Hey!
This week went by so fast but was really good. Super busy but a super awesome week. First of all, as I write this, I am currently getting a haircut from a Mexican member who doesn't speak any English. It's pretty awesome. Elder Plaster is looking really good. We saw our roommates last week get a haircut, so we asked their member friend to come hit us up. Turns out she only speaks Spanish, and my Spanish is way worse than I thought haha. Yeah, but it's fine though. We got to talk in Spanish a lot and I got to flex on Elder Plaster even if my Spanish sucks. I'm definitely super excited to get a haircut though. It's going to look baller.
Anyways what made this week so awesome? Well first of all a crazy thing happened, a grown man almost pooped his pants in front of us during a lesson. It was probably the funniest thing I've ever seen in my entire life. I won't say his name but basically, we were having a drop lesson with this guy because he wasn't progressing. We've been meeting with him for a while. So anyways, we told him we needed to get going and he said that's fine because I need to go to the bathroom. He was an older gentleman. Then as Elder Plaster and I were leaving he started crouching over and crippled downwards. He was screaming violently. Like really really loud. I thought I was going to have to call an ambulance and our friend was going to have to go to the hospital. Then he started clenching his butt and ran down the hallways screaming violently and yelled, "I HAVE TO GO!" Elder Plaster and I ran to the door to leave but it was deadbolt locked so we needed his keys to leave. As we went to go get the keys by his couch to leave his house, we hear him in the bathroom yelling and some incredible noises were coming out of that room. Elder Plaster was struggling to open the door and I'm like BRO HURRY COME ON! He got it open and then we yelled have a great day and closed the door behind us. We ran to our car and got inside then we started balling with laughter for like 5 minutes straight. Elder Plaster kept saying, "Bro what the crap just happened." And I still can't believe that happened, but it was hilarious. Yeah, the poor guy!
We also had zone conference this week, that was fun. Eventually you get to a point on your mission where everything you learn is stuff you already know, and it gets real boring. Elder Plaster liked it though which was good. It was M&M themed, so we all got candy which was cool. Then we took pictures and had French dip sandwiches. It was delicious. Especially since I didn't eat breakfast that day.
Then I had exchanges with the zone leaders which was fun. I went to the Palmyra ward and got to do a lot of member work. We also found two new people who are super elect which was awesome. We got to spend time with a family, the McGinn's, whose son served in my home ward back in Iowa which was also awesome. That was probably the highlight of the exchange. We ate ice cream together, it was cool. Then I went on another back-to-back exchange with Elder Hughes. That one was fun too, but I definitely missed Elder Plaster. It's always so nice to be back with my companion.

Sunday no one came to church that we were teaching which is lame but it's alright. We'll just roast them later. We then had a bomb lesson with Edgar. Love that guy. The member in the lesson did some cool magic tricks for the kids which was awesome. Life has been good.

Well Elder Plaster's haircut just finished and now I'm finished with my Mexican haircut. Wow it looks so good. It was pretty cheap too. I'm going to get going because I have other stuff to do but I love you all.
Sincerely,
Elder Pack
