Buenas!
Another great week in Yucatan!
This Sunday Hna Price and I gave talks! It was Hna Prices first talk and she was a little nervous for the Spanish but she did great!!! I spoke about the importance of members in missionary work. I think I like giving talks.
Our little investigator Liliana is progressing so well! At church we asked her if she wanted to be baptized a week earlier than we planned and she was pretty excited. Her grandma will also be baptized soon too.
We have another investigator German who is getting married this week and will be baptized soon as well!
This week we were walking down the street and a lady selling ice cream started talking to us in English and turns out she was from the U.S. but moved down here because her husband, who is mexican, got deported. We had a lesson with her in English and we are going to get her a book of mormon in English as well. It is funny how we cross paths with people in other parts of the world.
Something I do love about Caucel is there are lots of people with little bicycle carts that ride around the streets in the afternoon and honk a little bike horn and sell bread and muffins. We get pretty hungry after walking around all day and we like to buy lots of bread.
Today I reunited with my mother(trainer) Hna. Martinez! There were special transfers and she is now in Merida!!! Every
monday 2 zones meet together for our district meeting and we do practices together, and Hna Martinez is in the other zone. We were pretty happy to see eachother. Some people we taught together were baptized after I left, and I was super happy to hear about all the progress going on down in Campeche!!!
Fun fact, did you know you can sing Oh my Father, and Joseph Smiths First Prayer to the tune of Come thou Fount of Every Blessing??
Its really pretty.
Other fun fact, one of our investigators who we are teaching is named Enrique. We didnt know his last names (they use 2 here, the dads last name and the moms last name, so I would be Stacie Heather Fleischer Mickelson) because we kept forgetting to ask but yesterday we asked him and his last names are Reyes Leon, which means Lion Kings!!!!!! hahaha we thought it was pretty cool.
I have never realized how powerful the message of the Restoration really is. There are a lot of people who are very confused about why there are so many churches and beliefs, we have the truth that is so valuable and I am so pumped to be sharing it with lots of people.
Hope you all have the most wonderful week!
If you see a missionary this week, give them a cookie or some juice or something!
Con mucho amor,Hermana Stacie Fleischer
