Elder Wagner

My brother is serving a mission for our church right now in Mexico. He gets to send us emails every week and they have become a family joke. They are all like this "Hi family, Things are fine. We have a few baptisms this week. Got to go we are playing soccer today. Love, Ty" So imagine my surprise when I read this...

Hey family
So things here are going really well. We baptized yesterday and have 2 more for tomorrow. It's really hot here but not like Acapulco or Zihua. Here the heat is really dry and you don't sweat a lot. But the work has been pretty good. Oh yeah on Saturday morning at 2 am my companion and I were sleeping when he got up to check the fan, he thought it was burning, I was still asleep and he told me to get up that we had to go. I was like what's wrong because he usually freaks out about little things. So he tells me there's a lot of smoke. I get up look in the other room and there's a huge fire there. The connection with the fridge got messed up and fried and started a fire that got bigger and bigger with all the paper that we had over there. So we put towels over our heads and run down the 3 floors to the street and start yelling for people to call the firemen. Anyway about 50 people decided to come out of their houses to watch us instead of calling the firefighters, so we went upstairs and started throwing water on the fire, and by the time the fire got put out the firemen came. But now we don't have light and our walls are all charcoal black. So we have to paint and get everything fixed now. Fun times. ANyway that's about it
Love TY
