Sounds like your week last
week wasn't too crazy, but that's always good!
Sounds like this next week is going to be good for all of you! There's going to be some big news next
week!!! That's exciting. That is really
cool though how Vivant put an internet tower on our house....free internet is
pretty neat! And about soccer, that
would be cool if you could sign me up for a club team (but I'm pretty sure
there's a team). I've grown a real love
for it being out here on my mission in Mexico.
Also, it's fine with astronomy. I'll take it. I took it in high school, so it can't be that
much harder! It'll be good! But I'm excited and happy that everything is
going good for you guys!!!
So this last week was really
good for us. I feel like it was a harder
week, but in the end we had a lot of success.
During the week we made a plan for all of our investigators that can be
baptized in the month of May, and we realized that we have a lot. So we've been working a lot on all of those
investigators.
This week was kind of weird
because it was a cold week. Like half of the days of the week we had to wear
sweaters and jackets because it also rained a lot. One day it rained the whole
day pretty much without stopping, and since the majority of the streets in La
Junta are dirt, we got pretty muddy that day.
We did see the fruits of our
work yesterday though, as we brought 6 to church. We brought one of our investigators that was
drunk, and he couldn't make it the whole meeting because he was so drunk. Funny
drunk people in Mexico. Also, we invited
one of the youth of the ward to bring her friend, and she did it. Her friend
was really interested, and she even accepted a baptismal date for about half
way through May. She's super excited and
likes church a lot.
This next weekend though
should be awesome, because we are planning on having the baptism of the mom of
Rafael and Aelin. Her name is Estela. Also, Estela's mom is here, like the
grandma of the kids, and we might get her baptized this weekend too, so we are
going to give it our all to get them ready. Next weekend we are also going to
marry Estela to her husband, because they're still not married, so that will be
fun too.
So random little cool thing
that we learned. So we were walking around and there's this one park that's
like in the middle of our whole area, and all of the youth from all of La Junta
go there to play, so we go there a few times every week and find all of our
youth investigators. So one time we went
and they were playing marbles.
Marbles??? That's like an old people's game right?? So they started showing us how to play, and
marbles is SO FUN. Me and Elder Hansen
after that went to buy ourselves some marbles.
Kids here play with old things.
Sometimes Elder Hansen and I feel like we are in the 80's here. Crazy
stuff.
Also just now while Elder
Hansen and I were writing, an old weird man came in the ciber super mad, and
pointed a stick at me and started chanting something and then ran away super
fast. There is no such thing as a normal
day in La Junta, but I love it. It's
such an adventure.
But thanks for
everything! I love hearing how everyone
is doing. I wish everyone luck this week with everything that you're all
doing. Thanks for your love and support.
Love you all and have a great week!
Can't wait to see you all in 2 weeks on skype :)
