Week 4

Hey y'all how ya doing thanks for sending all the pictures I am actually serving in the hagertown part of Maryland and it is like the ghetto really weird stuff i see there. When i got hooked up
with my companions elder woods and elder dear-den, because i got put in a trio which is pretty cool thy are cool guys they have been here about 23 months. One of the members picked us 

up from the mission home and she is funny she took us to golden corral and when were there the manager walked over and gave us all 3 meal passes each so not all people here in hagertown 
want to hurt you.the member took us to are room we were staying in in hagerstown and its not to bad they got nice beds good sized bathroom got my own closet and inside are room they have a full weight room so that is where i exercise

 after she had dropped us off, a family had dinner they had fixed for us three missionaries, we have are own car so us Elders  drove over there. Then we walked into this house we saw that they let there dogs and cats just poop everywhere there is like bugs 
of all sorts running around there, so us trio walk through the building and like dancing ballerinas trying to avoid bugs and poop of all sorts, then we sit down at the table and they bring us really nice glasses filled with some cheap brand of expired mountain dew. Then they gave us plates of spaghetti, there definition of spaghetti was putting noodles in a crock pot and chopping up tomatoes i don't know how old and just throwing them on the noodles like no sauce or anything. 
So i look at elder woods and he says we have to eat all of it so we all gag and dry heave and then just started eating we finally made it through the whole plate and then, and this is the worst part 
she puts are plates on the ground lets all the dogs lick our plates and then looks at us and and says and i quote "that's how we clean our plates in this house, good thing we have dogs". So me 
and the other elders are trying to keep cool . then they want us to do a service project and move couches and tables for them, i wont get into to that whole story but lets
just say i have nightmares every night since that. we got out of there house and all three of us ran out of hand sanitize in about 30 seconds. had the longest shower ever and i think i drank 
a little mouthwash and hand sanitize just to make sure and i was looking through the first aid box for an 8-way shot and some ivermectin along with the rabies vaccine and some penicillin
but they have a shortage of that in hagertown. 
The next day I woke up, all three of us still disgusted above measure, we went proselyting and all the time on the street contact all the people say is "at this point no one can help us" and at 
some point there was some people i believed. As sad as that is i was getting lit cigarettes thrown at me marijuana smoke blown in my face and everything on from there  but i did get to teach a short 
restoration message with some people sitting in launch chairs dancing with a whiskey bottle jamming to gold digger I'm guessing that's what is called because it was repeated every other word almost so 
but the members in hagerstown are pretty cool and they give you food you don't have to worry about not waking the next morning and the bishop here is really cool all the people here like 
listening what goes on in Idaho us cowboys and rednecks. but i have actually got to teach some investigators and one says he is 80 percent sure that he is going to get baptized some guy 
wants to talk to his late wife in the temple and we had to nicely tell him that you have to get baptized first and that's not quite how it works. Another guy has been being taught by missionaries for 3 years but wont get baptized 
 I am really having a lot of fun and me and companions joke and have fun a lot. Elder dear-den got strep throat so elder woods went Sunday to church
with another elder while i baby sit Elder dear-den but it saved me from talking in church and i got to read a lot of the book of Mormon.
