Noodles and Hamburger - July 11 Email

Dear Family,

This was another awesome week in the sweet land of Guyana! I have finally somewhat adjusted to it down here, and am starting to love the work, also the people! They have so little, yet they always offer us things like Coke and fruit and other bought goods, they can not cook for us in Guyana, but they wish they could they are so loving. so we normaly cook or buy food. We eat a lot of noodles and hamburger just because it is easy to cook. We also eat a lot of fish and chips they are heavenly! A less active member we work with all the time Brother Pitamber, catches fish for a living so we are going to buy some fresh fish from him tonight. The Pitamber Family is awesome I will have to get a picture of them to send you next week. The locals love curry though, its alright nothing too special. Lots of rice and stuff like that. Oh yeah lots of wounderful fruit!

There are no mountains here in Guyana, its flat as can be. I am thankful for that. My feet are doing great healing up good, I didnt send that picture to worry you sorry.  Are Branch is Kinda small but they do everything, we even invite them to do the baptisms, to really make our investigators feel welcomed into thebranch, so we just have to make sure the Branch Presidency does everything right, because they are brand new and havent recieved much training. So it is a little differant then our ward at home.

Well I better get, I love you all and am doing great! We didnt have any baptisms the last two weeks but we have one this week, so I am excited for that. I still have so much to learn though, sometimes I still struggle when I teach but I know the Lord is capable of doing all things if we show faith in him I am so lucky to be here and bein the service of God.

Love Elder Hartshorn
