I love you!
And also we had two more baptisms! BAH!!! Ok, it was so awesome. So Lesly (wife of last weeks baptism) got baptized and Marlon (her husband) baptized her! How cool is that?! It was so special. and she is so tiny that her little foot kept popping up so she had to be baptized 3 times. But it all turned out ok. Marlon was SO nervous too! Aw it was cute.
And then we also had Eveline get baptized! Such an awesome woman. Her husband is a member, but he was less active. We had given her so many different dates for her baptism and she just kept turning them down. Then finally we had a family night at the house of the pres. of relief society and we challenged her again. That was on friday night, and she said yes and was baptized on Sunday! SO AWESOME!!!
I have pictures, I´ll send those later.
We got the opportunity to watch a girl become a nun the other day. Actually 2... it was so weird. We saw this massive group of people all standing around a van and 2 nuns hopped in. People were taking pictures, there were men in suits, Hermana Merrell asked if Mother Teresa was in town, turns out she´s actually been dead for a while (who knew?!) and then the van took those two girls away! What?! Thats the worst! I dont think they come back!
Ok, so the mission is changing me, just btdubs. I dont even care what I eat! How did that happen? I eat peppers and all the weird veggies now that I would normally leave for the garbage. Most of the time I have no idea what I´m eating... seriously.. but as long as I dont ask, I am still able to eat it. Oh, and I gave a bit of marital advice using doctrine! Didn´t think I would be doing that, but whadda ya know? It happened.
The picture sitch: a)sorry I forgot to say something about this.. I keep forgetting to. B) I think I will just email pics occasionaly and keep the memory cards with me. I think its the safest bet. Plus I dont think I´ll be taking 7000 pictures on my mission. And then you can all see the fulness of my picture library in 18 months. :)
Oh, start thinking about what things you want from Guatemala. I know I have pretty much all of my mission left, but if I can just get the things as I go I wont be so stressed at the end. :)
Ok... time for the bad news... ish... We have been here for one change now. that means another change is coming... tomorrow.. and yesterday we got a call... and Hna Santana is going.... so I´ll be recieving a new trainer... we´re not thrilled... in fact we´re pretty bummed. Hna Santana is the best trainer in the world. So hopefully we continue to grow with our next trainer like we have with Hna Santana.
Oh, and here is a scripture for you: Alma 36:12-21
:) ok, I love love love you! All of you!
Love, Hermana Evans
