I really wanna say something really cool or funny or just
plain awesome to start off my letter home, but nothing’s coming to mind ... all
I can think is that I’m Skyping home in 5 days!!!! Wooooo and hearing about my
Big Boy Matt’s Mission call has got me super wowzers excited! Oh man. [Matt Hanks was called to serve a mission in Singapore, leaving in July.]
Well, we had us a baptism this past weekend! Hermana Silvia was baptized in just about the
coldest water I’ve ever felt! We got in
and, oh man . . . it was cold! And as I pulled her
up out of the water she was like "AHHH, FRIO, FRIO, FRIO" really loud
and it was hilarious! Afterword she was
talking about it and, oh man, she makes me laugh. She reminds me a little of you, Mom ... she’s just so funny and she has many mannerisms like you. It’s
great. I love visiting her! Then on Sunday, she showed up way, way, way
late to Sacrament Meeting and I was so worried she wasn’t going to show! I’d
have to baptize her again, later on in that cold, cold water!
Fernanda (Silvia’s daughter and Rebecca’s sister) is up next
for us to baptize! She’s up in 2 or 3
weeks and we are so excited to have baptized almost a whole family! They’ve all changed so much in good ways and
we love teaching them. They help us
with the language and we help them with the gospel!
Also, Pedro and Sacnite just found new work and we are SOOOO
EXCITED!!! They can finally go to
church now and progress a little more and be baptized in just a bit!
We have MANY new investigators and we are teaching a whole
family!!!! (the best) They own a taco
shop! WOOO, FREE TACOS! hahah
They gave us free tacos last Saturday night .... like ... Fast Sunday
night ... that was the hardest thing to accept as we were fasting. But all is well, we gave it to Pedro and
Sacnite as a gift and they really liked it, I think!
All is well. We are
plugging along and learning a lot!
Healthy ... happy ... and teaching like crazy!
