.........."The other night as we were eating with the other spanish Elders at a members house someone asked, "Hermana, what's in the salsa?" Because it was pretty hot. Then the Hermana brought out these little peppers. They were super tiny. Like, 3 centimeters or so, and bright red. Well, another Elder suggested that we all eat one. So we did. Of course. They were super super hot. We were all crying. My companion's face was probably as red as the peppers. We were hiccuping. It reminded me of my Farewell day, except we didn't have Ice Cream to numb the fire. It was pretty funny. The Hermana got a kick out of it." (***Note: there is a photo of the pepper challenge on this blog and a crazy video floating around on facebook, what is it with hot peppers??)
.......We are tracting a lot more and we are searching for new people. So,
that's always a good thing! We do this thing called the Harvesting Blessing.
It's where we basically introduce ourselves and representatives of Jesus Christ
and we ask them if we can come into their house and give their home and
family a blessing from Jesus Christ. We go in and we discuss what they might be
looking for in life, and then we explain that we are going to pray by the
authority and power of Jesus Christ, the Priesthood, and we explain it a
littlebit, how it was lost, and restored. Then we pray for them. It is really
neat! It's also a good way to get to know people and present our message. And
who can turn down a blessing from Jesus?....
I am growing so much out here, and I'm
super thankful for this opportunity! Thanks to you guys I can share this Gospel
with the whole world! Much Love!!
Love, Elder Higgins
