Dear Fam,
Hey i am glad to hear that everybody is doing well and the summer is going well for everybody.. its crazy that it is almost august!! this month went by fast and hopefullly these last three weeks of this change will go by fast too.. my comp that i though would be good isnt.. he is a retard and hopefully i will make it through the next three weeks without exploding on him again or one of us getting an emergency change.. the second day here he told me i need to care for the people more.. and i do obviously and try to listen attentively but i still dont understand everything.. i just let that roll off me though... then when i go to bed on time he comes in and turns on the light and i tell him to turn it off and he doesnt listen and just laughs.. i was like whatever with that too.. then he still thinks he knows his way better then i do around the area.. then he listens to apostate music.. not of the church and when another elder turns it off he got mad and told him that he lost the spirit when he turned it off.. then the other day when we were supposed to be studying he got the american flag we had downstairs and thought itd be funny to burn it.. so he did.. then i came down kept my cool and went back upstairs then came back down to leave to go work and he put the melted little part that remained back up.. i grabbed it through it outside and said lets go.. then we went to pray and he told me to say and i ALWAYS say it! thats when i blew up.. i went off on him in spanish and told him i dont care if he has respect for the flag.. but you have NO respect for your calling.. this is your time is the lords... you are stupid.. your wasting the lords time and get some respect for things!! i dont know if i have ever been so mad in my life though.. i was shaking after.. we worked things out though but he really isnt changing and that was friday..i dont know if i will make it three more weeks with him.. somebody might get e changed out cause i am not putting up with his crap anymore.. i thought the mission was gonna be full of good misisonaries but its really now.. there are a bunch of retards out there that need to go home if they dont wanna be here to work.. they can do there crap in the homes and not waste my time or the time of others who are here to work and help others come onto Christ.. well please pray for me and my comp cause honestly i dont know if ill make it much longer with him before i beat the crap out of him some day.. well it was nice to get that out and if anybody has some advice on that subject i would love to hear it.. i fiinished reading our heritage but in spanish and it is a really good history of our church.. it makes me realize the challenges i sometimes have are really nothing compared to the pioneers and others.. their faith was amazing and they went through so many challenges but those who remained at the end were the best and those were the people really needed to start this church up so it could become what it is today.. i got a letter from gma hatch and will write her back next pday.. we had a pioneer day activity today with 5 zones.. it was cool to see all my buddies that came into the mission with me.. we heard some talks and the spirit was strong.. then we played some pioneer like games.. we have to people to be baptized on the 7th of august.. another thing my comp didnt want to go by and pick up our investagators like we always do for church... it is true they need to come on there own but we need to tell them first we arent gonna pass by so come or your own.. but he was dumb and was like we arent going and they didnt come.. what do ya know.. he is a retard.. anyway i have eaten some hot stuff recently with chili in it and i thought i was gonna die cause it was soo hot.. dad and sean happy birthday.. sorry i forgot to say it last week.. and paul too and jaden and i dont remember who else.. haha sorry i dont look at my paper much that has everyones bday. and for that happy bday to all those ive missed since i have been out here..my camera is still in the shop and hopefully i get it back soon.. well its been cool to see while i have been out here how appostate the other churches are.. like the catholics and the evangelicals.. they dont have there church in line with any of the things in the bible which they supposedly read.. also the fact that satan tries soooo hard to stop our church from growing is another example to me that our church is the true church.. he is attacking to family so hard right now and that is why we need to fortalize or strengthen our families now more then ever.. they are the most important group here on the earth.. well i am so greatful to be able to share the gospel with others and hope we have to live for forever with our families! Well i gotta to go and please pray for me and my comp and the work in all the world!! i love yall and lots and love getting your emails and pics!! Stay strong and dont forget the things we convenanted with God when we were baptized to be reps of Christ and to help others and keeps his commds.. and we will be blessed.. I love yall and ill tty next tuesday!!
Love,
Elder Hatch
