Guess what! Brother Kunda was baptized. It was so great. Everything went really well. I gave the talk on baptism and quoted from his favorite hymn. He choked up a bit. The Spirit was so strong. It was really cool because it wasn't us. It was all the ward. They have been working with him for so long and he finally said he was ready.
Yesterday I realized that this was my last fast Sunday as a missionary. I decided that I better share my testimony. I cried. It was sad. I LOVE this ward. I am going to miss them so much. I don't want to leave them.
Dad will love this. Guess what I ate yesterday...GATOR. A member here killed it, skinned it, and grilled it. HAHA. It tasted like a cross between chicken and shrimp. It was actually pretty good. They took a picture that I'll try and get a hold of next week. He went out on Lake Okeechobee at night. They shine the spot light out and look for eyes. When they find one, they use a cross bow and shoot it. They reel it in and then when they got close they use a bang stick. I don't know how it works, but there is a bullet at the end of the stick and it kills it. He said it was a little one--only about 6 feet, but it tasted delicious. HAHA only in Florida.
I know this is kind of lame, but I feel like I have told you everything. Family, I love you and I am so grateful for all the support you give me. I know that I wouldn't be out here if it wasn't for you. Thank you for the great examples that you have given me. I LOVE YOU!!!
