Yes, you heard it here! I'm now officially an Uruguayan and you are probably wondering how you do such a thing. Well it's actually quite simple... Just pee in a cup! That's at least what I did this week. We went to Montevideo the capital of Uruguay for a few days and had a pretty epic Mission Conference. We can't have zone conference because there are not enough missionaries yet. Don't worry you guys ((Who??)-inside joke) there was a translator named Elder Merrill to translate the meeting into English for those that struggle with Spanish(that's me). The person talking would talk in Spanish a sentence or two and Elder Merrill would say it in English. You could say we had a two for one. It was really good. We talked about the spirit and I felt the spirit! Funny how that works. We also talked about Christlike attributes which is always important.
We did a lot of walking this week! I'm pretty sure it the most walking I've done on the mission. We have been looking for the less active members that inhabitant the land of Rocha and I also figured out some interesting stuff about Rocha. There used to be a freaking Stake here and way more active members and there were two branches. Now there is one struggling branch here. Evidently the leaders of the church in Rocha messed up big time and did some big sins. That's at least what I picked up with my Spanish. I guess it's our job to clean up a bunch of stuff? Who knows.
It was also Thanksgiving this week so that's cool. I totally forgot about it though so I'm grateful that I remember now. Now that Thanksgiving is gone we can all look forward to the next best Holiday! New Year's!!!! The year Elder Clegg goes home. Join in next time when Elder Clegg remembers Christmas!
-Love Elder Clegg
P.S. It rained here these last few days more than it did my last over a year in Vegas.
