HEy family!
Things are going well. Time is already flying by super
quickly... With helping my comp prepare for him going home, it´s crazy to think
that that will be me in several weeks. But I still have time :) So I will use
it to my advantage and work as hard as possible. We are still going strong with
lessons and investigators. If everything works out perfectly this week we
should have 3 baptisms on Sunday. Pray for them! Their interviews are on
thursday.
President had to close a lot of areas this last week because
of the lack of missionaries.... stupid visa problems. Us gringos are a dying
breed! Soon it will be a mission only filled with latins. Which is fine! It´s
better to serve in your own country anyway. I think I lost 6-8 months of my
mission trying to learn the language where if I were serving in the US I could
have jumped straight into the work. But I am grateful for my experiences, and
wouldn´t trade them for anything. It was EXACTLY what i needed. and that´s
whythe Lord put me here.
THat´ll be a nice break for Dad to be able to have another
day off. Give you guys some more time together.
Good news! They finally got the paperwork to start my visa
papers to leave legally! So we shouldn´t have any problems to come back :) I
was super happy. Everything should work out perfectly.
And in only 2 weeks we´ll be talking on skype :) WE´ve
already got a family lined up to use their computer. It should go perfectly!
Lov eyou guys and we´ll talk soon.
