Hey fam, it´s been another good week in Lemon Grove,
California. Just started the last week
of the transfer, these past 5 weeks have absolutely floooown by.
This past week we've been working with pretty much the
same people, it's been kind of hard to find new investigators but we keep going
anyway. Eduardo is doing well, still working on helping him to grow his faith
and set a new baptismal date, he looks great and has come so far!! He and the
guy who he rents from--Jose came to church on Sunday. They're funny guys, they
are the ones that started to call me Chicharito, which means little pea because
of the soccer player, but now they call me Chicharote, which means big pea. haha
they say my eyes look like his eyes... 
Saturday we had more Lengua for dinner :) A member
family-the Quinonez's made us tacos de Lengua. They prepared it a little different
than Eduardo but they were super good too. We are helping their little 8 year
old Angel get ready for his baptism in the next couple weeks.
Sunday was awesome. Raquel and Cynthia and their daughter
Melanie came to church with us! (Melanie is like the friendliest little 2.5 year
old ever). They had a really good experience. We had the privilege of teaching gospel principals super last minute because
our teacher wasn't feeling good--he told us as we were walking into the
class..we taught about obedience. It wasn't too bad. Later on we had a mission president's
fireside in Chula Vista so we went there for that, it was good to see a couple of
people from the old ward although there were a few people that weren't there
that I was hoping would be. I got to see my "mom and dad" from that
ward, the Quintero family, I'll try to send ya a picture. Hermano Espinoza was
also there who is one of my favorite people I've met in the mission.
Yesterday we had dinner with the other Quinonez
family-they're brothers. She asked what we wanted and Elder Cloes said
Aguachiles, which is his new favorite thing. It's shrimp which is cooked, but
not really cooked. It sits in lime so the acidity cooks it, it's really good.
We also had shrimp ceviche which is similar, just that the Aguachiles is made
with chiles. so It's spicy. We love Mexican seafood!
Can't wait to see my little nephew! Send me pics and info
asap!!
Love you tons!
Elder Hansen
