Well, it was great to be able to talk to you all! I wish I
could've heard a little better, but beggars can't be choosers! It was awesome.
Happy Mother's Day, Mom! I hope it ended well!
So this week wasn't too crazy. Nothing really happened.
We're working hard with G to help him kick his addiction. But he's doing
great! He loves church and is excited to be baptized! He is so excited to be completely
clean...that's what he keeps telling us. I'm SO excited for him as well. Just
gotta keep his spirit up!
This week, one of our investigators, J, FINALLY went to
church. AND she loved it. She saw the pila outside and said that she would be
baptized one day. She's awesome. Last week I was pretty hard on her (but the
Spirit was still there!)...she didn't go to church last week after commiting to
go..and she was sad because she hadn't sold a single thing in her store that
day...and I told her it was because she hadn't gone to church. And it helped
her realize what was most important! haha.
It has been so hot lately! I try wearing my glasses, but the
light just reflects into my eyes...the liiiiiiiiiiight! It burns! haha. It
rained reaaaaally hard when we were at a cita with G last night. Between
the rain pounding on the metal roof and the catholic party going on next door,
I didn't hear much during that lesson. I just kept sharing scriptures with
G and made him read them...haha.
So you asked about the food last night but i didn't really
answer. Well, the food doesn't vary much here. Half of the plate is always
covered with beans and rice...and then the other half is a ''salad'' of
cucumbers or shredded lettuce with lemon juice...or avocados...and then there's
usually some kind of meat...usually chicken. But we just eat meat because we
pay someone to cook for us. Typical Nica meals don't require meat. I've learned
to really appreciate freshpicked mangos. They're SO good! I love them. Also, I
now am addicted to avocados with just a pinch of salt..or lemon juice. SO good!
I love fresh food! So glad I grew out of my ''i hate vegetables streak''.
Well, that's about it for now! I know that this church is
true, which is why I'm in Nicaragua working my hardest to help everyone here
understand the importance of how the Gospel of Jesus Christ has been restored
hoy en dia. It's the best! I love this Gospel so much and am so grateful that
Heavenly Father loves us enough to bless us with the truth. It's amazing!
Love you!
