9 Baptisms!!!

Everyone!



Holy Cow this week has been crazy!!




Im hoping i will have enough time to load pictures. But pretty much we had our first baptism this week, and it truely has been a miracle. So our investagator lucero was baptized this week. Her mom has been holding permission for a while and we finally received it this week. Lucero´s aunt has been in the hospital for a while and so her mom has been there with her. And it was hard to get a hold of her. However, we were able to go to the hospital with Lucero and Lucero explained that we could give blessings. The aunt then asked for a blessing and we we gave her one. Suprisingly lucero´s mom gave us permission to baptize her. but not for a while because the aunt needed to heal... haha well the next day the aunt left the hospital because she was feeling much better. So, we baptized Lucero this weekend, Her mom came and watched and also came to church for the confirmation!!




I am just really excited about all of this. but really none of it is us. The lord has been answering our prayers and we have been truely blessed this week.




Thanks to everyone who sent letters I think sometimes they get lost for a bit in the Dear Elders cause I get some that sound old, but it is still always a treat.




So this week I had my first taste of Guinee Pig! haha. Its probably the best meat (besides steak) that i have had here. its a little chewy due to fat, but it is tender and flavorfull... we got some from one of our investigators. haha the investigators are always always giving us food. Im going to come home fat. seriously.




we also had lunch at a members house this last weekend and they served us a meal with some meat that was a tad bit hard to chew. I feel bad cause I couldnt for the life of me finish that meat. Haha the members understood and they thought it was kind of funny. they tried to explain what kind of meat it was. im still not sure exactly but I think it was some sort of stomach of a duck or chicken... anyway they thought it was funny.




This week also. I got shocked! by the shower. I forgot I had the power on and grabed the shower head to adjust it and i got shocked haha... ouch.




we have  an investigator im really excited about. her name is sheyli. she met the missionaries 6 years ago, and she immediately let us in to teach. She accepted everything we taught and accepted the challenges we extended. she is 22, married, and is 1 month away from having her first son. she is golden! The craziest thing is she is the first and only door we knocked on that day because there was so much else going on.




haha im so sore cause we had to clean out the font for lucero´s baptism with buckets. took 2 hours... it seems like getting ready fro that baptism has taken a lot of our time, but it also has been the most rewarding. hopefully the mom might start taking the lessons now...




The language is rough, i still cant speak well, and sometimes the members and the youth get frustraded with me which is hard, but I am working hard and I love our ward. They really are loving kind people, and I really wish i could talk more with them.




anyway thank you for your prayers. I love you all.




The church is true, tell your friends.

Always turn outward, and keep smiling,

 because heavenly fathers plan for us is a plan of Happiness! :D
