I wasn't initially afraid of dogs out here. Even if they were aggressive I didn't worry about them...Till now. When you are on a bike they love to chase you, in groups of 5 or more. Elder Queroga got bit day 1 but he's tough. He just laughed. Me though? I might laugh later but not right away. Also, I have new found respect for all the missionaries who bike. Everyday. I would rather walk 10 miles than bike for a day. My legs are slowly getting used to it but I feel vulnerable to dogs. Locking the bikes so they don't get stolen can be a real pain. So, I really appreciate the missionaries doing the work without cars and only bikes!
This week was a bit tough mentally because I'm still not better yet and my body just feels so weak after I eat food. So we didn't go out teaching everyday but found 8 new people to teach and praying that I get better so I can teach them!
I am back on the tech team, and will be giving a training February 4th, I am really excited for that. Having been out in the field I have learned some things about use and misuse of the phones so I am now more prepared to train. I love training honestly, and it's going to be fun.
With all the time inside I got to read a lot of the Book of Mormon and I love it. Teancum, Lehi, and Captain Moroni were such great men. I also love thinking of how the Lord promised Enos that the record would be preserved no matter what happened, and thinking of how that same record was kept and maintained for that long is crazy. The Lamanites probably tried so hard just to destroy that record, and they never succeeded. I always feel sad transitioning from 3 Nephi to 4 Nephi, then into Mormon and just knowing that the people couldn't stop from turning to iniquity and forgetting the Lord. The book was written for us, I know it. And I love it, I hope you all find time to read it this week,
Elder George
