"Satan is a Butthole." -Elder Wadley

Elder Wadley's email this week just may be my favorite one yet!
I am not even going to preface it with any of my own thoughts.
You're welcome.
Okay, maybe one.
I am truly amazed by how much my boy has matured and grown spiritually in the past (almost seven) months. He truly loves the people he is serving. He thinks of them more than himself. He trusts in his Heavenly Father, and he can see His hand in the work he is assisting Him in.
It makes my heart happy.
Elder Wadley's e-mail:
Well no worries about having a boring week because nothing really interesting happened this week either just another normal week!
The weeks go so fast here i swear i blink and it is Sunday already and i haven't taken any pictures or anything. This week has been really normal we have just been teaching,walking, and sweating. We have been having some really good lessons lately and trying to get people to baptism. The hard thing is that it is so freaking hot here nobody wants to walk to church. It makes it hard but its fun work at the same time!
Oh so this last Pday we went to McDonalds because Coke is doing a 2x1 promotion so we basically got a bunch of free crap. It was so great! I really don't have a whole lot to say this week,sorry.
One thing i do want to say though is that Satan works hard when you are making the right decisions. We have a couple we have been visiting forever because they needed to get married and all that good stuff before the husband could get baptized. Well their marriage is this week and his baptism as well and it has been really rough this last week. Satan knows that they are making choices that will eventually bring them back to their Heavenly Father and he is working double time to make sure this doesn't happen. Satan is a butthole. Always keep your focus on the things of the Lord no matter what happens!
Really thats all that happened this week, it has been super normal around here as well as back home i guess! Everything is going really good here though! We are good with all the members and the people we are working with- things are going good! Transfers are coming up on like the 20th and i am actually really sad because i think i am going to get transferred which sucks because i love the people here. Although it would be sweet to go somewhere a little less hot ;)
Now to answer your questions..
1.(Any hot girls writing you?) Nobody really :(
2.(Does Colombia celebrate Halloween? Dad said Ecuador did Dia de Los muertes? I know they do Christmas. What other holidays?)Yes they celebrate Halloween:) They have their valentines day going on right now which is a little weird.
3.(Any weird food this week?)Nothing super weird this week
4.(Any dead things?) I haven't seen any dead things for awhile...sorry
5.(Any miracles?)  Lately i have been able to see a lot of changes in people that we have been teaching. For example, we started teaching this one family and at first they wanted us to pass by maybe once a week and they were just kinda iffy (if that is a word). Now they want us to come over like every other day and they come to church and are not really shy or awkward with us. It has been cool to see really the change that this church can bring.
I think that is all for this week! I love you guys!! Have a less boring week!!
XOXOXXO
