The Habanero Challenge!!!!!!!!!!

have any of you ever been in a time in your life when you think that nothing could possibly get any worse? that you have gone through so much pain and agony and suffering that the only thing left to do is hope that it miraculously goes away? that happened to me.....when i took the HABENORE CHALLENGE!!!! this was no small task....the habenero is a mexican pepper that is ridiculously hot (DO NOT EAT ONE!!!) they are gross and extremely painful...for about 4 hours i was sitting in my apartment in so much pain that the only thing in my mind was "i wanna kill myself" it hurt so bad, that i think i can honestly say that my appreciation of the atonement has grown dramatically. to give you an idea of how hot and painful it was here is a quote from a missionary after he took the challenge "i would rather have my arm cut off rather to have ever eaten that stupid pepper!" ~elder manuele

manuele just happens to be from st george so i give him mega props :D

not much else to crazy is going on right now...just the usual mission stuff :D i did go to coldstone for the first time and i just have to say that it was the greatest ice cream place i have ever eaten :D

hope to hear from you guys soon :D MISS YOU ALL!!
