I
love how hard my companion works. She is
the very best ever and I am so happy that you sent me here with her! She is the
best! Well this week was great! The lessons weren't as many as last week but
they were good and we are still meeting the mission goals.
Well
let´s start with the best part of the week.....SUNDAY! We had 2 baptisms.
G and her sister J. It all went really
well. J wasn't planning on getting baptized. She was just scared and
nervous but after the interview of G we went to drop her off at her house
and Elder Pineda asked when her baptism was going to be and she was like I don’t
know probably tomorrow so he was like great let’s do the interview right now! So
they did and she got baptized! It was really great.
B was having problems with her mom so she didn't want to get baptized but Elder
Pineda talked to her too and she wants to get baptized she just doesn't want to
have problems with her family but we are planning her baptism for this weekend
along with the daughter of a recent convert.
The
M family (L & M) are doing well as far as the gospel goes.
Last week he got in a car accident so they didn't go to church...this week M’s
blood sugar went up and they spent all night in the health center. But we went
and visited them and L hadn't drunk at all that week! He said normally he
drinks...a ton but this last week he didn't drink at all even when his friends
bought him a beer after fishing one day. That was awesome to hear. They’re
going to get baptized they just have to attend.
Also
we went with the C family last night. The dad (who is less active) prayed!
He NEVER prays but last night in the lesson he prayed!!!! They are progressing
and we want to baptize his wife and sons (his daughter is a recent
convert).
Also I cut my hair yesterday because the
bottom was all crappy so it’s about to my shoulders now...a little shorter than
it was when I left for the mission.
Other
cool stuff that´s happening. We’re getting a new missionary in our area who is
apparently the daughter of an area 70 from down here and has a call to the
states but is waiting for her visa so that will be fun.
Best thing that’s
happening...ELDER CHRISTOFFERSON IS COMING THIS WEEK TO TALK TO THE GUATEMALA
NORTH, SOUTH, AND CENTRAL MISSIONS!!! WOOHOO!!!!!!
I wrote her: "It was -7 when I
went to work out this morning at 6:45. It was -9 on my way to work!!!
Says its 86 in La Gomera
right now, but the "real feel" is 98!!!
Recent Baptism |
Want to trade places?"
She responded: there is no way it is only 98....haha yeah I would trade
climate in a heartbeat.
Well I don´t know how much time I have
left but I just wanted to tell you that I love you so much and I´m so happy you’re
my family. I'm working harder than I have ever worked in my mission so I hope
you guys are receiving lots of blessings haha and being obedient too!!! haha I just love you all so much! Dad tell
Jamie (John and Vickie’s son) that I eat pupusas EVERY SINGLE WEEK! haha LOVE
YOU ALL SOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH...like MUCHISIMO :)
