Well this week was suuuper fast! Lots of fun stuff!
-Lupita
She was a reference from the Elders because they couldn't visit her much because her husband isn't there often (mission rules). She is so great! Has such a strong testimony of our Heavenly Father! And her husband is Athiest. As we were getting ready to leave, she asked, So what is my reading assignment! :) She has had some lessons with the missionaries in the capital!
We have a baptism this week with Vilma! We are having a blast teaching her grand children also!
We met a lady named Lesbia in Campos Nuevos (an area that we have to take a tuk tuk for about 10 min and it is in one of the banana fields) and she was great! SO receptive and is MARRIED!! Her kids are kind of crazy, but she enjoys meeting with us! :)
Also in Campos Nuevos we met a lady named Marline! She is a member of a church called Amigos. They basically believe in faith. That is it. They dont think people need to be baptized. But she is really great! She loves the idea of the Book of Mormon. We are really focusing on that with her!
Lets see.. We ate fried rice last week, and had some chow mein this week! It isn´t anything like normal, but it works!
It is getting surprisingly cold at night!! Now that we have fans we don´t really even use them! But during the day it gets nice and toasty! :)
Ponderizing: Mosiah 4:27 How true is that! Everything needs to be done in wisdom and order, but we need to make sure we aren't running faster than we can! Sometimes as missionaries we have to remember this. And in normal life! Don´t get so flustered with being the best, or worried about fitting in, remember to take it one step at a time, and you can always find peace and comfort in the Gospel and the Scriptures!
Lovin' this country!
Love you all!
