Hola Familia!
Not much to report this week. Mostly we just worked at the Easter Pageant. I finally took some pictures for you but I forgot to bring the cord for the camera. Fail. We did have a couple of investigators come to the Easter Pageant which was really cool. Ana came with a lady in the ward, and Daniela came with our ward mission leader’s wife and her two daughters. Ana is getting baptized this Saturday 🙂 She’s really excited about it and we made sure to give her invitations so she can invite her friends and family. Please pray for us and her, because we still need to teach her all the commandments besides the word of wisdom :O

I got my package on Saturday. The package of peeps is currently sitting open out on my desk so they can get dried out just enough to the perfect texture. Thanks guys. Ha, and I tried to send Rebekah a package last week but it just got sent back to me. So, I’ll try again, but no promises. The united states postal service and I are developing quite the love hate relationship here on the mission.

Hello Familia!

You will all be happy to see pictures from BAPTISMS!! So, I already told you about Edwin who is still awesome, and 11. I also think I’ve told you about Santiago before. When I was in Mesagrande Hna Falcon and I taught him the first 3 lessons, most of the commandments, and he got most of the way through 2 Nephi, but he would never commit to a date. Anyways, he finally committed to a date and he was baptized this weekend. Hna Lamb wasn’t feeling well so I went with Hna Tejada. It was really fun being back in Mesagrande, and really neat seeing someone else get baptized in that area. The work there is slow.  Anyways, Hna Falcon told me that when Santiago was getting his confirmation blessing he was promised he’d get to bring members of his family into the church, and that he’d be able to help and be an example for his grand kids. He also received the Aronic priesthood and he’s really excited to do the work for his son that passed away. Before he told me that when he would read the scriptures he’d read 2 pages for himself and then 2 more for his son.

I don’t really know what to say about this week. Mostly I’m really tired. I love Hna Lamb but she tires me out. There’s lots of extra things like needing to do her hair in the morning because she can’t with her one arm. We also aren’t able to work as much which is hard for me.

Rachel, how is your new companionship?   Where is Sister Lamb from?  What is your favorite thing about her?
Hna Lamb is from Panama, but her parents are American. So, she speaks both languages fluently and actually she almost never speaks to me in Spanish, but we’re working on that. Her Spanish was really hard to understand at first because she talks really fast and eats her S’s. I like her cause she’s super bold and we don’t mess around. Continue reading “shooort”

Why does getting married disqualify Rene for citizenship?
I don’t know. I don’t make the dumb laws, and I really wasn’t worried about any of them until David got deported and then all of a sudden it was an issue with everyone. Sheila found out this weekend that she’s pregnant so, that might change things? Continue reading “Hey ya’ll”

Ok, this is the things I have to talk about this week.
1. French Cafe Breakfast
So, the stake relief society put on an activity and it was ridiculous/awesome. They decided to do a French Cafe thing and have a breakfast at 9 o’clock. So, I ate eclairs, that egg stuff that I cannot spell the name of, creme puffs, strawberries, and was a happy panda. Continue reading “all the wild horses”
