Hello everybody,
Well I will be sending you a letter, computer time is limited. The city center is very pretty. Its kind of like renaissance Italy style. Today we are going to an Egyptain temple museum here. Next week it’s either the prado or the stadium.
Well Easter dinner here was not as good as home. We did not have ham. They gave the cooks the night off so we just had sandwiches. Thats exciting you finally picked out on a coach. When will it get there_ where is the old one going? Has life there been good I dont even know how to push the question mark sign on the computer. Maybe one day I shall figure it out.
Contacting people in the center is good. I can kind of talk with them. They just speak super quick and have a larger vocabulary. I like all my teachers. One has a super thick accent from Spain, another is from Spain and the third is from Ecuador or somewhere around there. Has JJ come over at all. How is he doing. Have you gone out to lunch with many other people. Well i shall write more in the letter. Time is dwindling.
I go kind of crazy here in the mtc. We stay inside the building all day long and mainly are in the same classroom all day long. Exersize time is exciting. We play soccer most of the time. I score semi often.
Well at the park the other day we were talking to a old Spanish guy. At first he was like "No I am Catholic but then we testified of the Book of Mormon and he took one and said he would read it. We also talked to some Germans for a bit. They seemed more curious than anything, but we gave them a pamphlet. They live in like Alfombra or something. It’s in the blue triangle.
We were supposed to meet at 4 to leave. At like 3:45 we found two ladies. At first we were talking in Spainish but then found out they spoke English. We have them read 3 Nephi 11, and the Spirit was so strong. They were almost crying. So they both took a Book of Mormon. We were talking to them for like 25 minutes. So when we went to the fountain everyone was gone. While walking back to the metro station some drunk guys said “Hey elders, come here.” They tried giving us candy but we did not partake. Then a guy from Africa said “Dont talk to them. They are way to drunk to understand.” He was only semi drunk. He seemed very interested in the church. We got his number. We will see how it goes.
Then at the stop we were talking to some people. We gave them a Book of Mormon and we ended up missing our stop. So while waiting at the next one we talked to some more people and gave them a Book of Mormon and ended us missing our stop again. So then we were like okay, no more talking we need to get back. So we hurried back and were like an hour late, but it was alright. So in the time that we were scheduled to be there we gave out one Book of Mormon, but when we were there extra we gave out four. The Lord will bless you if you work with all your might.
The food here is not all to great, but the Nutella is good so it makes it all right. It has rained like every day here.
Yesterday we played soccer in the rain and it was supper rad. Last pday we went to Plaza del Sol. Then we walked to Plaza Mayor. Then we went through a cathedral. It was a cool one. It was right next to the royal palace. We didn’t go inside the palace but we saw it.
General Conference will be in English. Easter was nice. We had musical numbers, and everyone read scriptures about the atonement, and we watched video clips. We do not watch The District every day. We only watch short clips-never a full episode. So I will be send letters today. I haven’t had any stamps yet. So they should get there sometime next week.
Love
Elder Kinghorn
