Well hello there

So I feel like I don’t have a ton to write since I talked to you guys on Sunday. But here goes the week. On Wednesday we had a reunion of the new ppl and we went down to Xela. Well my companion doesn’t have anything to wear for the rain so we went and got her some rain boats and more sweaters and a rain jacket which was so good because holy cow there was a TON OF RAIN. The rain was up to our ankles and the streets were rivers. And because it’s mountainee here everything goes downward. Speaking of rain it’s raining a lot here as we speak. But that’s how it will be from May until October. I’m so excited - not.... 

Also side note about the meeting of the new ppl, we ate bagels and cream cheese. I forgot bagels existed and it was delish. 

The other day we decided to go visit an old investigator. We took the bus, but for some weird reason (well - clearly it was an impression of the spirit) I decided to get off the bus early and we ran into a member who showed us a ton of new investigators. It rocked. As well she is going to go visit with us so we can get to know the area better and get to know where the members live which I’m so grateful for. 

We went to see Emily who had a baptism date. But both dates fell through so we went to see what’s going on. She doesn’t want anything to do with us anymore. She has been lying to us a lot. And the thing is she was trying to deny her dream she had where somebody who looked like a temple worker. And that the Hermana’s didn’t come into her life by accident. That she needs to get baptized but she needs to learn a little bit more. Well she totally tried to deny that dream, which I totally got mad at her for that. And she told us a bunch of lies that the Virgin Mary healed her and all that jazz. I was so frustrated and felt so deceived by her. But this week we had a lesson with Nancy who is an old investigator and she wants to get baptized but her mom is every catholic and doesn’t want her too. But hopefully she will get baptized this month…the spirit was sooooooooo strong and so amazing and she knows so much.. 

We also went to go see Yeni who can’t get baptized because she isn’t married. But she really really wants to. So we are praying for a miracle. Her husband won’t be able to come to Toto for like 5 to 7 months from now and we got permission to baptize her if it’s for sure her husband isn’t coming back for that long and then when he comes home she needs to get married. But that just scares me a little bit because what happens if she doesn’t get married. But I’m praying praying for a miracle. 

Also we are working with Chris. All of his family got baptized but him. And he is dying for his answer. And as soon as he gets his answer he will get baptized. But he has been waiting for years. I just don’t know what to do. But I’ve been thinking we need to get him out of his house and have a super spiritual lesson with another member. That is what happened with Noe. So hopefully that will work. It’s weird how things are: Emily received a dream saying the church is true and she doesn’t want to accept it when another has been waiting forever to get his answer and all he wants is his answer so he can accept the church in his life. 

But that’s about all I can think of. It was so great talking to you guys. Miss and love you. As always thanks so much for all the support. Have a wonderful week
