I had a great great great
week. It has been a lot lot lot better! I have felt the spirit so
strong this week. I have decided to do everything in my power to become
as close to Christ as I can for the rest of my
life and It honestly has changed my life and the way I look at
everything. I love being on a mission. I know this is the right place
for me to be. Haha funny story, a member of the ward gave me a letter
this week at church and it was saying how she was the
black panther that eats chickens or something weird like that and then
started prophesying in the letter and oh man it was so crazy. She was
like saying things about my future haha, me and my comp were cracking
up. Shes a nice nice lady. Okay this week was
so great. Well half great half not. We had a lot of appointments fall
through and people yell at us and a guy’s dog almost bit my face but other than that it was great.
The Hermana’s in my area
have been teaching a family of 7 and they got baptized this week. We
went so my companion who is the district leader could interview them. I
played with all their little kids and they were
learning English so I taught them more colors and stuff like that you
know. It was honestly so great. I had the wonderful opportunity to
baptize the mom and I am so happy for them and hope that they keep going
to church. Everything else this week was so great…the
food, all the people, the weather
even though it was so hot...and oh my
gosh so much rain, like both gutters were like a foot deep of water holy
cow! My companion’s shoes are so broke and his feet got soaked. I was
going to take a picture but we were in a huge
hurry to a meeting! I will try to send pictures but all the computers
are so broken haha but I will try to find a way! I love it here!
We are like 10 minutes
from the mission home and I have only seen my mission president like 3
times! I have a hard time communicating with him because his English is
mas o menos (more or less) but I will be able
to talk to him or try to once I can speak better. I am super interested
in learning more languages when I get home too! I think that we will
need them here pretty soon in the world.
I hope that everyone is
great at home! Through the church and Jesus Christ we can solve any
problem or overcome any trial! This week we had some serious miracles
with money. We are poor haha. We have had 150 pesos
for the last two weeks, which is like less than 10 bucks. Haha. First
was, I found 200 pesos in my pocket that I have no idea whos they were
but I know they weren't mine because they were folded up all weird. Then
the next day another lady gave us a 100. When
we went to go to the grocery store we had both of our stuff separated
out on the conveyor belt thing and the guy put like half of my stuff
with my companions and then rung them up together and I was like oh
man... what is going on.
After he had rung it up he realized and
said sorry but it was too late and we said it was fine. Everything that
was put on my companions ticket was like discounted if you bought more
than one. We wouldn't of had any money for
the week, if not for these things. I know that the Lord is looking out
for us in everything that we do if we are looking unto him in everything
we do. Elder Hawley signing out.
