Summer lovin, happened so fast.....
well the beach part is true but the summer part.... different story. We are
just getting started. Buuuuuutttttt Guess who went to the beach this week?
That's right. Not gonna lie, it was a bit dissapointing. I was really looking
forward to sand. Well spoiler alert no sand- just dirt, rocks and dirty water-
We had a stake activity to clean the beach. Well like everything here the
activity was ridiculously unorganized and lasted like seven hours longer than
it was supposed to (no complaints here) haha but it was great. Here is a pic of
me and Hna R, soaking in the sun (she's actually allergic, turns out that really
is a real thing hahaha) and the district. They're pretty awesome, this group of
missionaries. let me tell ya-
Anyways this week we were out
contacting and a man came up to us. Well both mine and hna R's response was
like ahhh, run!!! But thats why you don't judge people. Because then he told us
that he drinks all the time but that his sister is mormon and he wants to
change his life. Pretty cool right- The thing is he was really sincere about
it. But he has a long way to go, and a lot of addictions to conquor before he
can be baptized. But still it was so cool. Sweet is the work.
We also started teaching Karin's
husband. Which is awesome. We have really been challenged to have weekly
baptisms. Which is really a challenge to find and baptize families. Which leads
us to a whole new league of problems as literally no one here is married! It is
so frustrating! I mean seriously I thought this was bad in the US, well it's
not. The other problem is that lots of our investigators are married but are
divorced and living with someone else... Really? But Karin and Henry are
MARRIED!!!!! YAY! and Karin is really progressing. She came to church this week
and now we are working on getting henry to come too. But it's been really cool
as we've started to teach him as well as Karin. Because I know how much the gospel
can really help them in their lives-
Anyways yeah, we are just getting ready for Christmas! It is going to be a HOT one. And wow I heard there was some exciting church news...... I am so glad you guys now get to have church at 11!!! What a blessing. It really is the best time no? maybe people will think we are a righteous family if you guys can make it to church on time. I mean we do live so FAR away. (from the church, obvi) ha well. time is running away from me! I will talk to you guys next week!!!!! YAYAYAYA!!!
Have a good Christmas break until
then! And Bella wow! You looked sooooooooooo gorgous for your ballet
performance! I LOVE YOUR hair!
Also dad, happy birthday this week.
I hope its a good one!
Right now I am trying to remember
what else I was going to say but forgot............ha probs should just give
up- talk to you soon! literally!
