I love you guys so much! I was so excited to hear that John and Heather had their baby! I love him already! He is such a cutie! I miss him!
This week was super good! Jaky was married and baptized all on the same day Saturday! It was so much fun! I got to be a witness on their wedding papers! I am so happy for her! I sang Yo se que vive mi senor at her baptism! There were SO many people at her baptism!
One thing happened last week that I forgot to mention. haha we were going to see Maximina and Filiberto and a woman opened the door that I had never seen in my life and she said that Maximina was busy. I had never seen this woman.. so I thought she was just lying because she didnt want us to see Maximina. So, I looked at her and I said is it okay if we come in for just a second to give her a hug? The lady kind of annoyed said okay. So we entered.. and there were five evangelic pastors in her room. When I saw this... I started to back up to leave, because I knew that this would not be a good idea... but, one of the pastors came over and shook my hand and told us to enter. Everything they were teaching was bad. It was giving me really bad anxiety! The spirit of the Lord was definitely not there! After their little rant, I was hoping they would all leave... but, they all just looked at us, waiting for us to say something. So, we sang a hymn and said a prayer. Then I shared a scripture about coming unto Christ. Then one of the pastors was trying to like fight me... so, we left... but, it was super awkward.. I had really bad anxiety after that experience.
After Jakys wedding, her husband was talking to us.. and he said hewas sad that his dad couldnt be there (his dad died like 2 months ago) and then we explained that God has a plan for us. After Jakys baptism... he was talking to us and was saying the same thing about his dad.. so I shared my experience here in the mission.. I told him that serving a mission is really hard and that I miss my family so much. I told him that I miss giving my dad a big hug and kiss and that it is really hard to be here without my family. But, I told him that the reason I am here is because I already have a forever family. I told him that he will be able to see his dad again... but, he just needs to accomplish a few things here on earth to be able to see him. After that, he said that he wants to meet with us.
We have another baptism this Saturday! Barbara! She has 11 years! When we walked into her room.. she was reading the book of mormon that we gave her. She was showing us all of the scriptures that she found that she likes. She lives with Jaky. Her parents are in the US. They just kind of left her here and it is really sad. But, she is definitely so cute. I am really excited for her baptism!
Serving a mission is the hardest thing I have ever done in my life. I knew it was going to be hard. But, it is a lot harder than I thought it would be.. but, I also love it a lot here. I never knew my ability to love would increase by 100 fold. The Church of Jesus Christ is SO true. It changes peoples lives. It has changed my life and continues to change my life every single day.
I love you guys! Give Carter a big hug and kiss for me.
Love you guys!
