This last week was probably the most successful of my
mission so far. We worked out butts off. I gave my first blessing in Spanish.
Elder Silva were on fire with contacting, got a lot of references, taught some
incredible lessons, and Im having my first baptism this Saturday!!
Elder Silva were waiting for the bus the other day when this
guy started yelling at us in what Im guessing was Quechua. Then he ran over and
hit me! Elder Silva and I crossed the street cuz he starting throwing rocks at
us. I dont know if he was drunk, crazy or what. Elder silva thinks
he had a devil haha.
Love and miss you all!
Con amor,

Well unfortunately no pictures this week, the computer that
I'm usnig is super sketch.
Found an avacado the size of my head, sorry you'll have to
wait for a pic.
Tried gigote de carne, super rico. Its kinda not really like
pulled porked with bananas hahaha
Pretty sure Bolivia has the most variety of fruit in the
entire world. Since I've been here I've tried 2 types of mangoes, 3 types of
bananas, . They also have like 100 types of potatoes, no joke. Favorite so far
is yuca.
They use every part of cow and chickens down here. Like
every part, stomach, tongue, feet you name it. Look up churiqui de pollo. Yup,
I've eaten that.
We had the opportunity to hear from Elder Quinton L. Cook,
an Apostle. I got to shake his hand!! Everything that he said was incredible,
but something that stood out to me was that yeah we were missionaries of the
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, but more accurately and
importantly, we were witnesses of Jesus Christ.
Love and miss everyone. As always you're in my prayers.
Con amor,
Elder McClune
