letter numero 5.

hollaaaa, wutsup???? thanks for writing! im killin it in the letter department. haha no but i love hearing from all of you. You all sound like your doing really well. but everything is wayyy good here. We had an awesome week. so i was in a trio for a little but now im back to just me and elder Pacheco!! haha i love him. But our third got sent to the field early because his spanish was like fluent. its crazy he came speaking like fluently. But he got sent to san fernando si i'll see him soon enough! I'll be out there in 4 weeks! cannot wait. i'm soooo excited. But i sooo love it here. My spanish totally kicked in this week. it kinda clicked. everything we do is in spanish, during the day, in class and when we teach and it finally kicked in. This last week in TRC(teaching) i was able to say like everything i wanted to! it was so cool. The gift of tongues is soooo real because there is no way in the world i would be speaking spanish like this without loads of help from the Lord. Teaching is by far in a way my favorite thing because the spirit gets soooo strong and its so crazy how much the spirit directs the lessons. its sooo cool. Going back to teaching with just two instead of 3 is different but i like it way more. With three people its way easier to get kinda lost at where you want to go. Two is perfect. Its so weird it feels like yesterday i was writing my last email, the days all just blurr together here. Also i think I'm getting fat. Threes a scale here but i don't want to get on it. haha o dad! so they just started sending gringos back to columbia and a bunch of them are in my zone. I'm just a little jealous. haha no jota ka, i cant wait for san fernando. At a fireside the other day they talked about how they choose where you serve. Its so cool. Truly by revelation. So we went to the temple today and did sealings. It was sooooo cool. We did it last week too. I love it. So sister Lewis is here! haha its crazy she's in my zone. So i see here everywhere. Like all day. And she's in my ward. She's awesome. I'm actually with her right now. haha Ahh but i love it here. Its not only cool to learn about the gospel more and stuff but its sooooo cool becoming more in tune with the spirit. Its sooo crucial and so real. I'm learning that the best missionaries are not just good teachers. They are the ones who love the people and teach with the spirit. I'm learning to be more in tune with the spirit so i can teach more with it. But it takes a lot of time and effort. So their completely changing the way missionary work works. They haven't totally filled us in on it all but its going to be very cool. Their keeping preach my gospel but changing the way in which you teach. Not exactly teaching them but helping along the way through the conversion process. I'm really excited. It wont be here for a few months though so I'll learn it in the field because they've already started it in the field. So this hermana that was here left to san fernando and wrote me. She says its awesome and she loves it. She's in hollywood right now and said she's teaching a lot. And apparently most of the trainers are native speakers so hopefully i get one. haha So i got a huuuuge thing of suuper good cookies but there was no letter with it. was that you mom? haha no idea. But anyway my time is up. I love all of you! keep writing please!
love, Elder Foulger
