Thanks for the pictures you sent! It´s comforting to see you guys doing well and having fun. This week we´ve been seeing many families with problems. Every night as we try to sleep we just hear a lot of yelling coming from the floor below us and across the street as well. And talking to them, I´ve really come to recognize how many problems we´ve avoided simply by living the commandments. In every situation it always seems to begin with someone not living the Word of Wisdom, the Law of Chastity, etc. It´s really made me consider the value of every commandment. Even the law of tithing protects us. The commandment of service or to love God first and then the rest steers us away from pride and brings us healthy relationships. I am sooo thankful I could be raised in a family who acknowledged God's plan and commandments. And now it´s just so much more special for me to share with other families, and then watch the beautiful results when the Lord´s ways are applied. Also, if you could mention that family in your prayers. We´ve been teaching someone that lives below us, and he´s been pretty stressed with all those affairs.
We tried to make raviolli, but I´m not exactly proud of it.
Chicken Nigth? Yes, please!
There´s this worm called Suri and it´s a delacacy, here in Tingo. Yes, they eat the worm. Did I eat the worm? Yes, I did!
This is Stanford and he tasted more or less like chicken but with a cottage-chesse-style texture on the inside. They´re actually not too bad. I´ll be sure to bring some with me when I come home.
Much love,
Elder Alexander
