Elder Stuart Hunt: Being tall in a short city...

This week, oh boy... well, for starters we had exchanges and I went with the Spanish Elders in our district. I got super confused every time they said something because I didn't know what they were saying, other than that it was great. We visited some investigators who were confused that my name tag was in English. So, there I was watching the other 2 in my trio do the talking while I sat all confused because I didn’t know squat.

We have many people that we are teaching, but the problem with them is consistency. We teach 1 lesson and they leave us for 2 weeks and then show up saying goodbye forever. That is something that really bugs us, it's just disappointing. But God gave us agency, so we can't complain. My teaching skills are not always on point but I’m getting the jest of things. Every once in a while, a person will ask a question I didn’t even know existed like "Hey, from what tribe was Lehi?" That is something I never asked anyone before so obviously someone had to ask me to answer that question, I told them I didn’t know but I would be more than happy to find that out and answer it next time we meet, but of course there never is a next time so yeah.😢

As for transportation we have the bus and we just got bikes on Saturday!!!! It's a great bike for a tall guy like me. Oh, that reminds me about this city... this city was not built for tall people. My head hits the roof of the bus every time I walk in. It's so annoying and of course the people in the bus think it's so funny. They act like they’ve never seen a tall guy before so that's something. Also when I walk into a member’s house for dinner I have to duck in the doorways in every room, and again, of course its funny to them 🙄

This week the awesome members fed us chicken tacos on Friday and chicken curry on Sunday. 😉

Well, have an excellent week. Love you,
Elder Stuart Hunt
