This week was a crazy one!! This last Saturday my Zone baptized 9 people
and had three weddings (mine was one of them) President Russell and Hermana
Russell came to our baptism!! Our couple almost didn’t get married because Satan
is a big bully! They got their house taken away and lost some of the Wedding
papers Hermana Anna said nope I am done I am not doing this I looked and her
and said do you have faith in Jesus or Satan annnnd she got married I kind of
Machetera her but President said we CANNOT let our investigators make bad
decisions

Also funny story but super sad.... One companionship of sisters in my
Zone were supposed to have a baptism but the guy got scared in the font and
jumped out and ran for his life out of the church. The Zone Leaders chased
after him INTO OUR AREA and got lost and didn’t think to call us for
help.....oh dear elders....
This week we were doing daying planning and relaxing outside at the end
of our day and the people we live with were all down stairs outside and all the
sudden all of them started screaming.... My companion and I ran to see what was
up and there was a HUGE ox running through the street... oh man Nicaragua is
awesome hahaha
We have an investigator he is 28 years old and he is always wanting to
impress my companion and I and this last Sunday he texted our mission leader
and said please tell the sisters I can’t go to church I am in Managua but our
mission leader didn’t tell us that so we were calling and calling and calling
him and he called and said I am coming I just need to take a taxi so this poor
guy shows up to the church and is RUNNING and he falls.... oh man.... I almost
died he got up and said Hermanas Hermanas Hermanas I am here!!
There is a lady in our Branch that doesn’t have a leg and she lives WAY
WAY WAY out in the middle of nowhere but she WALKS with here crutch thingies to
work EVERY SUNDAY if that isn’t inspiration I don’t know what is!!
The enchiladas here are WAY WAY WAY different than in the US hahaha WAY
different but SUPER good one of my favorite foods!! I love Nicaraguan food!
Well most of it :)
Well I love the work here and hope you are all doing well and staying
safe and happy! Serve your fellow men and love the Lord!! More from me next
week!! Love you all!
