get on a boat. We have lots of members that live on the island.
THIS IS A PICTURE OF ME EATING A PIRANAH

This is a picture of me with the Bishops kids. They remind me of Gracey and Brinnly.
The Picture of the sunset is outside of our apartment. It's pretty awesome!
The other one is of me with a members kids.
I gotta go! We have to do our grocery shopping. I'm going to have to dive in my account this month because we are out of water and I have to travel to Asuncion (I should get reimbursed for that)!
I love you Family!
Love,
Elder Osborne
