We will be having two baptisms this Friday!! So excited!
They are just great people and have progressed so much. Ive really seen the
Lord´s hand in their lives. Both do not understand things very well because of
little schooling and one is a major alcoholic. The alcoholic is named Octavio.
Hes 58 years old and such a humble man. We only told him twice to stop drinking
( he's been drinking his whole life) and he completely dropped smoking,
drinking, and coffee in 2 weeks! Incredible. ¨whom the Lord calls, He prepares¨
I have definitely seen this happening.
The mission is incredible! This week we basically aren't
going to be doing anything though! We have soo many activities planned. We are
going to a ranch on Wednesday as a zone activity and I heard its totally sweet
so that'll be exciting and then on Friday we have the baptisms and on Saturday
Elder Oaks is coming to speak to all the missionaries in the whole mission! So
excited..and I'm in the choir. Yikes..don't know why they put me in there. But
anyways until next week! Which are transfers this coming Monday! Wow, crazy
fast this transfer went by.
Love you all!

we had a conference this week with our stake (but its only a
district). Anyways we were in the choir and these dresses are traditional
dresses in Oaxaca! Chiapas also has them. Anyway, they have the headband
things and you have to do your hair a special way with braids and things. I
felt like one of the 10 virgins but it was really cool to wear them and be
apart of that little experience. These shirts and dresses are hand made! Every
little flower and everything! crazy. They are so beautiful but super hot.
Also, its traditional for the boys to wear ties with these
hand sewn flowers. It may seem girly but they are so sweet and come in so many
different colors! Its totally awesome!
Also this is a family that we have been teaching and they
want to be baptized! they have been changing so fast, so rapidly its
incredible! They are so awesome and such a blessing to me.
