banged heads and pancakes

Family and friends,

This week wasn´t more eventful than the rest, but we got our share of blessings and help as usual. There were some funny things though--Elder Saltzman and I are having quite a problem of hitting our heads on random things--doorways, the metro (subway), trees, signs. The other day I was walking and reading when out of no where I walked straight into this bar that was sticking out from the wall of a little store, I´m pretty sure there were some chunks of metal that fell down haha so embarrassing but funny. I wouldn´t be too surprised if we have gotten a concussion from hitting our heads so much haha.
Our investigator Jessica feels bad for us that we can´t listen to worldly music so she feels the responsibility to download the artists we like and play them for us as we sit and chat before we start the lessons haha. Of course she just had to download Adele and a song from Imagine Dragons, which brought back memories from home haha.

There is an inactive man we visit, I think I've mentioned him before--the Spanish guy who is a bit different--and when we sat down he had us pull out our hymn books and start singing. I´m pretty sure we ended up singing 10 hymns for him ha.

We had pancakes on Sunday morning! My comp's mom sent him syrup so we treated ourselves to a good breakfast, tasted so good.
Another funny story from today came from the barber shop as I was getting a hair cut. The TV was going and it was a program of some Spanish guy in his 20s or 30s who is trying to do what Man vs. Wild does. But the part that was funny, Kayla and Leah you are going to appreciate this, is that he was wearing bright orange Crocs! hahaha.

Ok back to the more serious stuff. Jari is doing really well, although we´ve moved his baptismal date a couple weeks back so that we can have more time to help him prepare. He doesn´t seem quite ready to make that covanent and be a strong active member yet. But he is reading and praying which is helping him a lot.

The work continues forward, I love being a part of this powerful army. Thank you for all that you do. 

Love Elder Franson
