Is it Valentines day? I don't know. Ik ben op zending!Well this might be short again because the guy that works at the Internet cafe cheated me again so I'll see what I can do.A missionary of ours just got called as a branch president because one of the presidents in Suriname got disfellowshipped. Glad I'm not in that area. For p-day we sometimes play soccer at a field by our apartment(which is actually pretty nice.) or we just laze about doing a little study and sleeping.Surinamers are funny people. They are really angry drivers. When we went to district meeting in the zone leaders van some guy started banging on our window in the car next to us and yelled something but I don't speak dutch so I didn't understand why!My area kinda reminds me of downtown Ogden if it was a little dirtier so its not to bad here. I don't think we have anyone lined up for de doop(baptism) anytime soon so that's too bad. There's this one guy named Ralph that we teach but he seems a little off sometimes. He's a security guard who just sits in a chair outside a building and that's when we teach him, at work. Every time we ask him to pray he asks if he should use the lord's prayer and every time we tell him that we have to prayer from our heart. He's just really funny. We're not sure if he gets what we teach yet but it will come eventually.I thought Suriname would be junglyer but its really just a busy little city. At least here in Munder it is. Maybe outside Paramaribo its less city like.I'm still just bearing my testimony once per lesson when we teach but I'm getting better I think. I gave a talk in church yesterday! It was pretty easy because i just read a lot of scriptures so i didn't have to use too much language. I got called a devil yesterday! I feel like a real missionary:)OK I gotta do my e mail for that president now. I hope I answered a few more questions this time.Love you!Love,Hayden
