Week 23

So last Monday I didn't have a lot of time to talk so I will try to explain everything last week and this week. So last week we did a service project at a church in our zone and we bagged all the leaves and trash in the yard of the church and there was a ton. Also, there were coconut trees and we drank the milk from the coconuts and we had coke in a coconut shell! Haha, but we wanted more so we decided to climb a 20 to 22 foot coconut tree to get more coconuts! Haha, good think we had so many people lifting us up and making sure we wouldnt fall, but to bad we weren't high enough to get any that had really good milk or food inside it.

Also, the zone leaders stayed at our house one night and all four of us had to sleep on two beds. That sucked, but it was because a member in their ward kinda threatened them and so for precaution they came to our house to party all night! Haha jk, but everything is good now because the member isn't in Zacapa and he really isn't a person to do that kind of stuff. Thank goodness! haha!

Also, I received my calender today! Thanks you so much! It's awesome, it's definetly going to be hard to not think about you guys but I will be fine! haha.

So this Tuesday was the mark of my 5 months and in about 2 or 3 weeks I will have my 6th month in the field and I will be burning my first tie! I will choose an ugly one so I dont lose a good one. Like colton said in his email I am not sure if I will be here in Zacapa for another change because I have been here for 4 months and just the way changes have been I will most likely leave. But where ever God wants me I will know that there will be a reason for me to leave or a reason for me to stay!

This week has been such a fast week here because we had divisions with the assistants and also we had a multi zone meeting with three of the four zones outside the capital. It was amazing to recieve instruction from president and the assistants on how we can improve our teaching and helping our investigators. Me and Elder Merrill had Elder Gomez with us who can speak perfect English and is just an amazing teacher. We definetly learned so much from him. He's from Guatemala and is leaving this change though.

Also, this week I sent a pic of an iguana and its about 3 feet long...it's huge but the good thing is that it can't climb the walls anymore but they cut off one toe on each foot and with out those toes it cant climb. It's cool to think that just without one of the five toes it has, it can't climb walls anymore.

Also, we have an awesome story! Well it's good for us, but not good for the person...so we found out that some one was baptized and then confirmed like 9 months after he was baptized and you can't do that, so he has to get baptized again! and he has a date for this month! yay! Also, this week we had two investigators in church this week! What a great feeling that our prayers and our hard work has started to show!

Also, this girl that has always attended church but just turned 8 just got baptised this last week! And guess what? She wanted me to baptize her! I'm just super happy that we are starting to progress in the work and help others progress in their salvation.

Well thats it! Love you guys!
