Dear family,
I’m really excited for James, it’s
been bugging me the past couple of days. I’ve met a few people on my
mission that served French in Canada
So it’s been a pretty average week.
oh so mom "I hope you are happy to be on a mission still"... what’s
that about? Are my emails lacking? I thought you guys were kinda hearing
enough about the people. But anyway, it’s been a pretty fun
week. Monday night we had a nice lesson and visit with T and
L, they wanna read the book of Mormon in 90 days with the ward so that's
exciting.
We met with B again the other
day. He showed us his portfolio... it’s ridiculous, how good he is.
I learned a lot about film making though. I had no idea how much stuff in
movies is totally fake. He had over 250 model making trophies and that
was all on the side apart from his career. It’s cool. He showed us
pictures from things in a whole lot of movies... like a dumpster in Die Hard
that I would never guess is fake, but had his address on it, or Japanese
graffiti in Godzilla that has says his name, or the
fact that there are tiny R2D2s snuck onto every plane that crashes in Airforce
I. So that was super cool. Anyway, he’s reading the Bible now, and
came to church Sunday.
We do a lot of walking around and
have met quite a few good people with street contacts, one guy H,
stopped us to ask for a prayer and we’re meeting with him tonight.
Transfers are today and were staying together. We had basketball Saturday
night. I caught 2 two hand oops in games, and as of Monday I can two
hand 360 with consistency, hadn't tried it before Monday. Friday morning
we went over to some other missionaries who live with a really rich member with
a gym separate from their home and worked out, it was fun and I want to start
doing that regularly.
Saturday we did service most of the
day. While we were waiting for some other missionaries we went to a yard
sale and we hung out there for almost 30 minutes waiting. I played catch
with their 6 year old son about the whole time and talked to the mom
and grandma, and Elder B bought a pair of his old toddler size Jordans
If you’re curious, I’m still eating
more healthy. For almost 3 months now my basically daily breakfast has
been a can of salmon with half an avocado and grapenuts in it. I
just invented a new lunch I really like... a tortilla with a chopped up grilled
chicken breast, the other half of my morning avocado, cheese, and
sriracha. We’ve been hittin’ up the 99cent store quite a bit, they seem
pretty unbeatable on a lot of things. We’re also pretty good friends with
E who I mentioned earlier, and he works there, so we swing by to grab
lunch lot and see him. Well anyway, let me know if you guys have any
questions, I guess I’ll wait to hear from James in a letter!
Take care,
Love, Elder Pyron
