us and Samuel, who just got baptized. He is already set on going on a mission and came with us to visit some people! |
Well, this week was a great one!
Last week I got my hair cut... about 4 months ago my companion cut it, and it turned out, well, horrible. And so we went to a salon that a member has and she cut it so it looked nice and normal!!! Hooray!
On Tuesday we had to go the immigration offices in Merida for my companion (all the foreign missionaries go to get their visas worked out at the beginning of their mission) and we kind of got lost on the bus routes but we made it safely and on time! We talk buses pretty often and for some reason I love taking the bus. When we left the immigration office I had to use the bathroom and the only one near was in some random Christian church so I snuck in their and used it and hoped nobody saw me haha.
Although I miss the mountains, the skies in Merida have my heart |
The members in our ward our so wonderful!!!!! They always give us lots offood or fruit or random things and I just love them tons and also want you to know that I am being taken care of very well down here :) They are very loving and there are a lot of families in Barrio Caucel that I love tons! I will be sad to leave them.
On Friday we had a talent night that we had organized for our ward! Actually a ton of people came! Members and non members. We sang Be Still my Soul in English (it actually doesn't exist in the Spanish Hymn Book) and other people danced and did skits and it was pretty fun.
Since Thanksgiving doesn't exist in Mexico, a lot of people already have their Christmas decorations up. Hooray!
Today we got together with Hna Martinez (mi mama!!!!) and her compie |
We found 2 families this week that are super awesome and they came to church! Hooray! We had lots of people that came to church this week and a lot of less actives too. A lot of people just need a little bit of love in their life to change! We have an investigator names Dieter! He is a young man that is way awesome and he told us an experience where he was going to read the chapter we left him and he didn't understand it at all. SO then he said a prayer and afterwards he understood everything he read and applied it to himself! I know that the spirit will guide us always always! Heavenly Father wants to guide us to the truth, and sometimes he just requires a little bit of faith from us.
I know the gospel is true!!!! And it is not weight, but wings! Being a missionary is the best thing to do and the best place to be with the best people in the world!!!!
Love you tons and hope you are doing well!
