Hey everyone! Hope everyone is doing well.
Well
this week has been exciting! In my last email I talked about Halloween but the
day after that is Dia de los Vivos (Day of the living) and the next day is Dia
do los Muertos (day of the dead). There was a lot of parties and people
drinking those days and almost no one was home. There was also a concert right
outside, by the cemetery that we live really close by. There was music all
night long.
We
were contacting the other day and decided to knock on a door. We waited and
knocked again and then someone came to the door. We started talking to this
lady who was really stressed out over these papers she was preparing for her
kids that she taught and we told her we could help her so she invited us in. We
helped her, talked with her then after taught her a little about the
Restoration. When we got to the part of the Great Apostasy, we invited her to
read the scripture in Amos about there being a famine in the land. She was so
worried and asked when it was going to happen and we explained that it had
passed. We then told about Joseph Smith and ended it there because she had
something to do but she asked us to return. She has family that are members. It
was a really good experience and I felt the spirit with us as we testified of
Joseph Smith and Jesus Christ.
Saturday
night the funniest thing happened. My companion went to her clothing rack and
removed a clothes hanger and suddenly it broke and fell. It was so funny! And
now her clothes are on a blanket on the floor. We're waiting for a new one. My
companion is the best! Here she is standing with her hanger in shock.
Today
we played sports and then went to eat pizza with some other missionaries. Here
we are altogether with our food:
Love
you all!
