Hey fam and friends!
Hope
everyone is doing flippin great! Because things are great here too!
I’ve
had a little bit of a cold going these past couple of days but it’s all good!
Well
this week went really well! We had a zone conference and President came all the
way out here to check things out. What’s cool is that he was really really
happy with how the conference turned out – he said it was very spiritual and
very energetic! After we all went out to eat – President’s treat ;)
The
next day we had our early morning meeting with the Stake President (and owner
of a really good Tico soccer team), the Stake Presidency, and President
Laboriel. Those meetings are always sooooo cool because it feels like a giant
CEO meeting (business owner, general authority, public government leader, and
Elder Stott…. Hahaha I’m the odd-ball there)
Fun fact: I heard the song “Winds of Change” by the Scorpions but they sang it in Spanish – not mission related at all but it’s a cool song! This week I figured out that one of my favorite drinks here “Pitahya” is actually
dragon fruit. It’s a cool looking thingy and tastes super good! The drink that
I don’t like is passion fruit – that stuffs freaking nasty… Another fruit
that’s super good is the sugar apple, its super soft a yummy – good stuff!

Well
this week we ran all over the place visiting and meeting new people. It’s weird
here because it pours and then the stops randomly so the weather here’s like a
box of chocolates… Our investigators are all doing pretty good! We met a
super sweet family that were totally going to go to church but the dad had to
go to work. They’re super sick so hoping that I’ll have some good stuff to
share this week about them – cross yo fingas! Haha
Well
I’m doing good too! Lots and lost of work to do with not very much time!
Well
good news everyone! After talking with President a lot lately, he asked if I’d
extend my release date from December 28 to February 9, so long story
short, I’ll be out for a little more than 2 years! It was kinda tough to think about because I already had lots
of plans for when I was going to come home in December, but I’ve realized that
a lot of times, my plans aren’t the Lord’s plans. I've learned that lesson a lot of
times here on my mission. I know that everything always turns out just fine.
Well,
I love all you guys so much! Thank you for the love and support!
Pura
vida!
- Elder Stott!
