New companion

boy oh boy do i have some interesting things to tell you!

SOoo Let me first begin by kind of apologizing that i never told you but i havent really been able to hear out of my right ear for the past month and a half ish. So Elder Smith Sr being the doctor and all looked at it for me a couple weeks ago. He thought something was wrong with my ear drum, but managed to get me some ear drops that should help, now Me and Elder Leany were driving around St Georges most of Wednesday kind of waiting for our companions to arrive. So me still short of hearing asked elder Smith to look at it again. We got to his apartment after we picked up elder smith and Elder Padilla. And he looked at it again and pulled out some make shift tool made from a Wd 40 straw and a syringe . and flushed out my ear. (dont tell dad that works)( he might try to make one). I can hear now i am healed. So started off the week great! 
 
Then me and elder Padilla went out to work when we got back! and boy oh boy do i like working with Elder Padilla, He is a little bit quiet  in the lessons unless i tell him when he should speak, But he has absolutly no fear in contacting. He sees someone and just goes! Its awesome! he is a wonderful guy. He learned english in school before but is working on perfecting his grammer! so just now he will have it perfect! 
 
Now  we had a great week, met a members long distant cousin named "C". and taught her once, she is looking for a church.   so it should be great! she actually came this Sunday.
"KA"s bus isn't fixed but she is really progressing. she talked about how she wants to make a lot of changes and she is starting to really think about what her next step is. 
 
Ok now the story about church... Buckle up its a great one.
Ok so Sunday morning Me and Elder Padilla,Look around and see we have no bread, so thats no big usually, Bro odebenu brings it.
Now, This particular sabbath we had some weird torrential downpour going on, 
(another Tropical Wave) 
So brother james got there before it hit and he walked with our investigator "MH". And then Came the rain and after that only people with cars showed up again. But Brother Odebenu didnt show up till 15 mins after 10. so sacrament started late. And the sacrament table was all set up.   So we started promptly after his arrival. When sacrament rolled around it was me and elder padilla who were blessing the sacrament. When we lifted the cloth to our surprise there was no bread. So we quietly exited the building and ran downstairs and grabbed whatever we had that could potentially be used for sacrament. All we had was spicy Nacho Tortilla Chips....  So we had For Remembrance of the body of Christ Spicy Nacho Tortilla chips. Must say it was a stressful sunday but it all worked out. Weird experience also. 
 
but all is well.
Teaching is well!
Elder Padilla is going to be a fantastic missionary! he is a boss! 
Elder Aukusitino emailed me and said that he saw i begat another son haha so im happy to hear he is flourishing in his English skills! 
 
Thanks for everything you do for me! i love you so much! 
 
Love Elder pierson
