Hola,
Mi Familia!!!!!!!
So,
with my personal card…. My mission card wasn`t
working for some reason, but it just started working today. Since it wasn’t
working I had to use my own money for
things. I am so sorry. For the hospital bill, I have no idea what that is for,
I never went to any hospital, that`s weird? My
Mission Card is working now, so hopefully there won’t be any more problems.
The volcano lake we went
to last week was amazing! I really wish
you could have been there with me to see it. I will for sure come back and take you and mom
to see that place!! It was so cool! And yes, even now you would get in trouble!
If you got caught doing anything "disrespectful" the people would
literally try to burn you, alive. They are crazy, but as long as you do
everything normal, you will be just fine!
The buses... oh the
micro buses are crazy! They are just family vans that have been upgraded to act
like a bus, and they literally pile on like 20 people. People are standing up holding on to metal bars
they put in there themselves. It`s nuts, but so cool! There is a volcano we can
see right out our front door. I will get a picture and send it. The experiences I have had haven`t been much
yet because of my short time here so far, but I will never trade them for
anything because they are so amazing to me already!!!
I am so happy to hear
that everyone is doing better! It’s such a relief to hear. Honestly, I have
been pretty worried while being out here just because in these 2 weeks, there
has been so much things that have happened to our family that has been so
crazy, from Cassie`s surgery, to dad breaking bones, to the kid’s surgery, to
Mikayla`s car crash, to Gunner’s car accident, and now sinus surgery for Gunner, Peity & Brody; it`s nuts! But honestly, I have
received such a huge testimony about my family being blessed while I am serving
the Lord full time. I just hope everything keeps going good back home? I am so
glad Mom, that your foot is starting to feel better, I hope it keeps going that way!
How is Dad`s nose? Is it healing alright?
Haha, what kind of hobby
are you going to pick up, Dad?? I really miss playing football with all of you!!! I
am so happy right now though, because for the first time being out here, I get
to go play a soccer game!!!!!! I can`t wait! I am so excited!!!! Halloween is HUGE here!!!!!! It isn`t the
same as the US Halloween, instead they celebrate Day of the Dead. But it is
huge!!! I will have some pictures coming, because it`s really cool!!!!! I wish
I could be there with all of you tonight at the Lund’s, I am for sure going to
miss it!
Well, I am sorry to hear
that you won`t be taking that job, but I am so glad that you recognized the
spirit and an answer to your prayers, and were able to follow it, even though it
might have been hard to do. I can`t tell you how many times while being here, maybe not too big
of things, but I have gotten a small prompting and as I follow them, I just
know that if I wouldn`t have there could have been such a different outcome
that I will never know what it may be, but I am glad I don`t have to know, as long as I follow the spirit. I can`t
believe how much I have grown spiritually in these 2 months. I love it!
I wish I could have
heard Harley’s farewell!!!! She is so strong in this Gospel, she is going to be
great in London. If you see her, tell her I say good luck and let her know that
this is hard work, but she will love it! She will be amazing! That quote is
amazing too! I love President Uchtdorf. He is such a powerful man! (Sometimes a single phrase of testimony can set events in motion that can affect someone's life for eternity. -Pres. Deiter F Uchtdorf)
1. PEAK MOMENT: That we have a for sure baptism this
Saturday!!!!! Brenda is so amazing!!! She is a true convert! We can see the
temple from where we teach her, and she said that she will go in there one day.
She is amazing and she has the cutest daughter in the world! Expect pictures
soon. I am so stoked!
2. PIT MOMENT: Paty put her baptism date off again. We are
hopìng that she decides to be baptized this week too, because she is so ready!
But, you can`t rush someone getting their answer. All I know is we are doing
everything we can. She just needs to act.
3. SOMETHING YOU HAVE
LEARNED THIS WEEK: One big thing I have
learned, because of Paty, is that even though we might not receive a huge
answer or a huge change in our life, if we feel the spirit to do something, we
need to act on those feelings, and then we will see the change in our life.
4. SOMETHING EXCITING
THAT HAPPENED THIS WEEK: Well, 2 days
ago, the powerlines above our house exploded... Literally just into a huge
explosion haha, and so we haven`t had power in our house for 2 days, and it
won`t be up until maybe tomorrow, but we aren`t for sure. It`s been fun. We
have candles that we use for light. It`s really fun. And then everyday with my
comp is exciting! He has been a great trainer! I have loved being with him. He
is so fun, but gets down to business when we need to, and he is just the best!
5. SOMETHING WE CAN PRAY FOR YOU FOR: Baptisms... Our one last week got moved to
hopefully this week. We aren`t 100% sure. But we do have one for sure this week
with Brenda!!! I am so happy for her! She is such an amazing person!!!!
Definitely touched by the spirit of God!!!! I can`t wait!!!
I love you all so
much!!! Thank you for everything you do for me! You are all amazing!!!!!
