Dear Family,
So how was it??? Was the weather just perfect? Who all went??? Did the Easter Bunny find you guys??? Only one more and then I will be heading up there with you guys too!!!
Havasupi huh??? Wow! It is already that time agin! That should be a complete blast and I can´t wait to see pictures! That is pretty cool also with the walking stick dad! Do you think you could send me a pic or something! I would love to see it! When do you guys head down for that adventure????
I have felt the earthquakes yes while I am here! I have one super funny experience about one actually, so on moms day remind me cause its hard to describe just writing!
I am so sorry about the Amandi thing, that doesn´t make things easy but that is super awesome about Tess and Blake and them stepping up to help!!!
As for the jungle here, this week was an interesting week, let me start from the begininng. The past week and the week before I felt just down right horrible and sick to my stomach that I will be going now three months without a baptism and I seriously felt horrible! Cause I felt like the Lord called me here to cry repentance unto His people and for them to be baptized and I couldn´t even do that!!! It was seriously so rough and every day I was going out and working my butt off trying to find and teach people and do all I could for the branch here and what not and it just didn´t seem to be going like I had invisioned in my brain! So it was rough and this past Friday I had the opportunity to have an interview with Presidente Glazier of the mission and I told him everything and how I felt and honestly I was so close to just crying and giving up! He is truly an incredible man!! He sat and listened to me and then he had me read from the scriptures and preach my gosepl, about a successful missionary. They were all about it's not about baptisms that measures how great a missionary is. Then he spoke to me about our branch and how he hasn´t seen it this strong and so many active members in years! It was truly incredible! I was after able to put three dates for baptism on the calendar for the next month!!! It was truly a blessing!! So I am blessed and sometimes we need to take a step back and look at the whole picture because He is incharge of the Harvest not me! He will bless me and those around me by the way He knows is best!! It was truly amazing and I am so grateful for Pres. Glazier!!!
That is truly about it for this week and that Easter was rather interesting cause here there is tons of catholics and that is the national religion, so everyone practically got the whole week off and every day was different and the big day was Friday for them! I was busy Friday with Interviews and helping other Elders with their baptism and then our weekly Family Home Evening that we teach to everyone that wants to come and listen and play, so I wasn´t able to see them all and what they do, but from what I hear it is pretty cool!!
Well family that is about all I have for ya this week!! I love you all, especially you mom to the moon and back and then some!!!
Hope you all have a great week!! That the lord may be with you and, and give my bro Ster a huge for me!!!!! I am so excited for him!!!!!!! (:
