My family!!  

I love you guys!  

This week has been so great!  Yesterday we bought new shoes for Hna Yepez so her feet hopefully wont hurt so bad.  But other than that, things are super great!  I might have forgotten to write anything down to remember to tell you guys again... so this might be a short letter.... but!  I do have a VERY funny story.  

So we were sitting in church in the Gospel Principles class and a very old man named Hno Chico was called on to answer a question.  But he just responded my shaking his finger and saying, "tengo dolor de la cabeza" (I have a headache) and then another very old man Named Martin said "y si la quitamos?" (and if we take it off?) Haha.... as if that wasnt funny enough........ Carlos, the teacher and branch mission leader, walks upto Chico and starts vigorously rubbing his head and neck.  We were talking about death and the spirit world..... and HE KEPT TEACHING THE LESSON!!  Hahaha... and Chico continued to make comments about death and what not, meanwhile, Carlos is litterally pulling Chicos hair and scalp all over the place.  DURING THE LESSON GUYS!  He just kept teaching!  I was laughing so hard silently!  It was horrible, but SO FUNNY!!  

We also had a lesson with a woman named Telma.  She is pilas.  In the lesson she asked how we found her because she talked to missionaries before, but they never came to visit her.  So we were in the lesson and she told us how she really felt the love of God when we came into her house.  She felt the Holy Ghost when she read the Book of Mormon and the folleto we left, pamphlet is what that thing is called, sorry, but anywho, we challenged her to be baptized on the 13 of october... and I feel like she will make a really great member of the San Martin branch.  Maybe she hid from us yesterday, but not to worry, we will find her and baptize her.  

Another thing!!  So we were in a lesson with Marco Tulio, sorry if i havent mentioned him.  He is awesome.  Just has to get married!!  And his wife doesnt want to right now.. but he taught the lesson last night and he chose the topic of baptism.  SUCH A COOL LESSON!  He was asigning scriptures, asking questions (questions that he really had, but still, it was awesome!) And he even had a snack all ready to go for the end.  Hes a regular member!  

We made more cake yesterday.  Thats a thing now, we are going to make cake and take it to a family every week.  Its sa darn fun!  I also may have gained a ton of weight eating all this cake and pan dulce, but what the heck?  How often do you get to make cake made in a toaster and eat real guatemala bread?  The bread is the best here too, just btdubs.  

Ok, I cant think of anything else.... THank you and I love you!

Be safe and happy and I love you!

Love, Hermana Evans
